Chapter 82: If You're Sick, Go Get Treated

Chapter 82: If You're Sick, Go Get Treated

After Leo and Maya finished the prenatal checkup, the doctor said everything was normal, just reminding Maya to pay more attention to her diet and rest.

"Thank goodness there was no danger this time."

Leo was still a bit shaken. Maya used to seem like such a quiet person, but he never expected her to be so fierce when she got physical.

"Leo, I'm sorry. It's just because you're too outstanding. I'm afraid other women will steal you away. I want our child to have a complete family."

Maya played the vulnerable card at just the right moment. In front of others, she always put on this fragile and innocent act. Only in bed did she become passionate, and he happened to love this contrast the most. This was how Maya kept him wrapped around her finger.

"I'm not really blaming you. I just don't want the child to be in danger. If you want to successfully marry into the Russell family, you need to make sure this baby is born safe and sound."

Maya knew that Robert looked down on her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken such a desperate risk.

Maya walked over and grabbed his hand. Before she could say more, she was suddenly pushed aside.

"Donna!"

Leo suddenly called out. Maya quickly turned around and immediately spotted Donna, who stood out in the crowd.

Maya secretly clenched her fists. Donna was as dazzling as a bright pearl. No wonder she could attract Leo's attention.

Just as Leo was about to walk over without thinking, Maya quickly grabbed his hand.

"Leo, you should call her Aunt Donna in public. Otherwise, if Mr. Russell finds out, he'll scold you again."

This was the only way Maya could remind him right now. The amazement in his eyes just now was impossible to hide, and it immediately made Maya feel threatened.

Hearing this voice just gave Donna a headache. She never expected to run into these two at the hospital.

Donna had planned to just pretend she didn't hear and leave, but Leo actually shook off Maya's hand and walked toward her.

Maya didn't have time to get angry about being shaken off. She quickly followed, wanting to hear what Donna and Leo would say to each other.

"Donna, why are you suddenly at the hospital? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

Leo acted very familiar with Donna, immediately showing concern for her health, which really caught Donna off guard.

"How my body is doing doesn't seem to be your concern. The person you should be concerned about is the one beside you."

Maya's eyes were practically killing her, but Leo acted like nothing was wrong. Donna sometimes really admired his nerve.

Before Maya could speak, Leo suddenly turned around.

"Go wait for me in the car. I have something to say to her here."

Leo unconsciously raised his voice, and there was a threatening look in his eyes. Maya couldn't go against him at this moment, so she could only glare angrily at Donna before leaving.

Donna shook her head. Maya was completely dependent on Leo now. She remembered when Maya and Leo used to act like a normal couple. Now it seemed Maya was becoming more and more eager to please Leo. Well, that made sense - she had taken most of the Jackson Group's money. The only reason the Jackson Group hadn't collapsed yet was because of the Russell family's intervention.

But then again, what did any of this have to do with her?

"If you have something to say, say it quickly. I don't have time to chat with you here."

Donna knew she couldn't leave right away, so she just found a chair and sat down to hear what he had to say.

Seeing that Donna didn't leave, Leo thought she still couldn't let him go. He just held her back a little, and Donna was so obedient. Sure enough, Donna still liked him.

When Leo sat down beside her, she quietly moved one seat over, but Leo just thought she was avoiding suspicion.

"Donna, I've never really let you go in my heart. If it weren't for Uncle Edward's power, I would never have let you go. So what's standing between us now is Uncle Edward. Can you help me now? Help me get information from Uncle Edward. Once my dad completely takes control of the Russell Group, we can be together again."

Donna was speechless. Was Leo out of his mind?

How could he say such stupid things?

And what made him feel so good about himself? Edward was not only better looking than him, but better than him in every single skill. How did he have the nerve to say such things? Even if Donna were blind, she would choose Edward just by touch.

"You don't need to answer me right away. I know you have your difficulties, and I know how you feel. I was too young back then. Actually, I've regretted it for a long time. For us to get back together, I hope we can both work together."

Donna raised her hand to interrupt Leo.

"This is a hospital. If there's something wrong with your brain, I can go with you to register for psychiatry."

Leo laughed foolishly after hearing this.

"I knew you cared about me."

Donna rolled her eyes, got up to leave. Leo quickly stood up and continued whispering in her ear.

"Donna, I've never changed my phone number. If you have any information, you can call me anytime."

"Leo, Maya is carrying your child. How can you say those things?"

Donna really didn't understand.

Leo seemed to remember only Maya's child at this moment.

"It's just a child. Maya is your half-sister anyway. Don't worry, I'll only take the child. I won't marry her. If you really mind, I can stop seeing her."

Robert had told him to keep Donna on the hook first. Besides, promises were the most unreliable things. Once he took away Edward's power, he wouldn't bother with Donna, the woman who had embarrassed him.

"Seriously, if you're sick, go get treatment."

Leo was really too blindly confident.

Only after watching Donna leave did Leo return to his car.

As soon as he got in, Maya couldn't help complaining.

"Leo, are you abandoning me?"

Leo was in a very good mood right now. He held Maya in his arms, sweet words flowing easily.

"The one I love most in my heart is you. Your looks are something Donna could never compare to. But for our plan, I have to ask you to bear with it for now. I'm just putting on an act with her. Once she helps me steal business secrets from Edward's study, I'll dump her."
