Wendy refused to hide, yanking away the covers to reveal her weak legs. "Before I go, I want one last walk in the sun. But look at me, frail and unable to move..." She paused, guilt flickering across her face as she glanced at Eleanor. "Your mom once mentioned that both you and Emilia share my blood type, AB. She asked for a loan and promised to repay the favor with blood if I ever needed it..."
Her remorseful and desperate gaze pleaded with Eleanor. "I'm sorry for not helping your mom back then. But I was wondering if you could donate some blood for me—just 400cc—to get me on my feet..."
Though her words sounded sincere, there were fishy elements in her request. Firstly, neither she nor Emilia had AB blood type; they both had the common O type. Wendy might be searching for them because their mom had lied about their blood type to secure the loan. Secondly, 400cc of blood wouldn't be enough to restore Wendy's strength. She likely wanted the blood for testing purposes, with uncertain intentions afterward.
Before Eleanor could respond, a cold voice cut in. "My wife's blood is not available for lending."
Bernard's blunt refusal left Wendy looking taken aback.
She turned to Eleanor, "Kid, I just need a little blood. It won't hurt you…"
After some thought, Eleanor glanced at Robin and made a condition, "If you tell me how you ended up marrying York Spencer, I'll let you take a small tube of blood. If you lie, sorry, no blood donation."
Just yesterday, Bernard told her that Robin had no idea about his parents' past and thought Vanya was the homewrecker. She had to clear her mother's name in front of Robin.
Moreover, the fact that Wendy wanted her blood for testing indicated that she might need an organ from Eleanor, or more specifically, from Emilia. But since Emilia was dead, she came looking for Eleanor. But before needing an organ, Wendy needed to confirm if Eleanor's blood matched, hence the blood test.
