Chapter 11 - Chapter 11of100 Miscarriage

On a Friday morning, Stuart left the office early in the morning like any other day, and Kourtney left for her shoot early in the morning," Kourtney I have a massive good news for you." Miss jacks takes her hand leading her to her office and closes the door," what's that?." Kourtney asks," do you know "ALL STARS " Corporations?."

" yes, they are like the biggest film industry in LOS ANGELES." Kourtney said," Well the manager just called me since they are releasing " ONE PASSIONATE NIGHT " Season Two -

" I love that show really." Kourtney smiles excited that a new season will be released," yeah and they would like you to feature in five of their episodes isn't cool?." Jacks smiles widely," wait what." Kourtney was surprised and shocked at the same time," Jacks I'm a Model I know nothing about acting, and it's a hit series how can I just feature when I know nothing about acting?."

" that's why they're directors to direct you, think about it Kourtney, this will boost your career, your fans will die to know you'll be featuring in the most wanted and watched TV Series, think about it." Miss jacks holds her shoulders," LOS ANGELES huh? I don't know jacks." Kourtney couldn't come to a decision," you don't have to decide now just sleep on it and you can let me what you have decided, the trailer needs to stream a month from now and you need to be in it, so let me know quickly okay." She taps her shoulder and walks out of her office, Kourtney sighs heavily, it was a big deal and a life time opportunity, she needs this and it will be good for her career mostly important because she will be doing something different," think about it carefully Kourtney, think." She tells herself, after the shoot they took five and she went out for lunch with Cassy.

At a coffee shop downtown, William enters the Cafe and approaches the counter," Good morning Sir, what may I offer you?." Pitches greets," I'm looking for Pitches Greg."

" that's me, how may I help you? Am I in trouble?." She asks worriedly," of course not, I have been sent Mr Levant, please come with me." William tells her," Mr Levant asks to see me?." Pitches blinks a few times, her heart was racing with excitement she turns to her work mate taking off her apron," Krista I'm on my lunch break, I'll be right back."

" alright." Pitches grabs her coat and leaves with William, soon they arrived at the Levant corporation, Pitches gets out of the car staring at the tall amazing building in front of her, people were going in and out of the building, they all looked educated and smart," this way." William leads the way and she follows behind quietly inside, the inside was more fascinating and fancy, they went into the elevator and stopped at the seventh floor," you may go ahead." He tells her while he stayed back," Miss Greg! May I take your coat?." A blonde woman approaches her and pitches takes it off," Go Mr Levant will see you now." Another woman seated behind the receptionist desk tells her, a tall woman with dark brown hair approaches her," this way." She led her towards two double black doors, Pitches pushes them open and went inside, there was a tall blonde woman standing beside him, she was pretty and wore a dark blue suit with black leather high heels, her hair was tied up into a ponytail, she looked serious and intimidating," sit." She heard Stuart's voice speak while his eyes were glued to some papers he was going through on his black smooth wooden table," Good morning." She greets warmly, Stuart hands Christine the papers before she left the room," Kourtney wanted me to hand you this," He slides a black file to her, pitches picks it up opening it and goes through it, her eyes widens looking at Stuart," this, this is-

" your school scholarship, you can go back to school and finish your studies and graduate, I will take care of everything, if you need anything you can reach my assistant Lisa and it will be done." Stuart simply tells her," I can't believe this is really happening, thank you very much Sir, I promise I won't let you down." Pitches smiles," you may go back to work or you might lose your job and my wife will surely make me want to hire an underage girl." Stuart spoke, pitches gets up thanking him one last time before leaving.

At City Hospital, Tyler was heading out to go grab something to eat when he saw Linda sitting in her office doing nothing, he softly knocks on her door going inside," Are you okay?." He asks," yeah, yes I am, do you need anything?." Linda asks," I was going to grab a bite, Care to join me?." Tyler gave a slight smile," Well I am pretty hungry, why not." Linda gets up removing her coat and grabs her phone, they left the hospital and went to the restaurant downtown, Tyler ordered a bowl of green salads, fruit salads and a glass of orange juice, Linda ordered fries with green salads and orange juice," I would really like to know you on a different perspective Doctor, who is Linda Martinez?." Tyler takes a sip of his juice," well I was brought up in a middle class family, my father worked for the government and my mother was a house wife, I have two little sisters both in college, I'm the first in my family and I want to make them proud." She said," interesting." Tyler smiles," tell me about you, I only know who Doctor Tyler is, what I want to know is who Tyler Kiel is."

