The next morning Kourtney made sure to wake up on time, as usual Stuart left early for the office, he came home late last when she was fast asleep, she took a bath, got dressed in a black jean and a white T-shirt with long black high leather boots, she grabs her bag and leaves the room, Cassy and William were waiting for her downstairs," Good morning Mrs Levant?." William greets," Morning William?." Kourtney greets back warmly," Goood morning?." Cassy smiles," morning hungry cat, hope you've already had breakfast? I do not want your tantrums while I am shooting." Kourtney says teasingly," you do not have to worry." Cassy giggles," lets go." Kourtney took the lead, William opens the door for them and drove off to the beach," Kourtney! Over here." Miss Jacks waves her hand, Kourtney walks towards her," Good morning?." She greets," Morning Kourtney? Are you ready everything is set for you, we are just waiting for one important guest." Miss jacks says," Important guest!." Kourtney repeats wondering who it could be," Mr Stuart Levant." Miss jacks says with a wide smile," Stuart!." Kourtney widens her eyes, she didn't think he would come to her shoot, they haven't seen each other face to face for two days now, nor have they talked or solved their differences," are you okay Kourtney?." Miss jacks asks when she sees her worried and anxious face," I'm alright, I will go get ready now." Kourtney gave a slight smile," your dressing room is right on the left brown tent." She points, Kourtney nods and went ahead, just as she entered her tent, Stuart and his Secretary arrived at the spot, Miss jacks, Nate and the others welcomed him," thank you for finding time through your busy schedule Sir." Nate smiles," I would like to see were I'm spending my money." Stuart said simply," this way Sir." they showed him his seat and offered him something to drink and made him comfortable, It was already 09:30am, Stuart was getting bored and he couldn't see Kourtney anywhere, he so badly wanted to see her, he takes out his phone to text her.
"Where are you?."
While Kourtney was changing her cloths her phone buzzes, she picks it up and saw a text from Stuart, she reads it but didn't care to reply and puts it away, Stuart kept on staring at the screen but he didn't get her reply, he was left no Choice but to track her phone, he stood up and followed her location, soon he stops in front of a brown tent, he was about to go inside when Kourtney stepped out, she stumbles back but Stuart caught her waist preventing her from falling back," you have to be more careful little angry bird." Stuart gave a little smirk, Kourtney frowns wanting to free herself from his hold but he wasn't letting her go," how dare you touch me? Let me go, now!." She argues," are you sure you want me to let you go?." He raises a brow, Kourtney looks at the position they are in," if he lets go of her right now, she will fall back hard and hurt herself. Kourtney shook her head," No no, put me up straight then let go." She commanded, while in the other tent, Naya was about to leave her tent when she saw Kourtney in a man's embrace, she couldn't see his face but his back, his figure and physic looked so familiar, Naya took out her phone and took pictures, she tried getting closer, when she hid from the other end she finally saw the man's face, her eyes widened seeing Stuart, she thought this was the perfect opportunity to bring Kourtney down, to embarrass her and take over her fame, when she took enough pictures she carefully left the seen without being seen, Stuart was adamant on not letting her go," Stuart I have a shoot please let me go." Kourtney said angrily," only if you promise to talk after this." He told her," Home, not here." Kourtney says, Stuart finally releases her and Kourtney left immediately, everyone was already waiting for her when she arrived," ok people, places." Miss jacks shouts, Kourtney started with the pictures in the water, her dum hair looked so sexy, her body, face, eyes and everything looked sexy and hot, she was like a hot goddess that descended somewhere in the universe, after the water pictures they took land pictures and finished up with an advertising video of her, the shoot was a success and everyone praised her for the wonderful work," that was amazing Kourtney you did great, my crew will edit everything and notify you when it's ready, Good day." Miss jacks smiles and walks away, Kourtney looked straight ahead to where Stuart was seated but couldn't see him, he was already gone, without telling her like always, after a long day she could finally go home and rest.
