must invariably follow my rules and regulations” He said firmly.

“Then I need one more clarification sir, whether these tests are necessary for men also in your group of company’s sir?” She asked him without any hesitation.

Now Mr. Gentleman became stale. So far nobody raised this point and nor did he put the restrictions to men in his GM Group of Companies. There was no say from him, or he dared to answer her.

“Your silence makes me believe that men are exception to such tests sir. Then how cheap are the women in your opinion sir? In fact these are not only my questions, but they would be raised universally sir. And no woman would tolerate even to hear such a test through the mouth of anybody sir” Dr. Jasmine tried to suppress her anger; and in return challenged him rather politely.

To escape gently and to avoid her politely, he chose a via media path of putting her in a state of confusion.

“My dear gentle lady, no more discussions please; and finally what I want to impress upon you is that you better think twice before signing on the agreement. And you need not sign immediately. If you want time you can avail and I have no objection please” He told her convincingly.

“It’s okay and I feel it is not necessary to waste any more precious time either of you or of mine sir; and I agree with the clauses and conditions therein your agreement sir” Dr. Jasmine agreed in principle with his offer.

“Thank you my gentle lady. As a first step you have to take an oath not to disclose it to anyone, especially the judiciary, the women’s associations, and the human rights commission”

“Are you suspecting that I would go legally against you sir?” She said seriously as he suspected her bona fides.

“Whether you may or may not go against me, but as a precaution I certainly follow these procedures” He made his mind very clear.

“Then it’s okay”

Later he gave her a bond paper containing the pledge to sign on it.

“Please remember Miss. Jasmine when once you sign you will have to undergo all the tests including the virginity test of course and you better think twice before you sign”

She did not hesitate and she took the bond paper and signed on all the agreement papers presuming that it were only the pledge.

“That is nice. And now the tests are pending, are you ready to get tested now itself dear?”

“Okay sir”

“Now will you please go to my suit at once?” “What?”She was taken aback and said.

“Yes my gentle lady you have simply signed on the bond paper and you better go to my suit”

“What nonsense is this? Are you testing my patience? Or do you think that women are so cheap to sleep with you?” She became furious.

“Sorry my gentle lady and please don’t mistake me. There is a team of doctors inside the suit waiting for you to conduct their tests”

“But I doubt and how can I trust you?”

“You may verify first and then say, but not hypothetically Miss. Jasmine”

She opened the door of the Chairman’s anti- room. It was his personal suit. There was a team of two lady doctors and two nurses present in the suit.

“Sorry” She said.

“Now I hope you will withdraw your poor opinion on me”

“Sure” She said and went in.

Mr. Gentleman was waiting for her outside the suit. All the medical tests pertaining to confirm her virginity were completed and Miss. Jasmine came out from his suit room.

“So shall I hope that I am appointed sir?” Miss. Jasmine immediately asked him.

“No, when once the medical reports confirm your virginity only you will be appointed as my PS Miss. Jasmine”

“Still you doubt me sir?”

“I am a hundred percent business man. And I certainly follow rules and regulations, which are mandatory and should be implemented in all my group of companies in true spirit. And you can’t be an exception. Please wait for sometime Miss. Jasmine” Said the Chairman firmly.

It was a cosmopolitan club. There was a group of house wives of a reputed builder in the city, of a class one civil contractor, a famous industrialist and the kept- mistress of a famous real estate owner were playing cards. “Five thousand Dollars” The wife of a civil contractor said.

“Sorry minimum amount should be ten thousand Dollars” The wife of an industrialist, Mrs. Bharathi said to make sure the rules in the three card show.

“Ten thousand” The kept mistress of a real estate owner Miss. Sailaja threw a bunch of US Dollars on the table.

“Twenty Thousand” The better half of a builder Mrs. Urmila threw a bundle of US Dollars on the table.

“Forty thousand” Mrs. Bharathi threw an open challenge.

“That’s all, please show” The other ladies either controlled themselves or losing confidence, or conirming Mrs. Bharathi might be the winning horse, since the day one the club was started, she had been participating in the game and never had she ever lost any game since then to till date.

“Still I am in the race and challenging you all. But why have you all stopped betting? Are you accepting this time also I would definitely win?”

“Let us see” The wife of the builder Mrs. Urmila said sarcastically.

They were playing the cards not only to make money but also to get some kind of relief and entertainment for themselves.

“Show” Miss. Sailaja with fond hope showed the cards of one king and two queens.

“Sorry bad luck dear you lost, but I won” So said Mrs. Urmila and turned her three cards, two kings and one queen. “No it is mine” Mrs. Sarita, the wife of the class one civil contractor said confidently and kept three cards one after the other.

And the first card was Ace and the second card was king and the third one is the queen.

