Use the optional argument of the \section command:

\section[TOC Entry]{In text entry\cite{KK}}

You can redefine the internal way of the chapter output:

\makeatletter
\def\@makechapterhead#1{%
  \vspace*{50\p@}%
  {\parindent \z@ \raggedright \normalfont
    %\ifnum \c@secnumdepth >\m@ne
    %    \huge\bfseries \@chapapp\space \thechapter
    %    \par\nobreak
    %    \vskip 20\p@
    %\fi
    \interlinepenalty\@M
    \Huge \bfseries #1\par\nobreak
    \vskip 40\p@
  }}
  \makeatother

Your minimal example produces a ToC that looks like this (in code form):

\contentsline {section}{\numberline {1}\relax $\@@underline {\hbox {The Client}}\mathsurround \z@ $\relax }{2}{section.1}
\contentsline {subsection}{\numberline {1.1}Sub section 1}{2}{subsection.1.1}
\contentsline {section}{\numberline {2}\relax $\@@underline {\hbox {Scope}}\mathsurround \z@ $\relax }{2}{section.2}
\contentsline {subsection}{\numberline {2.1}Sub Section 2}{2}{subsection.2.1}

Note that each of the \contentsline entries for a \section contains \@@underline. A crude solution would be to redefine \@@underline to be a "no-op" (do nothing) when processing \tableofcontents:

{\makeatletter
\def\@@underline#1{#1}
\tableofcontents
\makeatother}

If only some of your sections require this "special treatment", then manual underlining is most likely the way to go, together with the correction above, or by using the optional argument for sections:

\section[The Client]{\underline{The Client}}

However, for more far-reaching or consistent requirement across your entire document, consider using a package dedicated to sectional titles. For example, sectsty provides an example in its documentation doing exactly this:

enter image description here

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{sectsty}% http://ctan.org/pkg/secsty
\usepackage[normalem]{ulem}% http://ctan.org/pkg/ulem
\usepackage{xcolor,hyperref}% http://ctan.org/pkg/{xcolor,hyperref}
\hypersetup{
    colorlinks=true, %set true if you want colored links
    linktoc=all,     %set to all if you want both sections and subsections linked
    linkcolor=black,  %color for links
}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\newpage

\sectionfont{\underline}

\section{The Client}
\subsection{Sub section 1}

\section{Scope}
\subsection{Sub Section 2}

\end{document}

Note the difference in the underlining between the choice of sectsty and that of a manual underline.