Meanwhile in Scotland away from the city, there is a hidden Facility that's restricted and has tight security, in one of the rooms there was a young woman seated by the window as she stared outside the garden, her brown eyes showed no light or emotions left in them, her skin was pale, her lips cracked and dry, her long brown hair was a mess, she was dressed in a white patient gown, at that moment she no longer cared about anything, she could only wait for death to take her so she could finally Rest In Peace, the door to her room swing open and a tall man walks in, he wore a fine black suit with a blue shirt inside, black leather shoes and an expensive wrist watch, he has short dark hair, chocolate brown eyes, smooth skin and slightly pink lips, he has a well built physic, simply charming, the sound of his shoes on the marble floor rang in the woman's ears but did not care to look back, the man sat on the opposite side to the woman with his one leg folded on the other," how are you sunshine?." The man gave a side ways smile, the woman said nothing, she kept on staring outside," how long will you keep up like this huh? You should accept the fact that this is your new home, you will never leave this place, ain't you tired of trying to escape this place for 10years now? You will never leave this place sunshine, accept your new home." He chuckles softly," Sir Damian a moment please." A Doctor came in holding a file in his hand, Damian removes some strains of hair off her face and whispers in her ear," I will visit you soon sunshine." He smiles before going with the Doctor, the woman could only drop a tear from her eyes.
..
Kourtney was sound asleep when she heard the banging on the door," Kourtney! Open up you need to see this." Cassy calls out to her," what now?." Kourtney says to herself in a sleepy tone getting out of bed and went to open the door," have you seen this?." Cassy said going inside and sat on the couch with her laptop," seen what?." Kourtney asked sitting next to her lazily," This" Cassy turns the laptop to her," it's all over the internet and social media platforms." She adds, Kourtney looks at the screen to see what Cassy was bubbling about when she saw a picture of her and Stuart at the shooting spot this morning hand in hand, she rubs her eyes with her knuckles to see if what she was looking at right now was an illusion or true, and to her surprise and disappointment was actually the reality, the photo was shared at the daily celebrity gist blog captioned " Is Kourtney Grenade & Stuart Levant having an affair?
There were thousands of comments and million likes and views, people were commenting all kinds of stuff like," what does she really want?

" why are you people always hating on her?she is a kind and sweet person get a life." Another one comments
" Kourtney is the sweetest woman, if there is really something going on between them then I wish them happiness." Another person adds
The comments kept on going, people shared the picture on their blogs, their wall and everywhere that it went viral, a little girl even went live to talk about the issue, she was one of Kourtney's fans and president of Kourtney only fans blog, she shamed the people who shamed Kourtney, she stood up for Kourtney and supported her, Kourtney's fans also joined in the conversation to support her, Kourtney closed the laptop not taking the insults from people, this was not supposed to happen, her only worry was," what if Stuart sees it? His reputation will be all ruined because of her, it's all her fault, she blames herself as she walks around in the room," everything will be fine Kourtney, people will always talk." Cassy said," you don't understand Cassy, this is not good." Kourtney says leaving the room and went downstairs," Kourtney wait." Cassy follows her behind.
Stuart just finished his meeting with the board of directors and headed back to his office, he was going through some documents when his secretary came rushing in, Stuart lifted his head up with a frown written all over his face," Mr Levant Sir, you need to see this." Anna forwards her iPad to him, Stuart's frown deepened after seeing what was being said all over the internet," it's all over the internet and the erotic part is that they are blaming Kourtney Grenade in all of this." She says," when did this get out?." Stuart asks calmly," just this morning Sir" she answers," if you don't mind me asking Sir, is the rumors true? Are you having an affair with Miss Grenade?." She asks, Stuart glared at her, his eyes were piercing and cold which sent shivers down her spine," Sorry, it's non of my business." She apologizes," Arrange a meeting with the press at 10am sharp." Stuart said calmly," yes Sir." She nods and leaves, Stuart picks up his phone and dales William's number, the call was answered immediately," Sir."
