The next day...
S-h-a-u-n P-e-r-e-z
My fingers clacked on the keyboard and finally hit enter.
Google flooded me with tons of results, including interviews, programs and functions he had attended in the past months.
To think that I could've discovered everything about him with a single search had me scowling at the laptop. Why the heck didn't I think of this sooner?
My finger drove the mouse pointer to the scroll bar, scanning through the sea of content. I double-clicked on his Wikipedia profile and the page opened up instantly, giving me all the info I wanted.
Shaun Eduardo Perez (born April 4, 1996) is a Mexican businessman and philanthropist. He is the second son of Mexican billionaire and business tycoon, Romulo Perez, and currently stands as the owner of 'El Cielo de los nino's.
On the side was a picture of him smartly dressed in a black turtleneck, topped with a snakeskin patterned suit. His gray eyes glimmered with a smile that could possibly melt any woman's heart, except mine of course.
Under it was the caption: Perez at the 2018 Met Gala.
Holy crap! He was at the Met Gala? I stared at the caption in disbelief.
Of course, he'd be there. He's a Mexican icon, my subconscious remarked.
I continued reading.
Place of birth – Monterrey, Mexico
Parents – Romulo Perez, Grace Ancira-Perez (deceased), Carmen Perez (step-mother)
Siblings – Declan Perez (half-brother)
I wanted to find out more about his deceased parent. But since the name wasn't hyperlinked, I decided to continue reading. Maybe there would be a hint or something brief about her.
The door leading to the garage squeaked open, and into the kitchen stepped my sister, carrying two bags filled to the brim with groceries. "Hi, hi, hi."
"Hey," I replied. "Need any help with that?"
"Naah. I got it." Pam put the bags on the island, a few paces away from where I sat and proceeded to empty them. "What are you doing?"
"Research."
"Really? On what?"
"Shaun Eduardo Perez." I turned the laptop so she could see the information I had dug up on him.
Pam let out a soft chuckle. "Is it true that you didn't know who he really was until last night?"
"I've been in Mexico for a month and a half, Pam. How was I supposed to know that the business men here like to wear dark casual clothing and pee behind trees?"
"Wait, did that actually happen?" Pam's eyebrows flew up in surprise.
When I simply shrugged, her expression changed to one of sheer amusement.
"Oh my God, that must've been so embarrassing," Pam laughed even harder.
As I turned the laptop back to me, I couldn't help but smile at the memory as it replayed in my head.
