On her way back to the house, Kellie called Jason.
"How did things go with Charles?" Jason asked, "Did you find out what Helena sent you?"
"A letter and paperwork," Kellie said, "I'll warn you it's a doozy. Let's just say Helena had a few more tricks up her sleeve."
"What happened?" Jason asked.
"The letter Helena sent outlined what we already suspected," Kellie said, "That she paid the doctor off not to tie my tubes. However, she did not authorize the IUD, the doctor did that on her own. When I didn't turn up pregnant, Helena paid my next doctor to remove it with out my knowledge during my female exam. That was around the time Tyler first got sick."
"No real surprises there," Jason said, "Did she say why she did it?"
"To leave that child a portion of her estate while leaving nothing to Jamie, Jared, and Alyssa," Kellie said, "in an attempt to create a Cassadine like feud between my children."
"That obviously failed then since Tyler didn't have another child with you," Jason said,
"Not exactly," Kellie said, "Helena worded her will in such a way that Tyler didn't have to be the father of my next child for him or her to inherit from Helena. Our child is...is Helena's heir."
Jason was momentarily stunned.
"Well we just won't accept the inheritance," Jason said.
"I already asked and Charles doesn't think we can do that," Kellie said, "He's probably right. He has to look through the paperwork more thoroughly to be sure though. He wasn't allowed to look at it until after I read the letter. I'm assuming Helena would have made sure we couldn't do that as it is. She even made arrangements for the inheritance to go to Alyssa if I didn't have another child. Even if there is a loophole, I'm not sure we'd want to touch it with a ten foot pole."
"Helena would set a loophole up as a trap," Jason said, "Do you have the papers and the letter?"
"Charles will drop copies off for us tomorrow," Kellie said, "He's also getting the police a copy of the letter in case it helps with locating the doctors at all."
"How much did Helena set aside for the inheritance?" Jason asked.
"I don't know," Kellie said, "I didn't look. That was the least of my concerns."
"It's okay," Jason said, "We'll figure it out. Where are you now?"
"On my way back to the house," Kellie said, "Charles wanted to take the kids for the night. Since it's just us, I thought I'd order take out for dinner if that works for you."
"That's works," Jason said, "In fact, I'm still in town. I'll pick something up."
"That'd be great," Kellie said.
"Is Molly still coming over?" Jason asked.
"Actually, I thought I'd see if she meet tomorrow instead," Kellie said, "She wants to talk about Kristina. I need a break from all that. Then we can talk…. because I….I owe you an apology. I'm sorry that I asked you not to come with me to meet Charles. I was trying to prove that I could handle everything myself more than anything else. The truth is you had every right to be there considering Helena's manipulations affect you too. I screwed up and I'm sorry. The truth is I wanted you there, instead of going with that, I fell back into old, stupid habits."
"Don't beat yourself up over it," Jason said, "and I appreciate the apology."
Kellie tried to think of a response when another call came in.
"Shoot," Kellie said, "Molly's calling me now."
"We'll continue our discussion when I get home," Jason said, "Let me know if Molly ends up coming over after all. I'll make sure to grab dinner for her as well. I have a couple of errands to run. I should be home in about an hour."
Kellie and Jason's House
Molly agreed to meet Kellie the next day. When Kellie arrived at the house, she took a bath, and then went into the walk-in-closet. She sorted through her clothes until she came to a sexy wine red dress with tags still on it. Kellie looked at the dress she'd intended to wear New Year's Eve but didn't when she'd fallen asleep on the couch before 8 pm after taking the kids sledding during the day. Kellie grabbed the dress and pulled the tags off it, hoping the dress would be forgiving of the changes to her figure.
Kellie changed into the dress, finding that while it hugged her body tightly, the dress was still comfortable. Looking in the mirror, Kellie saw the tightness of the dress left no question to any one looking at her, she was expecting a baby.
"Here's the deal, little one," Kellie said, running her hand along her belly, "Mommy screwed up and has some things to make up to your Daddy. All I'm asking is for all the inconvenient pregnancy symptoms to cease for tonight. That means no nausea, exhaustion, heart burn, light headedness, growing pains. If it's inconvenient and annoying, it's off limits tonight. No hormonal or emotional mood swings either."
"Are you…." Kellie heard Jason say. He trailed off as entered the room, stunned seeing Kellie in the dress. Kellie turned around startled.
"Hi," Kellie said, noticing Jason had one hand behind his back.
"This is a surprise," Jason said, putting his free arm around Kellie and kissing her.
Kellie melted into Jason, her hands playing with his jeans.
Jason nudged Kellie gently towards the bed.
"Wait," Kellie said, breathless, " What's behind your back?"
Kellie tried to keep Jason distracted with one hand while using the other hand to try to grab whatever he was holding behind his back.
"Do you have any idea what the sight of you in that dress does to me?" Jason whispered in her ear.
"You will have to let go of whatever it is you're hiding to continue this anyway," Kellie said, pressing herself tighter against Jason.
Jason groaned and stepped back as he handed Kellie a chocolate milkshake.
"You? Jason Morgan, bought me a chocolate milkshake?" Kellie said, grabbing it and sipping it through the straw.
"I wanted to surprise you," Jason said, "I know you like them."
"Is it too much to hope that there's fries to go with it?" Kellie asked.
"Yes, there are fries," Jason said, "And a burger."
"Yes!" Kellie said, "I assume those are downstairs."
"In the kitchen," Jason said, pulling Kellie back against him, "But that'll have to wait."
Jason grabbed the milkshake and set it on the nightstand and then continued kissing Kellie.
"Jason, I have plans for this dress that don't involve it coming off until later," Kellie said between kisses
"Who says your dress has to come off?" Jason said, pulling Kellie down on the bed with him.
