Krystal noticed the change in Wendy's expression and hurriedly asked, “Madam Wendy, do you know him?
Wendy's gaze shifted between Krystal's and Ethan's faces. "What's your relationship with him?"
"I'm his fiancee. Please, save him! He means the world to me. I can't imagine life without him. If you need blood,
take mine! We have the same blood type," Krystal responded before Brent or the others could speak up.
Brent and the others frowned. They thought it was inappropriate for her to answer so arbitrarily. But
Ethan's life was on the line at the moment, so now wasn't the time to address such issues.
"Do you love him a lot?" Wendy asked.
Joel couldn't help but feel like something was off with Wendy's expression.
"Yes, I've loved him for many years. I'll save him even if it costs me my life!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"What a pair of star-crossed lovers." Wendy almost clapped her hands.
"It's just a shame that I can't save him. You'll have to seek help elsewhere."
Then, she waved her hand and asked them to leave.
Willow stood at the side and gazed at Ethan's face for a moment before reaching out and tugging on
Wendy's clothes. It seemed as if she was pleading for her help.
Wendy gently held the girl's hand and said, "Willow, we can't save this person. Let's send them away."
Ethan seemed to have sensed something and struggled to open his eyes to look in their direction.
However, his vision had been impaired by the virus.
He could only see a hazy image of an elderly lady holding Willow, who was looking back at him. But he couldn't see
the child's face.
Joel chased after them because he felt that Wendy's attitude had changed too drastically.
"I'm begging you, Aunt Wendy. Please save him!"
"It's not that I don't want to help you, Joel. But you're also a medical student. You should know how deadly Ninefold
Venom is. Besides, what else can I do when he's already in such bad shape?"
"Aunt Wendy, there must be a way. There's still a day left. Please, at least give it a shot."
“Give it a shot? Why would I do that? What am I to do if he dies during my treatment? Enough is enough.
Our village does not welcome outsiders. Stop wasting your time and leave at once."
Wendy then slammed the door shut on Joel. His nose would have been hit if he hadn't dodged in time.
He wasn't imagining things; Wendy was genuinely upset!
But what had gone wrong? Wendy had initially agreed to help. Joel was perplexed by her abrupt shift in attitude.
He returned to the room dejectedly.
"Mr. Tucker, what'd she say?" Brent hurriedly asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Aunt Wendy refuses to help."
"Why? Didn't she say she'd give it a shot? Why did she leave without doing anything?"
"I'm not sure as well."
"I'll go and plead with her."
Krystal then rushed outside and knelt at Wendy's doorstep.
"Madam Wendy, I'm begging you, please save my fiance! I love him. We went through so much to be together. I
can't lose him. If you don't save him, I'll kneel here and-"
The door swung open.
Krystal looked at Wendy expectantly. She thought Wendy had been moved by her sincerity.
However, Wendy picked up a bucket of water and poured it all over Krystal without hesitation.
"Stop yapping. How dare you guilt-trip me? I don't care if you want to kneel or even hang yourself. Just don't do it
here!"