" well I don't like talking to people about me, but since it's you I'll spill a little, I have a eighteen year old daughter, i am a very private person." He tells her, Linda nods," and your wife?." She gave a slight smile," I'm not married." Tyler smiles, the two of them spent an hour just talking and getting to know each other before going back to the hospital.

The sun went down and noon came, Kourtney was in her gray sweatpants and a white sweater warming herself up, Stuart arrived back home and Luciana welcomes him like any other night, after dinner she insisted Stuart to take her to her room and tuck her in bed, Stuart sat on the edge of the bed next to her," I would like to ask you a few questions, is it okay with you?." He asks her, Luciana sits up leaning on the bed board nodding, Stuart faces her taking a breath in," that night when you were shot and fell from the boat, what happened? How did you survive and where were you all this time?." Stuart asks her, Luciana trembled by the thought of it, she looked like her soul just rushed out of her body, Stuart could see fear in her eyes, he holds her hand squeezing it gently," you can tell me no one will harm you here, I'm here for you Luciana I want to help you." He adds," that,that night I, I fell into the cold water, I was sure I was gonna die, I was drowning and faded out, when I finally opened my eyes I was welcomed by a bright light reflecting my eyes, I looked around and I could see that I was in a big white room by the smell of it I could tell it was a hospital or should I say a facility, they were doctors and nurses, they treated my gun wound, I was kept there for two years, then moved to another facility in another country for two years, I moved from one facility to another, they gave me different medications and injections, I begged them to release me, I cried and screamed out till my voice gave up, I felt numb, I lost faith, I gave up trying, the only thing that kept me alive is that one day I will see you again, I will be in your arms again, feel your touch and warmth, I never stopped thinking about you Stuart that was the only thing that kept me alive and kicking." Luciana could only let tears roll down her face," who? Who held you captivate for all these years?." Stuart said with anger and annoyance in his voice," Damian, I was being held by his orders." She cried out, Stuart wasn't surprised, he knew what Damian was capable of, he has always eyed Luciana ever since they were teenagers, he has always wanted what Stuart had, but what surprised Stuart the most is that Damian actually had the nerve to kidnap his girlfriend without thinking about the consequences and the fear of his own life, and the fact that he actually managed to keep her hidden for over ten years without a tress, Stuart holds Luciana's cheek staring into her eyes," did he touch you?."

" I'm sorry, I had no strength to push him away, he was to strong for me." Luciana cried out even louder leaning on Stuart's chest, Stuart wrapped his arms around her comforting her," you're here now everything will be fine." He comforts her, Luciana cried some more it hurt opening old wounds especially if they didn't fully recover, Stuart pulls her back wiping her tears with his thump, Luciana stared at his red tempting lips, how long it had been since she last tasted those thin red lips, she missed him so much and she just wanted to be in his arms, Stuart could see her eyes were glued to his lips, he stared back at her thin pink lips, he caresses them with his thumb, Luciana moved closer colliding her lips with his, her lips were soft and tender, Stuart kisses her back holding the back of her head, Luciana took off his jacket and began to unbutton his shirt, they were both lost in the heat and wanted each other, Stuart pinned her down on the bed kissing her neck, collarbone and down to her chest, Luciana moans softly feeling the pleasure, Stuart striped off her clothes and entered her, he made love to her and Luciana slept in his arms the entire night.

