Chapter - 101Club Rosaro, One of the most popular places for the rich, elite and high profiles of the society to hang out. Alex has never been here, but from what Margaret had told him along the way, this is the place where if you dig deep enough, you can find the ugly side of many of those elegant and sophisticated champions of society. During the day, they are busy putting on a show in front of the people, but at night, they shed their masks away and dive into depravity. On the surface, it was just a high-end place for fun, but that's just on the surface.But when Alex tried to find out more about what she meant by the ugly side, Margaret refused to dwell deep into it. She didn't want Alex to know how dark the industry she was part of was.Soon, Alex stopped his motorcycle in front of the club as Margaret instructed and followed behind her as they walked inside. Though it was early in the morning, the club was not empty, and several drunkards lay motionless, sleeping on the table

Chapter -103"How dare you speak to him in that tone? Do that again, and I will show you hell right here and now" Margaret, on the other hand, hearing the man, lost her composure. She dared him to try her."Yes, Boss," the man yelled out at the top of his lungs, loud enough for everyone to hear outside the room."Oh, so you wanna try it?" Margaret asked, challenging the man."No, Boss... I was in the wrong. It won't happen again," Standing straight in attention, the man corrected himself. 'Who is the kid to rile her up so much?' the man thought as he sneaked a peek at the handsome but wimpy looking kid in front of him."Now answer his question," Margaret sat back in her chair and said."He is not a regular, but he does hang around here every with his friends, but I don't know him personally. But..." The man looked at Margaret, "But when he came here a few days back, someone asked me to fiddle with his drink." The manager told them.Margaret looked at the manager seriously. If this wer

Chapter -105In the restaurant,Alex brought Margaret to the restaurant in front of his company. The food here was delicious, and above that, he knew about the place. Going to a place you know about can save you from embarrassment. Trying out a new place with your date was a bad, bad idea. If the food turns out bad, your date might end up taking you as a cheap niggard even if you didn't mean it.So, Alex brought Margaret to what he felt was a safe place. Alex ordered the food while Margaret just went along with his choice."So, how long are you going to work here?" Margaret asked as the two of them settled in comfortably."At Theation?" Alex looked at Margaret, "I don't know, but I don't think it will be long," Alex said."But didn't you love working there?" Margaret was a bit surprised to hear Alex, "Why the sudden change of heart?" Last time, he was very much in love with that place."I do like it there," Alex nodded his head, agreeing with Margaret, "But things change. Now I think

Chapter - 107Karen, who could only hear the end of her sentence, was confused, "Rival?""Auhh... Let's leave that discussion for some other time," Margaret conveniently brushed off the topic, "What I am more intrigued about is the thing that got you startled. C'mon, tell me what is troubling you?" Margaret asked as a smirk appeared on her face."Just some company stress. Nothing I haven't dealt with before," Shaking her head in denial, Karen replied. She wasn't just going to let it all out in front of Margaret from the get-go. They hardly knew each other by name, and more so, Karen felt a bit intimidated by Margaret. She felt Margaret was trying to pry into her."Yeah, Alex told me about it," Margaret said as she took a step closer to Karen, "But why do I feel that you are not being honest with me?" Margaret asked as she bent forward a bit, looking straight into Karen's eyes, "It's something to do with a man, isn't it?""I am married," Karen hurriedly tried to deny Margaret's claim a

Chapter - 109"I am home," it was around dinner time that Alex walked into the house. He was so tired that, tossing his bag to the sides, he dropped dead on the couch in exhaustion."You look dog-tired. What have you been up to all day?" Martha asked as she walked out of the kitchen with a glass of water, hearing Alex."It was really a tiring day," taking the glass from her, Alex said, "I had to run around places to find out what really happened with Abir and Suzie. If not for Margaret, I would still be running around without much success," Alex said and gulped down the whole glass in one go."You were with Margaret till now?" Martha asked when she heard Alex. Her motherly instincts began to kick in."No... not all day, but till lunch, yeah," Alex nodded, "Huh... If not for her, I wouldn't know what to do," Alex sighed."Like a date?" Martha asked, raising her brows in question."No, mom... No... Hell no. It was not a date. I met her outside, and the club I was going to, Margaret actu
