Juliette (first name has been changed) still remembers this evening perfectly.
Upstairs at the Chai 33 establishment, on the Cour Saint-Émilion in the Bercy-Village shopping center (Paris, 12th century), at this square coffee table where we are seated to talk about its history, it's there that Lesty kissed her.
It was an evening in May 2023. Initially, Juliette had planned to call it quits after discussions on Tinder and a first
date
.
“I told him that I wasn’t going to be able to keep up with his lifestyle, financially speaking,” she recalls.

Lesty presented himself as a sort of golden boy who lived in New York and whose best friend was a Swede named Clark.
He is a director in a telecom company and he is planning to have a big party for his 40th birthday in Zanzibar.
Juliette continues: “I told myself it was going to be complicated, I’m not someone who needs to be kept.
But he reassured me, he knew how to find the words, told me:
I'm not a gambler,
and kissed me.
It was here, at this table, that he shoed me.
