Chapter 441 - Miss Out

Two bodyguards were standing at the door of Donna's ward as usual. Jackson was also there. He was in his fifties, and he took good care of himself. But he had probably stayed up late for the past two days, he seemed very haggard with dark eye circles.

Seeing Emily, his face darkened. But he didn't say anything, and just turned around and let Emily in.

"I know why you did this," Emily turned to look at him before entering, "But I will expose your disguise, and you will get nothing." After a pause, she slowly added, "Just like me."

Jackson lowered his voice, "She can't take it. She's your birth mother!"

"Thank you for your reminder." After Emily finished, she opened the door and walked in.

Jackson stood at the door. A moment later, he gasped heavily and walked out of the corridor. Not long later, he walked over worriedly. However, he did not dare to go in. Donna said that she did not want to see him. The doctor said she couldn't be traumatized. But he recalled what Emily said, "You will get nothing, just like me."

It was winter when Jackson met Donna. His car stalled halfway and there was no one around. He drove back from the cemetery alone without anyone with him. He made a phone call and the guards would arrive at least one hour later.

He stood at the intersection and waited. When he was about to freeze, he met Donna. She handed him a hand warmer and gave him a cup of warm water.

But she hadn't spoken to him from the beginning. Just when he thought she was mute, a car drove over. Jackson didn't move. Donna glanced at him and asked, "Why didn't you wave to stop the car?"

"You can speak?" Jackson looked at her.

Donna waved her hand, but the car didn't stop. She turned to look at Jackson and said, "I don't think you're in a hurry. So, you wait here. I'm leaving."

She took back her thermos cup but did not take back her hand warmer. She slowly walked along the path by herself. When Jackson's bodyguard drove over, there was only a car and no one on the road.

Jackson followed Donna for a long time before she turned around and asked, "Why are you following me?"

"I'd like to say thank you, thank you for the water, and this..." Jackson did not recognize this item, but he did not let go of it.

"I'll give it to you." Donna turned around and left.

Every year on his wife's birthday and New Year's Day, Jackson would come to the cemetery to give some food and gadgets. His wife liked small things very much when she was alive. She liked things he gave to her regardless of their values. In that year, he went to the cemetery six times and met Donna at the sixth time.

He had driven many times on this road, stayed alone in the cemetery, drove alone, enjoyed the wind alone, and waited alone.

This was the first time he had met someone who seemed the same as him. He didn't know if her husband had died or what, he knew she lived alone.

He had visited her house, which was a ranch-house. It was clean, but cold, far from the city, and so quiet that it was almost desolate.

Donna did not feel lonely or isolated. She had something to do every day. At first, Jackson only passed by and talked to her for a few words. Later on, he would bring food and some furniture to her home. Later on, on a rainy night, he stayed there, but Donna did not let him get close.

He still remembered her desolate smile on that rainy night. "Whether you're married or not, don't come near me. My heart has long died."

She's a very stubborn person, living alone, working alone, as if to punish herself. She did not want to make friends with others, nor did she want to listen to Jackson's suggestion to live in the city. She willingly received those meager wages and occasionally went to the temple to ask for a talisman. Jackson came with her there, only to see that she was constantly praying for safety and health. However, he did not know who it was for. It might be her child, but he had never heard of it.

It wasn't until she was taken to the hospital that he realized that she had been suffering from depression for a very long time. In the worst cases, she had a slight tendency to masochism, and would even unconsciously enter the kitchen and take a knife in her hand, not knowing what to do.

During that time, Jackson accompanied her every day. He took her to see a doctor and took her on a trip to relax. She was unhappy but she was unwilling to tell. In the past many years, Jackson had rarely heard her mention her past. He was not a curious person. He just wanted to know what had happened to her in the past that made her depressed.

As usual, Donna went to the temple to ask for the Safety and Health Talisman. When she hung up it on the Wishing Trees, she stared at a talisman. Suddenly, tears flowed down her face. Jackson followed her gaze.

He finally saw her past-Maury.

Maury was praying for a talisman for his little daughter. He hoped that she would be happy and that she would grow up as healthy as the other children.

Jackson did not know what happened to Maury that day, but he knew that Donna had almost died that night. He looked for all the rooms and didn't find her. In the end, he saw Donna stepping on the rooftop.

When the bodyguard saved her, Donna shook her head helplessly. "Don't save me, let me die..."

"What did Maury do to you?" Jackson asked angrily.

Donna shook her head but did not say anything.

But Jackson had other ways to find out. And he found out about her past with Maury.

Her life was a lie. And it broke down on that rainy night.

Why would this deceived woman suffer such pain? Why did Maury live happily with his original wife and children?

Jackson was furious. The moment Donna was sedated by the doctor, he made a plan. It was a plan to ruin the Britt family and kill Maury.

It turned out that he did it.

Before that, Donna decided to live with him and even took him to see the place where she used to live. That place had been bought by someone else. He bought it back again just to make her happy.

His plan was well underway.

Beverly and her daughter regarded their wealth as their lives. They all betrayed the Britt Group. Elsie even stole the Acquisition Contract and official seal. He thought that he would have to wait a bit longer, but everything went on very smoothly. Eliot fell down in Town South before he could make a move.

Jackson was very conceited because he felt that Maury was not smart enough to guess that he was behind this. He was even willing to tell Maury the truth before he died. However, Maury did not give him the chance.

There was no need to conceal anymore. He had a subsidiary of the Heytons take over the Britt Group, wanting to tell everyone in the City Y that this was his masterpiece. Because Maury had picked the wrong guy.

But he missed out on one person.

The little retard of the Britt family.. Maybe she was not stupid at all.
