Jason was in the hospital for a month. The doctor gave him 2 large stitches on each hand (knuckles) as he had hit the ceramic floor that hard.
Sasha was in Paris for her Fashion Week yearly judging when she had heard of what had happened to her brother & Sasha skipped the Show to come to the hospital to see her brother. Sasha phoned her father to find out what had happened. Her father (Mr. Matt) was not willing to tell her what she feared. Sasha knows her possessive her brother can be, it runs in the family bloodline. Sasha was afraid that her brother would go to jail for murder. Sasha hates Ashley but not to the point of seeing or wanting her dead. Sasha knows her brother loves Ashley, (despite that fact that Sasha hates Ashley, deep down inside the truth is that Sasha is actually jealous of Ashley because she's fat & so confident while Sasha is thin, beautiful yet so insecure & most men just want to have sex with her or for her money. Sasha always was jealous of Ashley from the very beginning).
Sasha was with her brother for that whole month. After a month Sasha had gone back to France as she was sightseeing & wanted to get away from her recent breakup with her boyfriend Scott Westwood (who had been cheating on her with her best friend). Everyone came to visit Jason at the hospital except for Ashley. Ashley was still in shock. Ashley was also having a nervous breakdown due to Jason's excessive possessiveness which was too frightening & too much for her to handle as well.
Mr. Matt thought that it would be better for his son to stay with him for a while. It would be better for Ashley as well. Mr. Matt had a talk with his son in the hospital.
Mr. Matt: Jas, I want you to stay with me & your mother for sometime. It's better for Ashley as well.
Jason: I don't care where I stay as long as Ashley is with me.
Mr. Matt: Also you can go home now, we are going to our place immediately. Your mama wants to see you again in the house, she misses you a lot.
Jason: Okay. Do whatever you want.
Jason was upset, angry & pissed for the fact that he has not seen Ashley for a month. He was also scared of her rejection after what had happened. Jason was sent home from the hospital, his wounds also had healed. He went home with his father. As soon as Jason was in the house, he ran to the house & in search of Ashley. Ashley was soon found in her bedroom sleeping. Ashley was busy whole day taking care of her mother-in-law, cooking, & doing some office work. Recently Ashley has been feeling very gloomy, tired & depressed as well after Jason hit her that's why she has been sleeping a lot.
Jason had gone to Ashley's bedroom then he locked the door. (Ashley was half asleep) Jason went close to Ashley & got onto the bed, then he touched her hair & whispered in her ear:-
"I'm sorry my love. Sorry for hurting you. I am sorry. But don't blame me darling you caused me to behave in such a manner. Maybe if you didn't let him kiss your hand, none of this would have happened."
Ashley suddenly woke up upon hearing those words, then out of the blue Ashley just slapped Jason. This stunned Jason. Ashley later spoke:-
Ashley: I love you, why would you hit me for? Not only hit me then blame me? I was doing my duty as a wife. I am second in command in the company, your wife, I have to be nice even if I don't want to also. (Shouting)
Jason: You want to justify what you did?
Ashley: I cannot stand you anymore. I want a divorce from you but I know you won't give it to me. I have read many books & heard so many stories of possessive men like you who kill their women out of possessiveness, jealousy & rage. What the hell is wrong with you? (Shouting even louder then before)
Jason: Don't raise you're voice against me.
Ashley: I don't want our baby to see you hurting me. I hate you!
Jason: Wait...what? Baby?
Ashley then took Jason's hand & placed it on her stomach. Jason then gave an unexpected reply to that reaction.
Jason: Is the baby mine or of the man who kissed your hand?
Ashley was stunned, shocked & surprised by Jason's reply. Ashley soon pushed Jason't hands away from her stomach.
Jason: Why aren't you answering me? Who's baby is this?
Ashley: You piece of shit.
Jason then grabbed Ashley by the hip, grabbed her close enough he could kiss her then just kissed her. Ashley slapped Jason. Jason continued to kiss Ashley once more, & again Ashley attempted to hit Jason but Jason caught her hand & Ashley was locked in position & was unable to defend herself from Jason's clutches. Jason kissed Ashley for the last time before he got off the bed then walked out of her room. Mr. Matt was waiting outside the room for Jason.
Mr. Matt: Why are you smiling?
Jason: My beautiful wife is pregnant with a baby.
Mr. Matt: We already know that.
Jason became angry.
Jason: You knew that? For how long?
Mr. Matt: Two days after you were admitted to hospital.
Jason: And you never bothered to tell me?
Mr. Matt: For what? I needed to see the safety of my grandchild & the child's mother first. You are my son, but you have not been acting like one for these couple of months. You haven't even gone to work ever since you got married. Ashley has been taking care of all that while you were away. You are suppose to be her husband, you are to take care of things. Not the other way around. I have my company, family, etc to take care of. You are my son but what have you been doing? Hitting your wife because you are both jealous & possessive of her. Grow up Jason! I have told out butler Charles to get your clothes ready for the office. Considering that it's still morning 11 am, you can make it to work now. It's better you get away for some time.
Jason didn't say anything. He just went into the bathroom took a nice hot shower, got into his clothes which was layed out for him then he wore them & headed straight to the office. From that day Jason had worked in the office for 3 months. Continuously, Jason just worked day & night, ate, slept & the only time Jason came home was to have a bath then immediately he would go back to the office. Jason was too angry with Ashley & his father. He had not spoken to them for 3 months.
Ashley was very upset that Jason was not with her for the important period of her life. Ashley was also worried that Jason was having an affair as she could not longer have sex with him till the baby was born. By now Ashley was 5 months pregnant. Ashley decided that she needed to have a talk with Jason. Ashley missed Jason. Ashley knew that Jason couldn't be changed nor was she willing to change him but she knew that he had to know how she felt about his behavior.