" how is Kourtney?" He asks
" not too good, she got a call minutes ago informing her that the project of the contract she got will be on hold till she solves the matter out or they will have no choice but to replace her." William explains," get her to the city hall in 30minutes." Stuart said before cutting the call," Sir I have informed the press they are on their way." Anna informs Stuart. At 10:30 William arrived at the city hall with Kourtney and Cassy, the reporters began taking pictures as soon as they saw Kourtney, they tried talking to her but was stopped by security, William led them inside safely, shortly after, Stuart and Anna arrived and went inside with security, the press was anxiously waiting outside, after a few minutes, Stuart and Kourtney came out with Anna, Cassy and William following behind them, Stuart sat on one of chairs with Kourtney sitting besides him, Anna stood in front of the press while Cassy and William sat behind," Ladies and gentlemen thank you for taking your time to meet us here" Anna began," not to long ago a scandal was linked to the media and nasty things were being said about Miss Grenade here, so Mr Levant took it upon himself to talk to you and the people watching worldwide, Mr Levant is a man of few words so if you have any questions you can pass them through me thank you, Mr Levant!." Anna steps aside, Stuart stood up and approached the mic," Greetings?." He greets which made many hearts in the crowd skip a beat due to the magnificent tone," the reason why I stand before you today is because an innocent woman's morals and values are being questioned, her career and reputation is on the line, or for what? A simple photo and people made a big deal out of it without finding out the reason behind it, she could have slipped and I saved her from falling, she could have fainted and I caught her, but you went so far to think I was actually having an affair with her, so tell me something? Ain't I allowed to support or save my wife?." Stuart's last words caught everyone off guard, they did not understand what he meant, seeing their confused faces and chattering among themselves he continues," Miss Kourtney Grenade and I are married, she is my wife, so saving my wife from following back and breaking her back was a problem? You went to insult her on media in every way you can, but I won't tolerate any insults at my wife, they will be consequences." Stuart says and went to hold Kourtney's hand," we are leaving." He tells her and takes her away, Kourtney didn't speak through out their journey back home, she didn't understand why Stuart did what he just did, they are not legally married, it's just a formality but he addressed it as a real thing between them, what about his reputation and work? All these thoughts were going through her head, soon they arrived back home, Kourtney got out of the car going inside up to her room, Stuart followed after her and found her seated on the edge of the bed, he stood in front of her with his hands in his pockets staring at her, silence filled the room that it became suffocating, after what felt like ages Stuart spoke," I should have spoken to you first before addressing the press, but it had to be done immediately." He told her which made Kourtney more angry, she wasn't angry because he addressed the press without telling her, she was upset because he wasn't planning on telling her where the hell he spent a night and the fact that he wasn't planning on apologizing to her, Kourtney stood up to walk away when Stuart held her arm stopping her," you're still angry?." He raises a brow, Kourtney couldn't take it anymore, she couldn't keep the anger and curiosity inside any longer, she nags her arm pulling away and gave him a hard glare," I am not angry because you addressed the press without my permission Stuart." She says in a calm yet angry voice, Stuart frowns wondering why she was upset and angry then," then why have you been annoyed with me?." He asks," are you freaking kidding up? Stuart you slept out two days ago, I waited for you in the cold dark night, I called you so many times but you didn't pick up or call me back, I tried reaching Tyler but he didn't pick up as well, not only that, you didn't show up the next morning till night, and you didn't think you owe me an explanation or apology? I know I am not legally your wife, you and I don't share an intimate relationship but I at least thought we were friends, you owe me that at least." Kourtney tears up, Stuart didn't a word, he couldn't tell her where he went and what he did, indeed he felt bad not telling her the truth, he was hurting her and he didn't like seeing tears in her eyes, he took a silent sigh taking a step back," you're right, you're not legally my wife, we share no intimate relationship, so I owe you no explanation Kourtney, my personal business doesn't concern