Chapter 35
Jason's P.O.V
Jessica had told me to sleep in the guest room last night. I had a great sleep. As soon as my phone alarmed for 7am I got up and got ready for a run. I know I just got there but, I jogged every single morning. I met some ladies on my way. They were not really to die for. When I got back from jogging an hour later; Jessica and the kids were up. I met Jessica as soon as I stepped in the house. She was on her way to work. She told me that I was in charge of the kids packing and watching them for the day. She didn't tell me what time she was coming back though. But we had a flight at 6 to catch. Ok. " Daddyyy!", Jase shouted running towards me happily. That literally just made my morning.

Jessica's P.O.V
As soon as I reached worked I had put on my darker's. I didn't want anyone to say anything to me. When I stepped into the building I stopped looking at the new receptionist that I called this morning. She smiled looking at me. I didn't return a smile but, instead I passed her going into the elevator. I had to wear the glasses to cover up the bruises I got from being pushed into that glass table yesterday. I had to get everything done today because I was leaving to go to New York today. I spoke to all the persons I was suppose to have a meeting with yesterday and rescheduled. I can't miss these meetings again. I have to be back in Canada by next week. I was on  a phone call with the marketing manager of R and R company; a very important client when Layla popped up in my office. She was sitting down in front of  my desk waiting for me to come off the call. " Thank you. Looking forward to it sir", I said hanging up the phone. I still had on the glasses. I looked at Layla now speaking. " Don' t ask", I said. " Take off your glasses Jessica. I want to see what that bastard did to you", she said grabbing the glasses off my face. She gasped covering her mouth. " Do you want me to get rid of him. Just say the word", Layla said frightened at the scars on my face. I looked around the office and saw that the place was cleaned up by one of the janitors. " No, its ok Layla. I' m fine. Jason and I spoke last night.", I said. " It can' t be over the phone I know that for sure. So why did you let him sleep at your house after what he did to you?", Layla asked curiously. " Ah... Because, he wanted to see the kids and after that we had a long talk about everything and he apologized. He' s changed for the worst I can tell you that for sure. Layla I expected this guy to show up , but not like this. He totally surprised me. Despite the fact that he did hurt me; you were right. The day was going to come when I had to face him and I did. And look what he did. He was so out of hand I tell you. ", I said finally. " Oh I can see that. Besides the fact that he's my God children's father; I hate him already. No man should ever have to put their hands on another woman Jess.", she said sounding upset. " I agree but, it is what it is. And I don' t think I will be able to forgive him for doing such a thing to me. He' s the father of my children and that means I' m going to have to interact with him often because, Jase and Jessy are too young. ", I said putting back on the glasses. " Right. Was he always like that?", Layla asked.." Nope, but people change don' t they?", I asked getting up and gathering some files. " Yes they do.", Layla replied.
