Robert Donaldson asked his wife to do two things before going on a trip to China.
The first thing was to take care of their dog and the second was to buy a lottery ticket.
He even told his wife his own choice of numbers.
He’d call his wife to know if there was anything new happened but Sandra would always say, ‘No’.
Little did he know, Sandra was not telling the truth and was hiding a big secret.
When he came back, Sandra told him that she had one good news and one bad news.
He asked to give him the good news first.
Sandra told him that they could buy the SUV they’d been wanting a little sooner.
When asked about the bad news, Sandra told him that she couldn’t do the two things he asked her to do.
She told him she didn’t buy the lottery ticket with his own choice of numbers instead she bought the lottery ticket using the Quick Pick option.
However, the ticket that Sandra bought made them win $23.3 million. Donaldson was left stunned.
Donaldson said in a statement released by the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG): “I guess I can forgive her for not cleaning up after the dog.”
“I think over time it will start to sink in, but it’s a life-changing event.”
Sandra explained why she didn’t tell him over the phone and waited for him to come back. She said:
“He wouldn’t [have believed] me. He was travelling all over the place. There was no way I was going to tell somebody over the phone.”
Donaldson cried like a baby when he found out. The couple plans to spend the money on Bob’s SUV, gifts to family, and a walk-in closet.
