Ambition Plot

Hart Lovelace is a secretary with too much ambition. Bitter from not achieving the life he wanted, he curses every analyst, banker, and fresh-faced new hire to walk through the firm's doors. His boss is no good and neither is anyone else. No matter how hard he tries, he can't get anywhere. Evil Batlet—full name Eveline, but call him Evil—is a financial associate. Smug, satisfied, and utterly secure in himself, he lives like Hart wishes he could. Evil has a bright future, with a ladder to climb and promotions to look forward to. So when Evil approaches him with a thinly veiled proposition, Hart sees his chance. To pull himself up or drag Evil down, they'll find out.