you." Stuart said coldly, his facial expressions calm and still, Kourtney widens her eyes, tears filled in her eyes that she couldn't see clearly, she anxiously ran out of the room going downstairs, she grabs the car keys getting into the black car and drove off," Shit." Stuart cursed when he heard the engine, he knew she wasn't in her right mind to drive, Stuart rushed out of the house and got into the car going after her, Kourtney's mind was in a mess and couldn't think clearly, her eyes were wet and red that she couldn't see anything or where she was going, the next thing she heard was a car crashing into another car, her car was also hit but didn't cause damage, nor did she get hurt badly, only her forehead was bleeding, Kourtney lifts her head touching her forehead and hissed painfully, she opened the door to her car door to check on the other car, the big truck went hitting the tall thick tree but the driver was okay, Kourtney's eyes landed on the black car that looked so familiar, it was badly damaged, she anxiously took a few steps forward when her eyes widened seeing Stuart laying unconscious in the drivers seat, his head was bleeding staining his face and clothes, Kourtney felt weak in her knees, she felt like crumbling down, she couldn't feel her muscles move an inch," Stu..Stuart!." Her voice was shaky and breaking, she gathered all her strength to move and run towards the car trying to open the car door but was stuck," Stuart! Please wake up, somebody help me! Please help." Kourtney screamed out in panic, the driver in the other truck that got hit went to her aide," please help me get him to the hospital." She cried out, the man got the door opened and helped get Stuart out of the damaged car to Kourtney's car, he drove them to the City Hospital while Kourtney stayed with Stuart in the back seat, when they arrived the hospital, Stuart was taken inside to be treated, she wanted to go inside the operation room to be with Stuart but the nurses stopped her," I'm sorry Mrs Levant but you cannot come inside." She said," I want to be inside with him." Kourtney said with tears in her eyes," once the Doctor is done treating him we will send him to the ward do not worry." She told her, Kourtney had no choice but wait," Mrs Levant please let me attend to your wound or it will get affected." A nurse approached her, Kourtney went with the nurse, she got her wound dressed and went back to wait for Stuart outside the operation room," you should go get some rest in the other room, Stuart will be fine." Tyler said approaching Kourtney," I won't move an inch till I see Stuart, it's all my fault, he got into this accident because he tried to save me." She cried an controllably, Tyler could only rub her back comforting her, the room to the operation room opened and the nurses rolled Stuart's bed to the VIP Ward to rest and recover nicely, Kourtney and Tyler follows behind," here are the results for the patient Doctor." Linda came in with a file, Tyler took the file and went through it, his head was badly hit which caused a flow of blood but it wasn't bad as it looked, his leg was also injured ," is..is he going to be alright?." Kourtney asks," yes, it might take him days, weeks even a month to regain consciousness, you should go home, freshen up and get something to eat and rest." Tyler told her but like always Kourtney's reply still remains No!" I will stay here with him, till he wakes up." She said sitting besides his bedside, Tyler and the others left the room giving them privacy, Kourtney took out her phone and dialed Cassy, she explained everything to her and told her to inform William to let Stuart's Family know of him being in the hospital, after all they have the right to know what happened to their son, Kourtney hang up the call sleeping next Stuart in bed, at dawn, William and Cassy arrived at the hospital with some Food and clean clothes and slippers for Kourtney," thank you." Kourtney took the stuff putting them on the couch," how is he doing?." Cassy asks," Still the same, Tyler says it might take days or weeks for him to regain consciousness." Kourtney said sadly, Kourtney turns to William approaching him and stood in front of him," I am sorry, he is in this condition because of me."
" Mr Levant was only trying to protect you from harms way." William gave her a reassuring slight smile," did you inform his parents?."
" No, Mr Levant would not want his parents to know he was in this condition, you do not worry Mrs Levant, I will take care of everything." He told her," Kourtney nods," we should leave now, I will see you tomorrow okay, eat something and get some rest." Cassy gives her a hug and left with William, Kourtney went to take a bath, after her bath she changed into a pair of black sweatpants and a white top, she tied her hair into a ponytail, ate her dinner before joining Stuart in bed.
