00:00I got chatting and he asked me to work for him in Harrods, and I said I'd love to but
00:11I can't, I'm underage, and he said it's fine, we can find a way, and obviously for me I
00:19was of course, how amazing.
00:22I had started working at Harrods when I had just turned 15.
00:25I was told not to talk about my age.
00:28I started to see him at the beginning like a father figure, just one of the best intentions
00:32for me.
00:33And then as time went on, I just started to see some weird, like the longer hugs and the
00:39longer kisses.
00:40And then the phone calls started happening on my mobile, my 15 year old, and he's now
00:46calling my personal mobile.
00:48He was in a funny mood, like a very bad mood.
00:52Started just getting really, like hugging me and touchy and feely and rubbing himself
00:57against me, and then he just grabbed my face and tried to just basically put his tongue
01:06in my mouth.
01:07I mentioned that I was 15 and what are you doing, and he said I was turning into a beautiful
01:13woman and grabbed my chest.
01:16I pushed him off and he saw I was freaked out and scared, and he just went into a rage
01:25and just started screaming at me and just...
01:34Sorry.
01:36I was a child when this happened.
01:39You know, he was nearly 80 and I was 15.
01:42I went to my parents and we all thought the best people maybe to talk to were the police.
01:47I was reporting child sex abuse within a working place.
