The mother of famous J-Pop singer Crystal Kay, Cynthia, has recently made headlines. Now 60, she divorced her American military husband when she was 33. After finally settling her relationship with her affair partner Satoshi, which lasted for 10 years, she met another man.
Meeting a Scammer After Parting Ways with the Affair Partner
“I met Ken, my childhood friend, right after breaking up with Satoshi. Ken has such well-defined features that he could become an actor, and I used to have a slight crush on him. So, our relationship naturally developed.
It was another affair.
Ken told me, “I’m not living with my wife. We’re getting divorced soon.”
I was foolish and believed those words. I made the same mistake as I did with Satoshi. But Satoshi, despite his womanizing, wasn’t a bad person. Ken, on the other hand, was a con-artist. A born scammer.“
Ken claimed to be a “company owner.” He always showed up for dates in a sharp suit.
“In hindsight, he was very suspicious, but I couldn’t see through them at the time.
It happened during a date at Osanbashi in Yokohama.
‘Hey, what are we going to do after this?’ I asked playfully. “Shut up” he said and suddenly grabbed my collar. “My favorite dress ripped apart.”
She was subjected to violence and swindled out of all her assets. “When I burst into tears, he just walked away without a care. I eventually made it back home, and I realized that my necklace was missing. It was a diamond necklace I had bought to celebrate turning 40.”
“Was grabbing my collar his intention from the start? But at that time, I wanted to believe in him, so I deliberately avoided thinking about it.”
“I still loved Ken. One day, he asked me, ‘I need money for my business. Can you lend me some?’ I prepared all the money I had and handed it over. I said, ‘This is everything I can lend you right now,’ and he took it, saying, ‘Thank you.’ At that time, I believed he would pay it back.”
However, there was no sign of the money being returned. It was Cynthia’s entire fortune, an amount that could easily buy a luxury car. In the midst of this, an incident occurred.
Violently Assaulted in a Hotel
“It happened during one of our usual dates. In the hotel room, he suddenly transformed and started punching me with his fists. There was no particular reason. He brutally beat me, and in the end, he kicked me hard in the lower back. When I went to the hospital, they diagnosed me with three weeks of recovery time. My face was severely swollen, and even now, it’s still a bit distorted.”
“If you ever experience violence, I want to tell everyone to immediately go to the police. I decided to take him to court to demand a refund. Then he called me and said, ‘Stop this pointless action.’ He had a strangely gentle tone. ‘Doing something like that won’t change anything,’ he said.”
“I only understood the meaning of this after winning the court case. In Japanese law, if someone says, ‘I want to return the money, but I don’t have it right now,’ that’s the end of it.”
“Once the court issues an order, assets can be seized, but there was nothing in his name. He knew all of this. I never got my money back.”
“Actually, I wasn’t the only one he borrowed money from. He would say, ‘Wouldn’t you like to invest in my business too?’ and deceived friends and acquaintances.”
Later, I heard stories from various people saying, ‘I was also deceived. My money never came back.'”
