luxurious five-star Derrien Island Grande Spa Resort and the owner’s name is Darius Brogan. He’s been a good friend of mine for a while now so don’t worry I am in the process of sending out all of the details to his hotel to help you all get settled in quickly. This is a loss for us here at the Meridian, but we want to make sure that you still have a wonderful event!” replied Solange sincerely to her friend. She and Nathan were old college friends and they had kept in touch occasionally throughout the years!
    “ Yes, I am sorry too about not being able to use your property but did you say, Derrien Grande Spa Resort and Darius Brogan? Do you mean the billionaire hotel magnate who has been buying up properties all over the Caribbean?” exclaimed Nathan loudly. “I heard that property was one of the most luxurious in the southern Caribbean.”
    “You heard right!” laughed Solange in response.
    At the sound of Darius’ name and the Derrien Grande Spa Resort, the sense of dread Candasee felt on the plane returned in full force and completely eliminated any appetite she thought she had left. Instead a wave of panic flooded her abdomen and her heart began to race erratically. Her soup filled spoon dropped from her hand back into the container as every muscle in it became listless. Surely she didn’t just hear Nathan say that the venue for the intensive shifted to that hotel?
    “The one and the same,” Solange continued with a smile. “So I know that you and all of your delegates will be well taken care of in five star quality. I scheduled a meeting with his events coordinator for you this evening, so you can go over with her your plans to set up the conference area and I will drop by the hotel tomorrow to check up on you.”
    “Solange, thank you so much, I really appreciate how you have gone out of your way to make sure this event still succeeds,”
    “Now, before you thank me, there is another condition to this d eal that you need to know about. The hotel is in need of an entertainment package on the fourth night of your intensive. So when I told him that you were a professional arts and media group he was very interested in learning more about you and in making this exchange. The group they booked cancelled last minute and now it is imperative that they get a professional arts company to provide entertainment. They would have preferred a local group but they aren’t very picky right now,” she said.
    “I see, so we will be working for our stay and our supper in other words!”
    “Something like that and it will help you absorb the differences in the cost for the delegate’s meals as you no longer have the all-inclusive arrangement we arranged. Darius has agreed that if you do the show, he will include the delegate’s meal costs in two of the restaurants, for the duration of the intensive. That is extremely generous of him and you would both be helping each other out!”
    “ Why is he so willing to do this? Has he ever heard of my academy?” asked Nathan with surprise.
    “I emailed him a few videos of the performances company did and told him about the many awards you have received and both he and his events coordinator were quite impressed,” Solange replied. “Now this is the big part that I haven’t told you about yet! You are getting a steal because the entertainment is going to be featured on the Where in the World Is Sally Flanders? travel show this upcoming week, so you will be getting free global exposure and recognition for the work you do at your academy,” squealed Solange with elation.
    “ No way!” exclaimed Nathan. Solange are you serious? This sounds too amazing for words! I don’t know how to thank you! When I see you remind me to give you a giant hug!” hooted Nathan excitedly.
    “Someone must really love you in heaven, Nathan!” said Solange smiling. “I am r eally happy for you; this couldn’t have been better arranged for your academy!”
    Nathan blinked rapidly as he
