Mina had only just settled into her seat when the country's President walked into the dining room with a smile on his face. Although dressed formally, he had removed his blazer and loosened his tie, so she did not feel underdressed, but she was scared. She turned to Zane mouthing her concern to the man, who seemed to not want to answer. She then watched the president greet everyone by name, until his eyes rested upon her form and he stood beside her.
"And who might this beautiful woman be?" The president grabbed Mina's hand, and it took all her willpower not to slap him with it. "Cameron Lee," he said, looking straight into her eyes. Mina could feel her face turn red, but it was not because she was flattered by the casual greeting.
"My name is Mina Harlow sir."
"Drop the sir. I'm just Cameron today." Mina nodded but she had no intention of dropping any sort of formality with the man.