Now all the three are anxiously looking at

Mrs. Bharathi.

She put the cards one after the other on the table. The first one was Ace, the second one was also Ace and the third card was also surprisingly Ace.

And Mrs. Bharathi grabbed all the dollars; and her vanity bag is not sufficient to carry them. She called her driver, who was a young and dynamic boy of 28 yrs, and his name was Siddhartha @ Siddu brought a brief case and put the dollars in it.

“It it is lunch time for all, I am going now and we will again assemble here in the evening and play some more time” So saying she got up from the table.

“I forgot to remind you my friends, while coming for evening show don’t forget to bring dollars not in vanity bag, but in brief case, because we have to kill more time in the evening session, perhaps till late in the night and whoever wins has to host wet party followed by dinner” Mrs. Bharathi tempted rather challenged them and left the club.

While her car was on the move, Mrs. Bharathi instructed the car driver Siddu to play a film in the screen. She started looking at the screen curiously as it was a blue film, which she got secretly through Siddu.

“Siddu give me a cigarette and lighter”

“Madam how could you control yourself without smoking for more than three hours?” The driver while giving her the cigarette packet and the lighter dared to ask her.

“Shut up you idiot and don’t take my hobbies as lenience and advantage. You are only paid double the salary to do whatever I say and to shut your mouth. And if you leak anything of mine that day will be the last day for you, not only from the job, but also from this world. I don’t say how but I just engaged somebody only to finish you” She warned rather threatened him seriously.

“Sorry madam, I swear and will never disclose anything to anybody; and all your secrets will remain buried in me only”

“That is fine” While smoking cigarette she took a long puff and cajoled him.

She cautioned him to drive the car as slowly as possible and when it was nearing her bungalow she instructed him to change the direction of the car.

“Siddu keep the car far away from liquor shop and bring me my brand” She gave him money.

The driver parked the vehicle in the parking lot of the shopping malls and he stealthily brought her a red wine bottle and kept it in the rear seat by her side.

She was sipping red wine, smoking now and then and thus enjoying the pre- lunch session in her journey in the car while witnessing the film.

“Siddu take rounds in the outskirts of the city till I finish my drink, later we will have lunch” She befriend him as he was driving the vehicle under mounting tension due to her threatening.

“Thank you madam” He said in relax. He drove the vehicle towards the outskirts of the city.

“Congratulations Miss. Jasmine and I have just received your medical reports, you are the best and I am appointing you as my Personal Secretary” The Chairman and the MD of the GM Group of Companies said little emotionally and shook her hand.

He then signed on the same agreement, on which Dr. Jasmine had already signed. He handed over the agreement to her and asked her to take a copy of it and secret the original in the locker.

Initially he felt happy over her selection and looked at her from top to bottom; she could be definitely a substitute to his better half in beauty, but not in age. And in age she was looking quite younger than his daughter. He couldn’t decide to which compartment she would suit in? His mind was lingering and there were certainly some inherent human emotions and feelings, which he concealed within himself, but certainly not out of her sight.

“When are you reporting for duty Miss. Jasmine?”

“I join today itself sir”

“Oh! You have come prepared that means you are hundred percent confident in yourself”

“Yes sir, I am a doctor and I am always ready to attend my profession, and now I consider this is also part of my profession sir”

“Don’t you have sentiments like auspicious day, time, etc?”

“For professionals if the situation demands, they can’t look for day or time, but we have to save our patients and so also the Business Empire in which they are employed” She spoke that she was above sentiments.

“That is fine, and I heart fully welcome you to the family of the GM. Group of Companies and by the way please arrange Video conference; and I will introduce you to others staff members of our group of companies” The Chairman and MD concluded.

Later he called the office attendant and asked him to show her room.

She followed him and she sat in her room.

She kept herself busy in arranging the video conference as instructed by her Chairman and MD.

It was a posh locality, and most of the villas and houses were situated in rows. Most of the senior officers of both state and central governments were staying in the colony. Hence it was called as officer’s colony.

There was one villa which was exclusively used for ladies beauty parlour. There was a modern Gym and swimming pool earmarked for ladies. It was taken for lease by the organisers of the beauty parlour where, aerobics, yoga, meditation, facials, both softening of hair and curling of hair, face lifting, body massage, Thai spa, weight reduction, and steam bath were available. The entire services and administration of the parlour was attended exclusively by ladies, except Thai Spa, swimming practice and physical training in gym were attended by males.

“You bloody headless fellows go slowly” The care taker of the Thai Spa cautioned them when they were massaging the back of the two customers.

But they knew the response of their regular customers, Mrs. Ritu and Mrs. Priya.

“Hey man apply still more pressure otherwise we are missing the thrill” They both said in unison.

That is what the care taker of the beauty parlour expected from her customers.

The two boys
