When The Store Director Helped The Poor Girl Pick Up Her Change, He Saw A Bracelet On Her Wrist…
The DNA Test Plan
After the cheating-related scandal, he fell out with his family and moved to Boston. Moreover, John broke off ties with his mother and brother, and the word is he started a brand new life. In turn, Benjamin couldn’t confidently say whether the incident with Suzanne and his brother could be considered cheating.
The couple wasn’t married at the time and could do whatever they wanted with their lives. “DNA test. How did I not think of that before? I need to get something that belongs to Brittany and run the test,” Benjamin whispered, confident in his own right.
However, deep down the successful businessman was already confident that the test result would confirm Brittany to be his daughter. This was explained by the fact that Benjamin saw painfully similar facial features and personality traits in Brittany from the minute he met her.
In order to quietly take something from Brittany’s personal belongings, the director came up with the clever scheme which, if successful, would get rid of any doubts. That is why Benjamin started helping Brittany with groceries, and a week after they first met, he offered the girl a managerial position at a store.
“I don’t even know how to thank you,” Brittany said, looking down embarrassed.
Meanwhile, having turned her back to Benjamin, the girl didn’t see how her guest stealthily took her hairbrush and hid it in his shirt. “I don’t need anything from you, Brittany. It’s just that you remind me of someone who I was once very close with. This is why I’d like to help you,” said Benjamin, pressing the coveted trophy to his chest.
The Truth Revealed
He had to wait for the results for about two weeks. By the time Benjamin Dawson finally received the envelope with the medical institution’s stamp, he was 100 sure that he could predict the result. Imagine the businessman’s surprise when he saw that the official conclusion stated that Brittany wasn’t his daughter after all.
“How could this be? Why? But I could feel that Brittany is my daughter,” whispered Benjamin, clutching the odious letter. The businessman needed no less than two days before he could come to terms with and digest the obtained information. It was then that Benjamin decided to tell Brittany everything.
Naturally, the girl’s initial reaction was shock. Benjamin didn’t know how to handle the worry that came over him and carefully hugged the shaking girl around her shoulders. “Even though you’re not my real daughter, I’d like to consider you as one. From now on, you can call me father and use all the privileges that this right gives you,” whispered Benjamin with tears in his eyes.
The businessman’s haggard face read that such a fateful decision was very hard for him to make. But on the other hand, Benjamin was very exhausted from loneliness, and he always wanted to have a person in his life whom would hand him a glass of water when he was old.
Even though Brittany was not his daughter, he understood that her mother was the woman whom he once loved so much. Of course, many of those who knew Benjamin were judgmental of such a reckless decision and thought that he made a mistake by calling Brittany his daughter.
Uncovering the Past
Meanwhile, Benjamin Dawson still couldn’t let go of the feeling that he had missed some very important detail, mulling over it every day. The man found himself thinking that he liked the idea of considering Brittany his heiress. The girl had also completely transformed, having become a confident and successful woman who made men’s heads turn.
One time, looking at family photos with this adopted daughter, Benjamin came across an old photo of his brother John. It was dated to be 20 years old and involuntarily reminded the businessman of the fact that Brittany’s late mother dated both brothers at once,.
Benjamin couldn’t really judge her because at the time he himself was a rash and reckless young man. “Maybe I should go and see John after all. The last time we saw each other we were still at university,” thought Benjamin, still clutching the photo of his brother who was only three years younger than him.
This thought seemed very promising to the businessman. This was because he couldn’t remember when he said two words to John, even over the phone. Having made such an important decision for himself, Benjamin headed to Boston the next morning.
The businessman quickly found the house he was looking for. It looked dilapidated and extremely miserable from the outside. “My brother couldn’t possibly be living in this wreck, could he?” thought Benjamin with doubt in his voice.
A Tragic Discovery
But when the businessman came up to the door and knocked, he almost immediately heard someone’s shuffling footsteps. To Benjamin’s surprise, a tearful woman in black mourning clothes appeared on the doorstep. “Hello. How can I help you, sir?” asked the lady of the house.
Benjamin was confused for a moment and then timidly said, “I’m looking for John Dawson. The thing is, I’m his brother.” After hearing the businessman’s words, the woman in the black dress covered her eyes with their hands and burst into tears.
As it turned out, John Dawson had died of leukemia half a year before. Even so, on his deathbed, more than anything in the world, the man wanted to ask his elder brother for forgiveness as he was guilty before him. Unfortunately, John Dawson hadn’t managed to do this and died three days before his birthday.
Having found out about this, Benjamin leaned against the door and wept quietly. Of course, he didn’t blame his brother, and deep down he knew that he had forgiven him long ago. Having gotten himself together, Benjamin asked the late John’s wife for something from his personal belongings.
Then the businessman visited the brother’s grave and went to the medical center to settle the question that had been bothering him once and for all. And once again, the days dragged on. They were filled with anxiety and anticipation of the test results,.
Meanwhile, in conversation with his adopted daughter, the businessman didn’t say a word about his trip to Boston. But when Benjamin finally got the DNA test results, the doctor’s verdict was univocal. Thus, with 99.9 probability, John Dawson was the father of Brittany Wallace.
Re-reading the text over and over again with tears in his eyes, Benjamin was more and more convinced that his hunch was correct and Brittany was indeed his family. Wherein, the businessman swore to himself that he will never leave his late brother’s family and will do everything possible to make them happy.
