Chapter 910
Wendy refused to hide, yanking away the covers to reveal her weak legs. Before I go, I want one last walk in the sun Blut look at me, frail and unable to move.” She paused, guilt nickering 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
F
Her remorseful and desperate gaze pleaded with Eleanor. “Im 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 0 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 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.
What Eleanor didn’t expect was that Wendy didn’t know Vanya wasn’t a real Pine. Elbert had once said that he overheard his grandparents‘ conversation when he was young It was quite understandable that Wendy, who was only a year older than Vanya, didn’t know the secret.
Eleanor figured that giving Wendy a blood sample and letting her figure out that she wasn’t a real Pine might be more convincing than showing Blake the test results herself This could also get rid of Wendy’s intention to get her organs and change Robin’s opinion about her.
As soon as Eleanor made the offer, Bernard understood her intentions. But he didn’t want Eleanor to get hurt, not even if it was just a blood draw.
Eleanor, however, squeezed his hand and brushed his palm lightly with her fingertips, telling him not to worry
Wendy didn’t notice their small gesture. She was completely absorbed in Eleanor’s proposal.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Loved the story, many times caught in so much actually crying with the situation. Wish had more chapters to a better ending....
It's weird that the story went from narrative to slang use. Good story so far though...
