The woman chuckled, keeping her gaze fixed on Beeji. “I never suspected you were the Chandra who had an appointment with Karishma. . .

Deedee ji.

A flash of lightening. A rolling thunder peels across the dark, ethereal plain. . .

And how long have you been Miss Chawla’s personal secretary?”

The dark plane rumbled with laughter.

The woman’s potent eyes flashed, but she too managed a smile.

“No, no, no,

Deedeeji,