The next morning Kourtney woke up she couldn't find Stuart anywhere in the room, last night she waited for him for half an hour that she got really tired and fell into a slumber, she got up really early, went to the bathroom to take a warm shower and went back to the room to get dressed, a blue summer dress with slippers on, today she had no shoot and just wanted to take a relaxing day off the cameras and lights, she left her room going downstairs," Good morning Mrs Levant." Kate and Talia greets," Good morning, no one is up yet I see." Kourtney says going back upstairs, she wanted to check up on Cassy but remembered what she walked into the last time she was there, she makes a U-turn going to check on Luciana, she knocks softly opening the door, her heart and entire system dropped seeing both Stuart and Luciana entangled in bed, naked under the sheets, her eyes turned red from the watery tears that was forming in her eyes, Stuart shifted in bed opening his eyes slowly, his wide eyes landed on the girl standing on the door way looking pale and unable to stand on her two feet, Kourtney quickly left the place running back to her room," Kourtney! Damn it." Stuart cursed calling out to her, Luciana was fast asleep, he got dressed quickly and ran after her, Kourtney stood at the window crying out," Kourtney!," Stuart came into the room," I can explain." He adds," you don't owe me any explanation, you and her never broke up in the first place, she's still your girlfriend, why would I be upset?." Kourtney says calmly," it was a mistake I assure you, we were both entangled in our own emotions and lost control, it didn't mean anything." Stuart tells her, Kourtney turns around to face him," Mistake you say? the only mistake I made is agreeing to pretend to be your wife, agreeing to be part of your drama and plans, the biggest mistake I made is letting myself fall in love with you Stuart, yes I love you and I regret it, I regret it so much because I feel like a fool right now to think you will love me back, to ever think that they could be a chance but I was wrong, one month Stuart, only one month before this contract expires, and I swear I will be out of your life for good, you will never see me again, you and I will never cross paths again, just one month, Damn you I hate you." Kourtney cries out hitting his chest, Stuart didn't stop her, he let her hit him so she could let all her anger out, Kourtney continued hitting him till she was tired, she felt a strong pain under her abdomen hit her," AH!." She screams out painfully falling to the ground," Kourtney! Are you okay?." Stuart clutches down holding her shoulders," AHH! It hurts." Kourtney cries out touching her lower stomach," what's wrong?." Stuart saw blood between her thighs and stained her dress," Damn it." He picks her up in his arms," my baby Stuart." Kourtney cries out fearing that she might have had a miscarriage, Stuart rushed her out and into the car, soon they arrived at City Hospital and she was rushed into the theater room, Stuart was worried about Kourtney and her unborn baby, he could only sit there holding his head staring at the floor, after a while Linda and Tyler walked out and by the look on their faces they didn't have good news," how is she?." Stuart stood up as soon as he saw them," Kourtney will be alright, she's safe but needs to rest for while." Tyler informs him," and the baby?." Stuart asks," I am sorry but she lost the baby due to stress and emotional breakdown, I'm sorry for loss once more, excuse me." Linda said her regards and walked away, Stuart stayed calm, his eyes showing no sign of pain but he was hurting inside, he blamed himself for what happened to Kourtney and her losing their baby, the nurses transferred Kourtney to the VIP room to get some rest and Stuart went to be with her, after an hour Kourtney opened her eyes, Stuart held her hand kissing it softly," Hey." He says but Kourtney didn't say a word or move, she didn't turn her head to look at him she only kept on staring at the wall," is she awake?." Tyler walks in approaching them," she's not moving or saying anything, what's wrong." Stuart frowns, Tyler sighs," she's in shock, I have had a lot of patients who suffer from accepting the loss of their pregnancy, first they're in total shock, then denial , then emotional breakdown and lastly acceptance, with time she will heal and move on just stay by her side and give her your undivided attention." Tyler tells him before leaving the room, Stuart tried talking to her but to no use, she just stayed still like a statue till she fell into sleep, Stuart went to Tyler's office and found Xavier sitting on the couch boredom," I'm guessing she fell asleep." Tyler said, Stuart sat on the white couch leaning back," she must have seen or heard or even experienced some kind of event, what really happened Stuart? What caused Kourtney to have a miscarriage?." Tyler narrows his eyes at him, they were sharp and serious, cold and piercing, Stuart sighs pinching the skin between his brows before opening his mouth to speak," she saw me in bed with Luciana this morning, I spent a night with Luciana." He says calmly, Xavier wanted to choke on his saliva, he knew Stuart and Kourtney weren't legally married, after all it was his idea that Stuart fakes a marriage to some girl so his parents wouldn't marry him off to Samantha, when he heard the news that Stuart married a famous model non other than Kourtney Grenade he was stunned and amused, I guess we all want someone who is doing better in life," I can't believe you had s*x with your ex -girlfriend and your wife caught you." Xavier chuckles , Stuart narrows his piercing eyes at him which made him shut his mouth instantly," Doctor! The patient is awake and she is demanding to see her baby." A nurse rushed into the room, Stuart stood up rushing out, Tyler and Xavier followed behind," my baby I want to see my baby." Kourtney shouts out," Wife." Stuart rushes to her side holding her shoulders," Stuart tell, tell them to bring my baby, I..i gave birth right? I want to see my baby please bring her to me." Kourtney was anxiously asking for her baby, Stuart was out of words, she was already hurting so much and he didn't want to hurt her more telling her the truth but he had to," calm down."

