Tea & Tales ☕ The Untraceable Client Who Changed Everything [PT. 2]

Welcome to an episode of Golden Nuggets TN Tails season 1 powered by Husby, served by Khadija. I remember I could not like believe that, but I remember he left me a briefcase in my office. But when he left the briefcase, you know, it's like 90s style Samsung leather Samsung it briefcase and and this this briefcase, I took it and I put it to one in my drawer. I closed it and never opened the the drawer because that's the only place who lock in my office.

So when this happened and because I didn't really did the action myself, I said you can leave it there. And we just like did it together. But he so in my, my mind, I didn't. But I remember at that time. So I went back to the office, I ran back, I asked someone to make a video and said because I don't want him to sing that I'm stealing something. I was like, we don't know what I'm going to find. Maybe a harm like cash, maybe he like we don't know.

We like really seriously because this is getting weird. Yeah, this guy is getting weird there and the by the day, by the month, by the week. Anyway, go to go and so it was 6-7 PMI called the office and the guys are you there? I say yes. I ran back to the office. Go to the office. I asked them to take a video and I'm like we are here today. On the 13th. Yes, though you all witness if I fall, you all fall, you know, like we are here because we're. Back down together.

Yeah, I tell them that all the time and I tell them like and I say in the video and that we're going to open because we're very, very concerned. Like by the way, it's a crime to transfer money to people and then disappear and not saying if it's a gift or no. So, so anyway, we are. So we break the brick, the briefcase, we open it and of course it was OK. When there was notebook, there was obviously a few few cash on euro etcetera, but nothing.

Substantial. Substantial and and then I went through to the to the older notebook and I felt it a bit, you know, like. Invading his privacy. Yes. And time to time I look at the camera, I said I hate you forced me to do that anyway. So I find the crew sent an e-mail, I found a lawyer sent an e-mail to the lawyer. The lawyer contacted the client and he's he said he's fine, he will call you once I knew he was fine and you know like healthy and etcetera. Alive. Anywhere.

Six months later I went in everyday. I was on the yacht in Ibiza and I received a phone call. Hello, it's me, I'm in Dubai, I need my briefcase. I forgot to tell him about the briefcase. I didn't broke. Into it and it's broken like open. Broken, got it. Like, you're gonna, you're gonna. We don't know each other. We saw each other twice, you know? And he's like, and he's like, yeah, I really need my briefcase. I'm like, well, I'm in Ibiza right now.

I'm on a boat. There is no bye, bye, bye. Oh my God, we're going to do so. I called my colleague and I'm like, listen, BITCI might go down. She will go with me because you on that with me. I'm like, can you please go run to Carrefour or to wherever French sing and find a brave cat and something. I send her the picture and I'm like, do they still make those? Right now I'm like, I don't know, go to. Karama. Karama, they stuck in the 90s.

I'm like so and she's like OK, and then he's calling me by calling me back and I'm like, and I'm like, should I tell him? But you know, I, I would prefer to tell him in front of him that I. I. I I send him this video. Anyway, I did it in a good attend. I like, I wanted to know like where he, where he's etcetera. So he calls me back and I'm like, should I tell him? I prefer to tell him face to face, but I said, you know what I'm not going to tell you.

I'm going to let my colleague deal with that. I'm in holiday why I'm stressing I'm like, this is expensive and I'm like, you know, I cannot do it again. So I so she goes find the find the same exact difference. And I told I told her I sent her the video for her to put back the everything. In the same place. Like if something is missing, you are you go down, you know. So anyway, they meet in a Saturday in my office while I wasn't there and the the so she's super nervous.

Obviously he's very impressive. Also because he's tall and he's not very, he does someone who's come. Charismatic. Yeah, and he don't smile. Etcetera. Anyway, she tells him, well, we had the problem because you disappear, so we wanted to have to get in touch with you. So we had to break into the into the briefcase. And he's like you, you did what? You break into my briefcase and then you take a break and he and then he's like, you did what you get to you.

You did what you get to do. Anyway, I don't even remember the code. Good, good. You did it. And I'm like, and I was like, you know, like, I was like nervous. I was waiting for a call to tell me like what? And so she called me and told me, well, it's OK. And he and he called me after and he told me naughty, naughty. I'm like, what do you mean, naughty? Yeah, you, you broke. I was worried about you. Yeah, I was worried about the 6,000,000 Sorry, I did you so

anyway. And the this person then this is from that moment that an extraordinary, extraordinary partnership started with this this client who is now a a partner because we Co invest together except the Army. It started the in the most in the most strangest way. We've and I and I told him I said like you met me first for two second. You dismissed me. You asked me to come to your hotel.

