Cameron was having the time of his life. Three beautiful goddess-like women surround him - a blonde, a brunette, and a redhead. Everyone is competing to get his attention on the dance floor. He couldn't bear to make these pretty women's hearts. Only one of them could be with him tonight.
"So who's the fairest of them all?" asked Reyli, the Latin singer who was a friend of his cousin Shei. Cameron was invited to Reyli's yacht party full of famous people from the entertainment industry. But there were also businessmen like him who were there to relax and enjoy the company of beautiful women. That's the perfect thing to do with Reyli's mega-yacht sailing the Caribbean Sea.
"I haven't decided yet. They are all goddesses."
All types of women were attracted to him. Of course, he was Cameron Duarte of Duarte International Bank. At the age of thirty-two, he was able to grow the bank built by his grandfather. Despite the economic crisis in many countries, he was not sold by other banks. He was able to invest in the right businesses and countries, which is why he grew even more successful. He was almost at the top of the world.
Reyli tapped Cameron's shoulder. "By the way, Shei called from Oslo. She wants you to call her hotel room." Reyli pointed to a door. "There's a phone in that stateroom."
Cameron headed to the elegant cabin. There was no signal in that part of the ocean so they could only use satellite phones. Her cousin was in Oslo, Norway for a conference so she couldn't go to the party.
"Hey, cuz! I heard the girls just couldn't get enough of you over there," his cousin greeted him
"What else is new? That's always been how women reacted to me. Don't tell me you will report me to my mom?" His mother wants him to find a sensible woman to marry. But he was still enjoying his life. So many girls, so little time. Marriage was still far from his mind.
"No. Remember I want to ask you a little favor?
Cameron's forehead furrowed. "Am I not already here at the party? As your representative?" That was probably the best favor his cousin had ever asked him.
"No. I want you to check on Mitos."
"Mitos?
"Yes. Reyli's staff. The cute one."
His cousin just couldn't stop talking about Mitos whenever she came from his friend's yacht. His ears felt like bleeding with his cousin's constant blabbering. Shei said Mitos was handsome, sympathetic, and kind. Even foreigners are attracted to that man because of his exotic beauty thanks to his Filipino blood.
Their handsomeness was almost just at the same level, he would admit. But Cameron didn't Mitos befriending his cousin Shei. Mitos had this arrogant vibe and that looked as if he never took any woman seriously in his life. And Mitos might seduce his cousin. He would immediately object because it will only hurt Shei. Cameron was a man too, he knew how men like him when it comes to women. He was a master player himself after all.
"What do you want me to do with him?"
"Just see if there's a woman hanging around him."
"And...?" Cameron knew his cousin would ask for another favor. She was not just gonna ask to look for that Mitos guy.
"Attract any woman who approaches him."
"What?" He almost dropped the phone. "Are you crazy? Why would I do that?"
Not that he could not snatch a woman from another man. He could do that effortlessly. But why would he do that for Shei?
"I just want to protect Mitos. I don't like women hanging around with him."
His forehead furrowed. "Shei, are you in love with him?"
"No! We are just friends!" she answered immediately. "I'm just really concerned about him."
"He was already old enough to know what to do."
"Cameron, please! Just do me a favor. Do you remember that time you stood up to the woman your mom set you up with on a date? I made a way for Auntie not to scold you," Shei reminded him. "I even lied for you."
"Alright! I'll see what I can do." But he has no plans on interfering in the life of that Mitos guy.
He was about to leave the stateroom when he accidentally kicked something scattered on the floor. Looked like a man's wallet. He picked up the wallet and opened it. He saw a picture of a beautiful girl in it. He thought she was probably less than eighteen years old. Her hair was long and curly. She has a beautiful smile and a pointed nose. She looked like a doll with her large, round eyes adorned with long eyelashes.
He just gasped as he stared at the picture. She looked so innocent, very different from the women he met. This was the type of woman that any man would want to protect. Who was this?
The stateroom door opened and Mitos entered. "Excuse me, Sir Cameron. That's my wallet."
"Yours?" he asked and looked at the picture of the woman.
"Yes, Sir. I left it when Miss Shei called earlier."
Cameron pulled out one of the IDs from the wallet and it was indeed Mitos' wallet. He handed it back to him. "Here."
Mitos' smile reached his ears when he retrieved his wallet and even stroked the picture that was there. "Thank you, Sir."
Cameron nodded. Then he remembered Shei's order. That he would watch if there was a woman hanging around this guy. That woman in his wallet looked very special to him.
Who was the girl in the picture? What is their relationship with each other?
Cameron was hesitant to ask Mitos and as the latter walked out of the room, they heard a loud explosion. The yacht shook.
"What was that?" Cameron asked.
"It's coming from the pantry," Mitos answered and ran immediately in the direction of the kitchen. But a great fire met them. And it quickly spread out on the yacht.
