Given his status, why on earth would he serve Joanna so humbly and respectfully?

Annie Lawrence always thought that Ashton Heath and Joanna's marriage wouldn't last long.
Ashton was probably just infatuated with Joanna for a while.
So she had been waiting for news of their marital discord, waiting for Ashton to divorce Joanna.
But she had been waiting for so long, it seemed that her waiting had been in vain.
Not only had Joanna and Ashton not divorced as she had wished, but their relationship seemed to be getting better and better.
