Chapter 84 – Margot Robbie's Visit
It was a quiet night in Los Angeles. Jacob Stewart was at home, relaxing in his spacious living room with a glass of red wine in hand. The soft LED lighting created a cozy atmosphere. He had spent the day training and posting content for his followers, and now, finally, he could rest.
That's when his iPhone vibrated on the coffee table.
MARGOT ROBBIE: "Hey, I'm in LA. What do you think about seeing me?"
Jacob raised an eyebrow and smiled. He and Margot Robbie had a special connection for years, and even with their busy schedules, they always managed to see each other whenever they could.
He replied without hesitation:
JACOB: "Sure. Come over."
Margot's Arrival
A short time later, the sound of a car stopping at the driveway echoed through the house. Jacob got up and went to the door. When he opened it, there she was.
Margot Robbie was wearing a fitted black dress with a light jacket over it. Her blonde hair was loose, and her blue eyes sparkled when she saw him.
— MARGOT (smiling): "Hi, stranger."
— JACOB (crossing his arms): "Hi, beautiful. Long time no see, huh?"
She laughed and leaned in for a hug. Her floral, captivating perfume immediately hit him.
— MARGOT: "I know! We always say we'll see each other, but we never manage to. Hollywood has that effect on us."
— JACOB (closing the door): "Yeah. But today there's no excuse."
She laughed and went inside, looking around the house.
— MARGOT: "Did you redecorate? It's different since the last time I was here."
— JACOB (leaning against the counter): "A few changes. But tell me, how was your year?"
— MARGOT: "It's been a total whirlwind. Movies, events, travel... But what about you? You seem to have become the new real-life John Wick."
Jacob laughed and poured her another glass of wine.
— JACOB: "Let's just say I got deep into USPSA and Jiu-Jitsu. But let's not talk about work now. I want to hear about you."
Margot took the glass, took a sip, and observed him for a few seconds.
— MARGOT: "You're different, you know? You seem more... mature."
Jacob raised an eyebrow.
— JACOB: "Is that a compliment?"
— MARGOT: "Definitely."
The two sat on the sofa, talking for hours. They talked about future projects, about how the celebrity life could be tiring, and about the times when they just wanted to escape it all.
At one point, Margot picked up her cell phone and started scrolling through social media.
— MARGOT (laughing): "Did you see that? The fans are going crazy over your Calvin Klein campaign. There are some pretty... explicit comments."
Jacob chuckled, taking her phone to read.
— JACOB: "Well, I tried to warn the brand that it might cause this kind of reaction."
— MARGOT: "Oh, sure. You knew exactly what you were doing, Jacob."
She winked at him, and Jacob smiled slightly.
The atmosphere shifted. Her gaze deepened, and he realized that getting closer was inevitable.
— MARGOT: "You know, it's been a long time since we've spent time like this... just the two of us."
Jacob placed his glass on the table and looked into her eyes.
— JACOB: "Yes, too long."
She leaned in, and their lips met in a slow, longing kiss. The connection between them was still there, as strong as before.
Margot ran her fingers through Jacob's hair, deepening the kiss. He pulled her closer, feeling the warmth of her body against his.
Without a word, she took his hand and led him toward the bedroom.
The morning sun streamed through the curtains, softly illuminating the space. Jacob slowly opened his eyes and saw Margot still asleep beside him, her blonde hair spread across the pillow.
He watched her for a few seconds, admiring the tranquility on her face.
Shortly after, Margot opened her eyes and smiled when she saw him awake.
— MARGOT (whispering): "Good morning, Jacob."
— JACOB: "Good morning, Margot."
She stretched and looked around.
— MARGOT: "Wow, I think I overslept."
Jacob laughed and propped himself up on his elbow.
— JACOB: "No problem. It was a... memorable night."
Margot gave a mischievous smile and sat up in bed, pulling the sheet close to her body.
— MARGOT: "And as always, you haven't changed a bit. You're still that irresistible guy."
— JACOB (smiling slightly): "I could say the same about you."
Margot glanced at the clock and sighed.
— MARGOT: "I'd love to stay here all day, but I have some meetings today."
Jacob nodded, knowing they both had busy lives.
— JACOB: "I understand. But it was good to see you."
She leaned in and gave him one last kiss before getting up to get her clothes.
— MARGOT: "I'll text you later. Who knows, maybe we can repeat this soon?"
Jacob smiled.
— JACOB: "You know where to find me."
She winked at him and left the room, leaving behind her distinctive perfume and the memory of another unforgettable night. Jacob leaned back on the bed, staring at the ceiling and thinking, "I definitely need to go in with her more often."
And with that, another story was added to Jacob Stewart's intense life.
Chapter 85 – The Launch of John Wick 2
The Big Night in Los Angeles
It was January 30, 2017, and Los Angeles was lit up in a special way that night. The glow of the signs, the spotlights sweeping the sky, and the bustling streets gave an even grander air to the most anticipated event of the month: the premiere of "John Wick: Chapter 2".
The film, distributed by Summit Entertainment, had already been one of the most talked-about topics since the announcement of the sequel. The first film was an absolute success, and now, with Jacob Stewart taking on the lead role, the expectation was even greater.
The Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, the venue chosen for the event, was surrounded by fans, photographers, and journalists from all over the world. Giant posters of the film adorned the facades. In one of them, the iconic image of Jacob Stewart as John Wick, with his impeccable dark suit and intense gaze, holding his pistol, dominated the scene.
The energy in the air was electric.
Jacob Stewart, the star of the night, arrived at the event in impeccable style. He wore a bespoke black Giorgio Armani suit, with a perfect cut that accentuated his athletic physique. Flashes went off non-stop as he stepped out of the armored black SUV and onto the red carpet.
The crowd went wild.
— FANS (screaming): "JACOB! JACOB! OVER HERE!!!"
— PHOTOGRAPHERS: "Jacob, look over here! Jacob, a smile!"
He waved to the fans, distributing smiles and signing some autographs. Unlike many Hollywood stars who walked straight past, Jacob liked to give attention to the public, taking photos and exchanging a few words with those who managed to get close.
— JACOB (smiling at a fan): "Are you excited for the movie?"
— FAN (eyes shining): "Oh my God, yes! I've seen the first one a thousand times! You're amazing!"
— JACOB: "I hope you like this one too. It has a lot more action!"
After greeting some fans, he headed for the interviews. Journalists crowded around, each trying to get a few words out of the star of the night.
The reporter from "Entertainment Tonight" was the first to approach.
— REPORTER: "Jacob, what an incredible night! How are you feeling?"
— JACOB (smiling): "Excited. We worked hard on this film, and it's great to finally share it with the public."
— REPORTER: "The transition from the first film to this one was intense. What was it like getting into the role of John Wick?"
— JACOB: "It was a challenge. I spent months training hand-to-hand combat, tactical shooting, high-speed driving... everything to make the character as authentic as possible."
The next interview was with Variety.
— VARIETY: "Jacob, many people say you've become the 'real-life John Wick' because of your training and dedication. What do you think of that?"
— JACOB (laughing): "Well, I don't have a dog to avenge yet, so I hope the comparison stops there."
Everyone laughed at the humorous response.
He went on to more interviews, answering questions about the action scenes, what he expected from the film's success, and what it was like working with the cast.
