Chapter 71 A Chance Encounter

• Daniel leaned back in his chair, the soft hum of conversation and the clinking of glasses filling the air around him. He was at his favorite café in the city, a cozy little spot tucked away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. The place had a warm, inviting atmosphere, with exposed brick walls, wooden beams, and soft lighting that made it the perfect spot for catching up with friends.
• Across from him sat Greg, an old friend from college. They had known each other for years, their friendship built on a shared love of sports, good food, and the occasional debate about the latest trends in technology. Today, they were catching up over coffee, the conversation flowing easily as they discussed everything from work to weekend plans.
• “So, how’s work been treating you?” Daniel asked, taking a sip of his coffee.
