Chapter 141

While she waited for him to get the car, someone called out her name and turned around and she was surprised to see the elderly couple from her neighborhood. She enquired how they were and it seemed that they were equally happy to see her and remarked why she never attends the association meetings.

He was bald and short, with wrinkles covering his face, well dressed in a black suit and seemed content. She looked fragile but her age couldn’t hide her beauty, she was dressed in an elegant skirt and a blouse with an emerald pendant hanging from her neck. She didn’t notice when Akshar walked behind her until he smiled at the couple.

They exchanged good byes and she turned to Akshar, insisting that he doesn’t have to drop her and she could take a cab, since it would be quiet a long drive for him. He shook his head indicating no accompanied with a smile, she heard someone tap her shoulder and turned around.
