A month later….
Steph returned to Stamford and was making arrangements to move back to the US with the girls. She went to her office ready to meet with Heyman. Steph opened the drawer and pulled out the folder. Sitting at her desk she noticed it seemed light. Opening it she saw Sams note. "NOOOO! THAT BITCH!"
Steph ran from the room looking around to find Hunter or Sam. "WHERE IS SHE! SAM! GET OUT HERE! YOU PEASANT GET OUT HERE! You don't know who you're messing with! I will ruin you!"
In the meeting room sat Vince, Linda, Hunter, Samantha, Shane, WWE lawyers and, private counsel. Passing the meeting room she saw Sam sitting by her father. Sam slowly looked up with an evil grin. Security stood at the door and escorted Steph in the room and shutting it behind him. "What's going on?"
Vince was angry," Stephanie SIT! NOW!" He stood up and grabbed her arm pushing her in a seat across from Sam and Hunter. He threw the file, photos, and financial documents in front of her. Steph looked around seeing Heyman at the end of the table scared and wide-eyed.
"You snake! You told her, didn't you? You were so afraid of losing your job you told her." Speaking to Heyman.
"No, I swear." He shook his head.
"That's funny. You sang like a bird once you entered this room and saw that check with your name on it." Hunter spoke and shook his head. "Worthless worm."
Sam shifted in her seat. Uncomfortable in her pregnant state.
"Daddy you can't believe this," Steph begged.
Vince grew even angrier, "Don't say one word. If you do you will lose EVERYTHING! You will sit there and listen."
Steph's eyes grew wide. She knew her dad was serious. She knew he meant her money cut off. He threatened it before when he found out about the attacks.
"You had me attacked, your own husband too, and NOW THIS! You could have cost this company everything. Had Paul and Sam have not cared enough about this company and the people in it we all would be ruined by this. You would be in your way to prison had Sam not came up to another solution out of all this. Paul and I have been working on this matter for months trying to figure out where the money was going. It is being fed into an overseas account to be sent back in six months after you destroyed Hunter's reputation? His life and my grandchildren's life. Now...Samantha, tell my daughter what the consequences of her actions will be."
"Don't you dare speak to me you piece of trash. I am the queen here not you!" Steph yelled.
Linda stood up," Stephanie you will shut up and listen. You're no queen or princess. Stop staying that like you are some sort of an overprivileged brat."
"Thank you, Linda, but, I think Steph will be glad to hear what I have to say. The WWE lawyers and investors have decided before this meeting if she does not comply she will be taken out of here in handcuffs." Sam spoke earnestly.
"FINE!" She sat back in a huff.
"So Steph, when you asked me to fax this so important memo for you, I was unable to find anything in Hunter's office so I went to yours. I Was always welcome to do so in the past. Until recently. Being if I didn't find them you would berate me as you always seem to love to do. I lied to my husband for months about how you treat me. I did so for your children who I have grown to love very much. Aurora begged me on the phone to try to get along with you so she could see her daddy. That girl is smart and she knows much more than either of you realize." Sam smiled thinking about the sweet girl befriending her when even Hunter wouldn't.
"Now, I have asked everyone here to not speak why I tell you the stipulations we have come up with. They will be able to say their piece once I have finished. Ouch." She grabbed her belly standing.
"Honey, you ok?" Hunter reached up to her rubbing her back.
"No...no. I'm fine. Just sat too long I think. Now...Steph we won't go over what is in that envelope. We have all went over that on our own yesterday in a meeting with your father. After all, you and Mr. Heyman know exactly what is there. Being Heyman ran his mouth about following Hunter and me before, it was a confession that this was all too real. He also has written a statement saying his involvement. Thinking it was leading to some grand storyline and more cash for him and his client. Apparently, you promise more than you can deliver. That being said, we have figured out how everyone in the company, including you, can avoid a nuclear meltdown of the company. Also ruining all of our lives in the media." Sam moved to rub her back. She started to walk around the room.
"First off, you will sit in this room after this meeting writing a statement telling EVERYTHING you have done regarding this and anything that has hurt anyone in this company. So I suggest you better cancel your evening appointments and maybe tomorrow too since I figure there is a book worth of things you've done. Next you will have your financial assets seized and go on a limited trust."
"DADDY NO!" Looking at him she instantly shut up.
