His working place is just by the window. So he can overlook the buildings outside.
The business centre has got 21 stories. There are secured parking places outside so Chris is able to park his car. The offices look so colorful and it’s so pleasant to work in here.
Every morning Chris is having breakfast at the lounge cafe. The prices are reasonable and the meal is quite delicious there.
Chris has always dreamt about such a place.
