Chapter 1
‘Mr Seel, are you alright?’ asked Mr Richards as he helped him to his feet. Daniel had fainted in the candy factory, but he was able to recover, thanks to Mr Richards’ assistance. Mr Richards’ assistant brought a chair from the office for Daniel. Daniel sat down on the chair and then took off his jacket. Another member of the staff brought him a cup of tea. ‘Thank you,’ said Daniel. Daniel was a reasonably tall man with a clean-shaven face. He is forty-five years old and just had his birthday two days ago. It is a spring morning in August when he arrives in Melbourne from Munich. Daniel was still feeling exhausted from his long flight. He had travelled all the way to visit Tildam Confectionary whereby he would visit the confectionery factory to watch the manufacturing process and sample some sweets.

‘Daniel, I suggest you to see a doctor,’ Mr Richards said seriously.
‘No, I’m quite alright,’ said Daniel.
‘I insist,’ said Mr Richards, offering to drive him to the doctor’s office.
‘Where did you park your car?’ asked Mr Richards.
‘I parked it near the parking lot on the side of the road,’ said Daniel.
‘That’s fine. I’ll drive you to the doctor,’ said Mr Richards. Daniel got into Mr Richards car, slightly hesitant, but he soon relaxed as he listened to his favourite music on the radio. After a drive of forty-five minutes, they reached the doctor’s office. It was a sunny day