"HUH, my back...the trust...an amount the lawyers deem fair to remain to live a comfortable lifestyle. Hunter, can I have some water please?" She rubbed her head. "We don't want to take anything from the girls normal lives with you. They will not really be able to see a difference but, you will know what it's like to live life on a budget, as I am sure you have been too spoiled to know the meaning of money. Or the efforts your parents put to give you this life. Anything more must be run through your father's lawyers and his approval. You no longer will have company financial access and all funds unaccounted for will be returned by the end of the business day tomorrow. Now we come to Hunter and I. You will have no contact with either of us without a personal representative present chose by your father and Hunter. We are aware of your upcoming divorce. I am sure your recent advances toward my husband has had something to do with that. So Vince decided it is best for you to not be on the show for some time. A year suspension should be enough. But, on days you are needed on the show you will have an escort to be sure you are not hurting anyone else. You will no longer have any say in RAW, Smackdown, NXT or other promotions. But you will be allowed to continue your work in marketing and the European division. We all agree you do a great job at that and know that is what you have loved doing. We don't want this all to be forever. If you prove you have changed, these rule may change. But for now, you will be monitored as well as undergo therapy and anger management. Umm...I need to sit. Hunter can you go over the more personal aspects please."
"Gladly. Steph this man next to our lawyer is a custody judge. After hearing what you have done, I think it is in the best interest of the girls to come to live with me and Sam. Your not stable right now and until I see you are trustworthy I can't have you endangering them. I'm not taking them. You will get visitation as I had. Just roles will be changed. You're a good mom. I just think you need help. Help none of us can give you." Hunter tried to stay calm.
Steph started to weep knowing what she had done cost her her regular life with her children. Sam spoke up. "I really wanted us all to be a family. I don't want your girls to not have their mom. Losing mine was the worst day of my life. Aurora asked us months ago to live with us. She hears you talk poorly of Hunter and it hurts her. Steph they see what you're doing. It's better to give them to Hunter for now till you can get in a better place mentally. All this anger you hang onto isn't good for them."
"I know." Steph hung her head down. "I will do everything you ask. Just, please. Don't take my babies. Don't tell them all this. Let me see them, Hunter."
"You can. But, first, you need to go away for a while to get better. If you don't agree, you go to prison and I don't what my kids to have to know you there. I should have known years ago. I just was blind to it. I did care for you Steph but, you will never know love until you love yourself."
In the back, her husband stood up. She didn't know he was there. He walked over taking her hand. "Steph, we can work on this together. Fix our marriage. Take the offer. I'll be there when you get out of the treatment center. I'm not giving up on us." She rubbed his face.
"I don't deserve you." Steph cried. "One thing. Heyman keeps his job. I talked him into this and threatened him that I would ruin him too. Don't fire him or Brock. I blackmailed them into doing it all."
Steph took the papers in front of her and started to sign the documents. Sam put her hand over them. 'Ouch...One more thing..." Trying to get her breath, Wrestlemania. We end this in the ring. Settle it the way WWE always does. You and I. No holds barred...ohhhh!"
Sam reached over to Hunter and asked to be excused he stood up and helped her to the door. "OH NO! MY WATER JUST BROKE!"
Steph stood up shocked, "Oh no! Sam, it's too soon! This is my fault!" She ran over to try to help Sam and Hunter pushed her away.
"No..It's...ohhhh...PAUL. It hurts!" Hunter picked her up running her to the car. Vince and Linda close behind.
"Vince call my mom and dad. I'm taking her to the hospital."
Hunter drove as fast as he could to the hospital. Once there they rushed her into the ER. The doctors managed to slow her contractions. In the delivery room, Hunter sat and prayed while holding his wife's hand. "I should have known this was all too much. I wouldn't have let you go in there with Steph. I should have gone on my own."
"Baby no. I've been having pain all day. The doctor said it was possible with twins to come early. OH! Hunter, I feel like I need to push!" She rubbed his head.
"Not yet baby. NURSE!" Hunter yelled.
The doctor rushed in to check her out, "Ok these babies are coming now. Sam, I need you to push."
"NO! Now? They said it was slowing down!"
"Babe I'm here. Push." Hunter took her hand.
A few minutes later she delivered her daughter. "Its a girl! Seconds later their son started to come. "He's breach. Sam this is going to be a little painful," the doctor said.
The doctor turned the baby and their son was finally born. "Its a boy! Sam, they look a little underweight but healthy. We will know more when they are cleaned up and assessed. Would you like to hold you twins?"
"Yes! Please." They laid both babies on her chest and she looked at Hunter lovingly. "They are beautiful. So small. Paul, he looks like you."
"She looks like you, only with my hair. Hunter wiped a tear from his eyes, "I love you, Samantha. Our girl...she looks like a Helen to me. Helen Grace." He smiled.
"My mom's name, that's perfect. Should he be Michael Shawn Levesque? I think Shawn would be honored."
"You sure? I would love that." Hunter smiled.
"Yes. After all, Shawn is your best friend. And he has done so much for us."
"Alright, we need to take the babies for assessment. Once you're in the room we will bring them to you. They are a little underweight but, look to be ok. We think a week at the most and they should be ready to go home." The nurse smiled at her.
