When Crystal glanced at the calendar, she was surprised to find it was already Friday, as the days had passed swiftly.
For the past few days, she had been engrossed in handling new projects and engaging in business negotiations.

James had a business meeting at lunchtime that Crystal didn't need to attend. Instead of going to the cafeteria, she took a break and went to the rooftop to relax.
As she sat down, prepared to enjoy her sandwich in peaceful silence, she couldn't help but overhear the animated conversation nearby.
