Mr Roy is a very smart businessman. He exports garments from India to Europe. He has a lot of suppliers in Delhi, too.

Good morning, Mr Roy”, said Mrs Jain.
“Good morning, Mrs Jain”, said Mr Roy. “How’re you?”
“Oh, perfect! How about you?”
“Couldn’t be better! Please have a seat. Would you like some coffee?”
“Thanks. That would be fine. This is a nice sofa here, Mrs Jain.”
“Thank you. I bought it last month.”
“I think it’s a bit hot today.”
“Oh yes it is. Shall I turn on the AC?”
“That would be very nice of you, thank you!”
“Oh, not at all!”