The next morning, Kourtney took up the job of nurse, she didn't allow anyone to change Stuart's clothes apart from her, she cleaned his body and everything else, she only allowed them to dress his wounds, she did this routine for the past five days now, a month had past by and Stuart was still showing no sign of waking up, Kourtney went to cuddle herself next to him in bed, her back facing him as she began to speak to him," you know what Stuart? It's been over three months now since we made that agreement, in this past three months we have shared a lot, we made beautiful and passionate memories together, we fought and argued, whenever I am with you I feel like I have known you all my life, like you have always been there half of my life," She pauses for a while before she continues," I don't know when this happened, but when you came in between me and that truck just so it wouldn't hit me, I realized that life is too short, we might not know what tomorrow holds and I don't want to lose you Stuart because I, I have, fallen for you and I don't want to lose you, please wake up, I'm begging you to wake up Stuart." Kourtney broke into tears, she stayed like that the entire day till she fell asleep, it was 1:30pm when she woke up, she did her daily routine, she took off his shirt to wash his body, she took a bowl of water and a white towel dipping it into the water, she drained the water putting the towel on his chest and began cleaning him when Stuart fluttered his eyes open, Kourtney didn't notice and continued washing his body," Doctor!." Stuart teases her with a slight smile, Kourtney looked at his face and sees that he was finally awake," Stuart! Her eyes tears up both sadden and happy," you're awake." Stuart tries to get but falls back due to the pain," lay down, I will get Tyler." She tells him about to leave when he caught her wrist, Kourtney looks back at him confusingly," we need to talk." He tells her," we have a lot of time for that, let the Doctors attend to you first, your health is more important right now." She told him, Stuart released her wrist, Kourtney rushes out to get Tyler, shortly Tyler and Linda came into the room, he did some tests on Stuart, his head had healed and the flow was no longer there, his bones and muscles were in perfect condition," how is he?." Kourtney asks," he is alright, everything in his body is in perfect condition, he just needs a lot of rest and away from work hopefully." Tyler raises a brow at Stuart," can I take him back home today?." She asked," Sure, just keep a close eye on him he is a workaholic."
" I will do just that." Kourtney smiles, Tyler nods and left with Linda," I will pack everything and tell William to pick us up." Kourtney says, she packed everything to go, William arrived and helped Stuart get into the car, soon they arrived back home, William helped Kourtney take Stuart upstairs to the room," I will get you something to eat ." Kourtney says about to leave when Stuart's words stops her in her tracks," can we talk now?."
" you need to eat something first." She tells him," I will only eat something when I speak to you." He was so adamant and persistent, Kourtney sighs sitting on the edge of the bed staring back at him, Stuart took in a silent breath before speaking," Ten years ago when I was eighteen, I lost someone, someone very important to me, she was the most kindest, sweetest, and had the softest nature, she was only sixteen when I lost her." Kourtney studied his facial expression, he didn't look sad but she could hear so many emotions in his voice, of guilt and blame," was she your...your girlfriend?." Kourtney asked expecting he would say no but someone who just meant a lot to him," Yes, we dated for a year, she always tried to put a smile on my face, she never hated anyone or find any faults, it was November 5th, the school had a prom night on a yurt, she was my date, she was so excited and wouldn't stop smiling, the ship started off, next thing we heard was a gun shot in the air, five men armed with big guns surrounded the kids and teachers, I hid her behind the huge door, there was a little girl just like Luciana's age, I couldn't see her face clearly but I remember her wearing a bubble pink dress with silver flat shoes, her face was staring down, she was frightened and trembling, I heard one of the men ordering her to come where the other kids were but she couldn't even move an inch, he was about to shoot her when I stepped in and I was shot on my left shoulder, Luciana panicked and came out of hiding, she was shot in the process and fell in the cold sea, soon the troop arrived, they took them away, I gathered all strength to jump into the water to look for her but did not find her, they took me out to the hospital while they stayed in search for her but found nothing, years went by and I never stopped searching for her, it was a month ago when I got a call from one of my men that they found someone who might know about her whereabouts, that's where I went that night, that's why I did not come home." He explained everything to her, Kourtney's eyes widened slightly, it all clicked now, she was in that same ship when that accident happened, she was the girl who those men wanted to shoot but..but Stuart stepped in, he saved her not just once but for the third time now, he has always been there with her, Kourtney's eyes drifted to Stuart's left shoulder, she removed his shirt and the scar of the bullet was still there, she touched it gently and asked," d..did it hurt?." She asked," Yes."
" Why did you save me?on the ship." She added, Stuart was confused for a while," what do you mean?." He asks her," that girl, in a pink dress with silver shoes, that girl is me, I was in that ship when you saved me, when you got shot I was so traumatized that I faded out the next moment, when I woke up I found myself in the hospital, I thanked my guardian angel who saved me that night, you are that guardian angel Stuart." She held his cheek, Stuart pulled her in for a hug, Kourtney pulls back staring right into his eyes," Did..did you find out where she is?."
