Chapter 41 Regan & François
Regan & Francois
My love, I am headed to the airport. I can’t believe I will finally see you! This was all so sudden. I wish I could bring the girls.
That will come with time, my love. We need to meet, just you and me. Are you certain you don’t need me to pay for the room? I am very frustrated with my accountant.
I have paid. I told the girls I would be gone until Sunday. We will have four days together if all goes well with my flights! The hotel looks beautiful.
It is a special place with wonderful beaches. My colleague has a villa nearby.
I left the note you suggested, but I’m a little worried. I think they would have understood if I had told them I was meeting you.
Do you want to cancel? If you don’t love me, just tell me now.
No, I don’t want to cancel!
Hello?
Francois?
I’m sorry. You are right, the girls will be fine. I didn’t tell them anything, I promise. Please come and meet me.
Francois?
I will text as soon as I land. I love you.
I love you, Francois.
I cannot wait to hold you in my arms…and more.
Same here!!!!!
My love, there is a problem.
Francois, no.
They are telling me I need to pay some customs fee for my business equipment. These officials are extortionists!
Regan?
Regan?
How much do you need?
Five thousand US. They say I can clear customs as soon as I pay the fee, my love. I am calling my accountant, but he says it will take three days to transfer my money from my Tether wallet. Tell me what to do.
I don’t have anything left until my Kraken Futures account is unfrozen.
I am frustrated beyond words! I am heartbroken!
OK, I will take cash from my BBB account.
This will also take three days. It is the weekend. I will return to Paris and we can try to be together at another time. I am so close, but it is impossible. I cannot take any more money from you, my love. As soon as my accounts are liquid, we will move forward with our life together!
How do you want the money?
My Tether wallet will work, but I cannot ask you for more, Regan! Where will you find it?
It’s done. I will see you soon.
My love, you are magical! I see the money in my account. I will go now to clear customs and see you shortly!
I love you, Francois. I will be waiting.
I have landed in Ercan, Francois! Are you at the hotel?
Francois? I don’t think my messages are going through. I will drive to the hotel and see you there!
I have checked into room 402. I will be waiting for you, my love.
Francois?
