He has filled the void with numerous relationships with beautiful women of similar lifestyle, living around the world he travels constantly. He has a chance encounter with Carrie Latham, a young, struggling, single mother on his regular jogging trail and becomes involved with her little daughter who has terminal cancer. He becomes so close to them that, after the childs death, he adopts Carrie and introduces her to his lavish world.
