THE SINGHANIA SCANDAL

THE INTERVIEW

Jiya looked apprehensively at the huge glass building the head office of Singhania Corporation. It was a huge five storeyed building with a beautiful glass façade.

She looked at her appointment letter which stated she was to be interviewed on the third floor.

Jiya Mehra was a simple small town girl barely out of her teens. She was tall,slim and had a wheatish complexion. She was good looking but not as beautiful as her elder sister. She had taken a two year secretarial course in Jaisalmer her hometown after which she had followed her sister Myra's footsteps and come to Gurgaon to search for some suitable job.

She was not very ambitious like her sister Myra who was in advertising and was now a manager in her company. Jiya planned to work for a year or two at the most and then get married to a suitable boy and be a good wife to him.

Nandita Ritwik singhania's secretary was taking the interview. She was fed up of her boss's younger step brother who seemed to need a secretary every month. If the secretary was beautiful and shrewd she would end up in his bed or if she was naïve he would scare her to death.

When Jiya entered Nandita looked at her and smiled. Now she had got the ideal candidate. This girl was quite young , wearing a light blue salwar kameez with dupatta. She was beautiful but demure and she seemed to be quite the innocent so she might just fit the bill. She was exactly the opposite of what Sagar would want in his secretary.

Sagar Singhania was bored stiff in his office. He could never understand why his brother Ritwik insisted he should work hard when they had money to burn. Sagar was Ritwik's younger step brother and heir to Singhania Corporation a multimillionare Corporation.

His ideaology of life was very simple. When someone had loads of money why should he work? A man must enjoy life and women.

He just came to his office to please his elder brother.

Today they were again interviewing candidates for his secretary. If she would be beautiful he would woo her and take her to bed , if not he would simply fire her on some excuse.

Nandita entered his room with the next candidate.

"Sir she has been appointed as your next secretary. Her name is Miss Jiya Mehra. She has done a secretarial course from Jaisalmer but she is a fresher."

She was a beautiful girl wearing a plain chiffon salwar kameez. She seemed to be quite young and soft spoken. She was just the type of girl he did not like. She was just not his type. He liked modern girls who would do anything to please their boss.

"I have not made the decision yet. Who has appointed her ?"

" Ritwik sir has appointed her and also asked me to inform you that this is the last interview we will be taking. She has been hired for a full year."