I said no and you forced me and I'm like and then you suddenly transfer money to it's like yeah, you know, I always do my business. I once I sat with you, I just need to look at your eyes, you know like old school and I know what you have and if you are a dishonest or no, I felt you were not someone is not going. I am careful, let's come down. And he's like, no, no, I I knew it.

I knew it and I saw and he said, you know what it's a bet that you take if I've done it and I lost the money because you keep it, you know, disappear with it. It's my fault. I should never have trusted her theft shit, you know? So anyway, and with that money we invested, we bought 2 apartments, 2 duplex in Bulgaria off plan and we spent in total over for the the time that they did the construction over maybe three years, 3 1/2, three years we spend I think 14 or

16,000,000. And from this amount we turn it in 120,000. We sold it last winter. And 120 million. 122 million he made, you know so. You tripled his money. Yes, I have his money so he can forgive the little entries and privacy invasion and we have so many years and he's got. A brand new Samsonite now. Yes, I did it twice. By the way, whenever he disappear you. Just break it. Yes, yes. And I keep that. I keep telling him and by the way, I still don't have his phone number. No.

But that's not not but you. Have the lawyer's e-mail address. That's that's all you need, yeah. We skip that path now. No, I know now that if it is happy here, he will come back one year, 2 year. But you know, do not panic until he's until he's in the article, you know, passed. Away, yes. Bless him, bless him. No, I will be very sad because we have a. Lot of friends now. Yeah, we're very good. As with partner, we invested in things together.

But this, this is like, if you ask me, what's the morality in this story #1 never just someone by by the by the book. Judge a book by its cover. Never just right, never someone by the book judge someone by the cover. No, never judge a book by its cover. And for more English lessons. No, I can say it in French. I. Know. It in French the dress doesn't make the one what is 1.

French. I don't know. 1. I thought, OK, you understand mostly French people will will watch this because it's me of course. So that's number one, you know, because if I will have seen him, I will never have sorts, you know, like that's the type of person who will follow me on certain investment and etcetera. Number two, trust is extremely important. So he trusted me and I took this as a token and I didn't, you know, like abuse, abuses, trust. And it lasted for a long, very

long time. Because really, I don't know, like I, I know a lot of people, like, you know, not everybody is twisted and gonna spend the, the, the, the money. But once he did that, he trusted me. But it was a responsibility for me because the money. Was a test. You know something very funny. You know what he does sometime. So we have meetings with banker etcetera. So he's not married. He doesn't have kids, right? I'm married and I have kids and

I'm happily my my husband. My husband is handsome. I want to just put that I. Can I can? So I am extremely happy. So you know what you do in front of the banker, the banker they will say OK, so if we do this loan we will need because you don't have a will. And so we need to do to put the will in place, and we also need the person that will be. In the will. Yeah, in the will and he said do you have a wife, kids?

He said no, I have no one. Maybe I put her and this when he said that it that it's not too really do it for me because he would never do that. Something like that is much more rational than that. I'm not this, but you know what he why he doing it to test them to test me to see what what's then if I hear that, maybe I'm going to go and tell him. So what about the wheel? So the fact that you stay cool. But no, it's the cool. I don't want any of this.

It's Haram. So, you know, you know, you have these personalities are very cheeky and they test you in a lot of different way and you don't really realize it and you discover it only after that. He tested you in so many way. I will not test someone with six million of my money because this is like a very bad test, right? So, but with that small things it tests, it tested me many times. Just things so know when you something's too good to be true, you may be being tested. Yes, I know.

So don't judge the book by this cover. The trust, the, the, the, the trust was given to you where it has a token and make sure that really you know something and nobody will come around because after I was saying for the money, they if it was in my account, OK, but it was in company account. And what, what if someone else take this money? I don't have the hand on the company account, you know, so that was a lot of stress for me.

So this also there, there is something else very with very important is like, and what I like. I, I learned such and like all this adventure with this client taught me so many, so many lessons, so many way to work. Like when you have someone who is not rational in front of you, he's not crazy. He's like far, far, far from being crazy, but not in the normal way or classical way of

thinking or, or doing things. You also, you think that, yes, you have to adjust, you know, to this type of person. Like, Can you imagine? I've been working with this person and now from 6-7 years and I don't even have his number or his e-mail it's. Crazy. So I trust the universe I manifested. Brilliant. Yeah. OK, well, that's a lovely tale. Thank you very much for that. Lots of lessons in there. I hope you enjoyed that one. Comment down below your favorite part of that story.