" No, not yet." He says simply," do you still love her?." Kourtney asks while holding her breath waiting to hear what type of answer he would give, Stuart looks as though he was thinking about something, he wasn't sure what he felt about Luciana till now, all he wanted to do was find her and return her to her family," let's not talk about that now." He tells her caressing her cheek, Kourtney couldn't resist the temptation of wanting him but again he just came out of the hospital," Stuart! You need to rest." She whispers trying so hard to fight the heat that was building up inside her," I need you nothing more." He kisses her lips warmly, Kourtney couldn't resist anymore she kissed him back falling into his arms and they made love after a long time.
At the airport a private jet landed and a tall slim man walks out wearing a fine gray suit, he has short brown hair, dark green eyes and red lips, his looks drew every woman's attention, the young man breathed in the air around him and a smirk made it's way up to his gorgeous face," Kourtney Grenade Levant, I will see you shortly beautiful." He says to himself," Sir your ride is here." A man says, the man got into the back seat sitting back comfortably.
Kourtney finished taking her back and helped Stuart take his, she helped him go downstairs to have something to eat, after brunch they spent their entire day in each other's arms near the fire place till night time and went to bed.
The next day, Kourtney got a call from miss jacks about the Project," Kourtney hey it's jacks."
" miss jacks, good morning." Kourtney greets," I am very much okay, I called about the official opening and launch of the Hot girl summer cover." She says," the project is still on?." Kourtney asked confused," of course, I am sorry I misunderstood you and your intentions." She apologizes," you're not the first person to think so." Kourtney says," well the official opening is tonight and we were hoping Mr Levant will accompany you."
" Well my husband isn't feeling to well, but I will be there." Kourtney said," we will be expecting you." Miss jacks said before hanging up," who was that?." Stuart asked coming out of the bathroom," that was miss jacks, the official opening of my cover is launching tonight and she wants you to accompany me but I told her you can't make it." She told him," I don't mind accompanying you Mrs Levant." Stuart smiles," you haven't fully recovered, you need to rest."
" I think I have rested enough, besides, I do not want any other man eyeing you there." Stuart said," are you jealous?." Kourtney raises a brow," just trying to look after you." Stuart said simply, Right." Kourtney pushes him teasingly before going to the bathroom, Stuart was not in the room when she came out, she got dressed quickly and went downstairs, she saw a woman standing in front of Stuart, she was pretty and looked professional, dressed in a tight gray skirt that reached her knees, a tucked in white T-shirt with a gray jacket with black high heels, her blonde hair was tied into a hairpiece matching her brown eyes, Kourtney approached them and stood next to Stuart," Mrs Levant, pleasant to finally meet you in person." The woman forwards her hand to shake Kourtney's hand," and you are?." Kourtney asks," I'm Christine Pam Mr Levant's new Secretary." She introduces herself," New Secretary? What happened to Anna?." Kourtney looks at Stuart, Christine takes back her hand knowing perfectly well Kourtney didn't approve her," well Anna had a family emergency back home in Italy, she had to leave so she recruited Christine, I went through her files and she is educated and pretty good with her work." Stuart said calmly," Good huh?." Kourtney repeats," Ken will deliver your dress at Dawn, specifically hand made for you." Stuart tells her and turns to Christine," Let's go."
" are you going out somewhere?." Kourtney asks," I have to pick up someone at the airport, she prefers no one to pick her up but me." He tells her placing a kiss on her forehead and left with Christine, Kourtney was confused, she didn't know who Stuart was picking up at the airport, putting the thought away.
Stuart and Christine sat in the back seat while William drove them," you do know the type of job you signed up for right?." Stuart states," of course, I am aware, I took shooting classes at my age of 18, I can operate it well." Christine says simply, Soon they arrived at the airport, a teenage girl was seated on one of the seats, she was pretty with blue eyes, pink hair that reached her shoulders, she wore blue shorts and a gray crop too with white sneakers, she was busy on her phone, She looked up from her phone and saw Stuart approaching her, she stood up excitedly," Uncle!." She gave him a hug," little Chipmunk ." Stuart smiles," don't you think I'm too grown to be called that?." She frowns slightly," Maybe, but you will always be a little chipmunk to me." He gave a wide smile," Fine, now let's go I want to meet Kourtney, I have always wanted to meet her in person and finally my dream has come true, I can't believe she is your wife, my Aunt, she is family now, My friends and everybody who knows me will be so jealous." She said excitedly, Stuart chuckles gently leading her to the car.