" don't freaking tell me to calm down Stuart, I want my baby." Kourtney removed his hands away from her shoulders," you didn't give birth, you lost it you lost our baby, you had a miscarriage, it's dead." Kourtney widened her eyes, they were red and swollen, she collapsed down breaking into a loud cry," everyone leave." Stuart ordered coldly, everyone left closing the door behind, Stuart lifted her up laying her on the bed," I'm sorry, I'm sorry that you lost our baby because of me, I'm sorry that you're suffering right now because of me, find it in you to forgive me Kourtney." Stuart was gentle while he said those words, Kourtney wanted to forgive him but it was just so hard for her at the moment, she just lost her baby because of him, Kourtney turned to the other side in a sleeping position, Stuart sighs covering her with the sheets, she fell asleep immediately. At dawn Stuart took her back home," can I sleep in your room tonight?." Kourtney asks Cassy," Sure you get some rest okay." Cassy told her, Kourtney went straight upstairs while Stuart watched her straight proud back disappear through the hall way," you can sleep in my room tonight if you want to." Xavier smirked," not tonight playboy." Cassy rolls her eyes going upstairs, Xavier bit onto his lower lip smiling to himself before sighing," wanna get a drink?." Xavier asks," one glass." Stuart said going to the living room and sat on the chair near the fireplace, Xavier poured him a drink and sat on the opposite side," I think you get her pregnant again that's the only way she'll forgive you." Xavier spoke, Stuart didn't say a word his mind was else where, like where to find Damian, of course he had to make it up to Kourtney but right now he needs to give her time to heal and he'll do just that.

Weeks went by quickly, Kourtney was grieving for her loss in private but would act and smile in front of people like she was very much happy, the media didn't know that she was pregnant nor did they know about her miscarriage so it was very much easier for her to move on slowly, today she had a meeting with the "ALL STARS " Movie corporation with the director and producers, they set the date of the official trailer of " ONE PASSIONATE NIGHT " and they couldn't wait to have Kourtney as the biggest star in the series, after finishing up Her meeting, William picked Kourtney and Cassy up in a black Limousine, Christine was seated on one of the seats in the back, the car drove to the tall building in the middle of the City to the left, William opened the door for the ladies and Kourtney steps out of the car going inside the building with Cassy, Christine and William trailing behind her, a gray car packed on the opposite and a tall woman and man dressed in gray suits went inside the building, the receptionist stood up when she saw and recognized Kourtney," Welcome to Brandon Steal corporation, how may I help you?." She smiles warmly," we are here to see Mr Dan." William said," Mr Dan is having a meeting right, I can direct you to his office and wait for him there?." She said, William nods and she led them to Mike's office, within thirty minutes Mike returned back to his office and saw Kourtney sitting on his chair and other people standing to her side," about time you got here." Kourtney said leaning back in the chair," what's going here? And why are you in my chair?." Mike asks," you mean my chair point of correction Mr Dan," Kourtney corrected," Helen please hand Mr Dan the papers." Kourtney said to her lawyer, Helen handed the blue file to Mike, he opened the file going through them reading each paper," if you have a good eyesight you will see that this company doesn't belong to you anymore, it's now under my name, on the palm of my hand, Brandon Steal now belongs to me." Kourtney smiles," not only that, the property and houses you bought under my name when we were still together also belongs to me now, you can have that pity beach house in Chicago take it as a act of kindness from me, I'm not that heartless you know." Kourtney added," act of kindness? Mike repeats," you're taking my company away from me the company I worked so hard on to reach where I am today, and my houses-

" you mean my houses and my company, it seems you've forgotten Mike, it's because of me that you've managed to reach this end, I invested all my money every penny I had to grow your company when your good for nothing father borrowed a huge amount of money to invest in something stupid and suffered a loss, this company was ready to be shut down and ruined but I saved it, Leave us," Kourtney ordered everyone to leave the room and they respectively left to wait outside, Kourtney stood up from her chair approaching Mike and stood in front of him," You ruined me Mike, I'm simply returning the favor, if I wanted you dead you would be long gone by now but no, even the devils punishment won't be enough to cover what you need, he might pity you but I won't, this is only the beginning, you will come to me and beg me to kill you but my devil won't let me." Kourtney smiles deviously and walked pass him when she stopped in her tracks," or yes, I won't leave you jobless you still need to put food on your table if you have one, from now on you will be working as Cassy's Secretary, she will take over this company now isn't it fun, from a boss to an employee, it's not a request by the way it's an order." She said seriously before walking out of the room, Mike looked pale and weak at the moment, he never thought he would lose everything in a blink of an eye, he really underestimated Kourtney, he felt like laughing out loud, to laugh at himself for being so dumb and naive to underestimate her and her so called husband Stuart, he dashed out of the office and out of the building like a crazy person and got into his car and drove off.

