She watched backstage as he did the second press conference. It was part of the changes they issued in with the new WWE era.
The Paul "Triple H" Levesque era.
It was more sports-themed then entertainment. It had elements of storytelling but sports coverage. Kamaria worked closely with the production crew and writers to get this vibe to make the transition. She watched the monitor with Paul Heyman, and now Dwayne.
"Relax Kamaria. He's doing great out there. Today was a clusterfuck of announcements, but he's handling it well", Heyman said.
"I know, it's just nerve-racking. I talked to Stephanie to check on her, and this isn't fun. The harassing calls is too much", Kamaria said.
As they tried to have "normal" the lawsuit was leaked. No one, including Paul, knew what the details were until today. To be asked twice about it was a lot for him, but he decided to be straightforward about it. He truly knew nothing, but he needed to have a meeting with Stephanie after this, considering she was attached to this litigation.
Exiting the left of the stage, Kamaria walked off before Paul got back to her. Dwayne noticed and walked after her. Paul approached Heymen and Roman. He looked to see Kamaria leaving and Dwayne leaving right behind her.
"Listen, we will do notes tomorrow morning. Go after your girl", Roman said.
"Yeah, we gotta plan out the details for the next meeting in the morning. Gentleman, excuse me".
Kamaria got to their locker area and began to pack up her stuff. She just wanted out of that space. She wasn't sure she was strong enough to deal with FBI raids and getting served. This took place before she was hired and she knew nothing. Then there was her man. She just wanted a break for once. Just one damn break.
"Ree, you decent?"
"Yeah, come in".
"Listen, I know it's a lot to go through with Paul and this lawsuit looks scary. Remember this is why you brought me in".
"Yeah I know, I just want to get away for a while I can't think and this is a lot to take in".
Paul walked in to see them talking.
"Can we talk alone please?"
"Yeah, I'm leaving. I'll see you in the morning to plan the next moves".
"Yeah, yeah".
Dwayne left out to her still packing and he just watched her. It wasn't her. She was frantically grabbing things and packing.
"We can run from this Ree".
"I know! You think I don't know this! Listen, I didn't sign on to this. I had the FBI at my apartment. They tore up my house Paul".
"Ree, I know, they came to the house".
"You got the girls to think about as well, I mean Stephanie is named".
"I KNOW! My ex may or may not have known. She looking at jail time if they got after her too", he breathed.
"We are all collateral damage because this family has a power kink. I gotta go".
"Ree please. Do not leave like this".
"I need time. Do not come for me. You need to be with your girls. I just need time. I'll call you later, alright".
She walked out with tears, and he just watched her walk away. He couldn't blame her. She shouldn't be punished for his ex-wife's family and their obsession with power. He had to make some changes if he thought Kamaria would be a part of his life always. Giving her space, he walked out that office on a mission. It was time to hash things out with Stephanie no matter what she thought or the timing.