Kourtney went back home after a long exhausting day," Welcome." She heard a gentle voice speak from behind her, Kourtney turned around and saw Damian leaning to the living room wall," You! what are you doing here?." Kourtney was confused, she hasn't seen Damian ever since the ball party that night," you have some naive to be here after what you did to poor innocent girl." Kourtney was now angry, Stuart told her everything that happened to Luciana and that Damian was behind everything just so he could get revenge on him, Luciana didn't have a family, her parents died in a car accident when she was five, her Aunt didn't want to take responsibility for her so she sent abandoned her outside a church, they took her in and took care of her, at the age of sixteen she ran away and slept in the streets for two nights, an old woman helped her and took her in to leave with her, she was so kind and sweet, she used the money she used to make in her shop and sent Luciana to a good school, that's were she met Samantha her first ever best friend, Samantha knew Stuart from her childhood, her parents and Stuart's parents were close good friends and wanted them to get married when they grow up, but Stuart was never interested in Samantha he only saw her as a friend nothing more, but Samantha was so in love with him, she introduced Luciana to Stuart and Tyler, Luciana was never a classy rich girl but Stuart saw something in her that he couldn't explain, she was simple, quiet, innocent and pretty, they started hanging out together and finally made her his girlfriend, Stuart never asked anything from her that she would feel uncomfortable with, they only shared hugs and Stuart was content with that as long as she was happy till that unfortunate incident happened and he lost her.

Damian chuckles looking at Kourtney in the eyes," I wonder why Stuart always gets the pretty ones, and the astonishing part is that whatever he gets or have, I want it to I mean look, he had Luciana and damn I couldn't resist myself from wanting her to till I got her, don't get me wrong I begged her to leave Stuart and want me instead because I love her but no, she chose him over and over and over again, I was losing patient and I did what I had to do."

" you're crazy, you need help." Kourtney narrows her eyes," no what I need is Stuart to give up and admit I'm the best." Damian said," only the devil manipulates innocent people, you Damian is no different from him." Kourtney said staring right into his non caring emotionless eyes," you are a tough nut not to crack but you know how the saying goes " THE DEVIL YOU KNOW IS BETTER THAN THE ANGEL YOU DON'T KNOW " so tell me Kourtney! would you rather trust an angel you don't know and never seen before or devil you perfectly know?." Damian gave a sly devious smirk, Kourtney frowns, she didn't know where he was heading with this, does he mean Stuart is not the type of person he appears to be? Is he hiding something more from her? Kourtney shook her head she won't let Damian into her head and poison it," get out, leave now." Kourtney said," I'll be seeing you soon sister-in-law." Damian smiles before walking out of the house and left, Kourtney took in a deep breath going upstairs.

Night fell and Kourtney was getting ready for bed, she stepped out of the bathroom wearing her short silky white nightdress, showing her long sexy thighs, she was tying her hair when Stuart walked into the room, he put his phone and car keys on the bedside table removing his jacket," Good evening." He greets her," evening." She greets back getting in bed, Stuart went to the bathroom to take a cold shower, after freshening up he went back to the room got ready and wore only black boxers, he switched of the lights and laid down on the bed, they were pillows made in a straight line in the middle, Kourtney slept on the right side while Stuart slept to the left side, there was silence in the dim light room but non of them were asleep," You haven't said a full sentence to me for the past few weeks Kourtney, how long will we keep this up?." Stuart spoke first but didn't get a response from her," I'm sorry that I hurt you so much." It was the second time she heard him apologize, in fact it was the first time he has apologized to her, Stuart has never apologized to anyone before in his entire life, Kourtney was the first person he has apologized to, he also surprised himself because apologizes never cross his mouth, but he liked it in some way to apologize to her, only her,"are you still in love with Luciana?." Kourtney asked, Stuart didn't know how to answer her question, but he knew one thing and that was he wasn't in love with Luciana, he was only looking after her," should I take your silence a yes?." She asked in a flat tone," No, I'm not in love with Luciana, I'm simply trying to help her out, I owe her that." Stuart said, when Kourtney heard his response she was relieved, it was like a heavy rock was lifted off her shoulder but she needed to clear one last thing up like why they shared a night together, thinking about it just made her hurt more," yet you slept with her." She said sounding like she was about to cry," it was a mistake I shouldn't have made, I felt and still feel like I betrayed you, I wasn't in my right sense of mind." He tells her, Kourtney turned around to face him, they stared into each other's eyes, just by staring into her bright gray eyes he could see how much she loved him, cared for him and trusted him, Stuart stretched his arms cupping her cheek gently," you mean so much to me and I wouldn't want to lose that." He tells her, Kourtney couldn't hold back her feelings anymore, she missed him so much and wanted him, she moved closer colliding her lips with his, Stuart removed the bridge in between them pulling her in his arms, he made love to her slowly and passionately and made it last being in each other's arms, after a long love making they entangled in bed sleeping in each other's arms.
