When Heinz and Gary heard the news, they were both stunned. They didn't think that the blood bank in London would be facing a shortage.
"Were they able to seek alternative sources for blood?" Heinz asked.
"Yes, but it's not that easy. Cindy's blood type is AB, but I'm type B. Most of us have either A or B blood type, so we can't spare her any blood. We have to acquire it from the blood bank," Alex explained.
Gary frowned at that.
At that moment, the emergency room's door opened and a doctor walked out. The doctor spotted them and said, "We still need around 2 bags of blood, but I've contacted all the blood banks around the area, and none of them have type AB. You guys should find someone with AB blood type as soon as possible. We've managed to stop the bleeding, but the patient requires an urgent blood transfusion to be stabilized."
"How much time do we have?" Heinz asked the doctor.
"Not more than an hour. We've already used up around ten bags of blood on the patient, but she is bleeding excessively," The doctor replied solemnly.
Gary frowned and looked at the doctor, asking, "So what you're saying is that the patient will definitely get better once she gets the blood transfusion?"
"I can't guarantee that. Yesterday's operation was a success, but we never thought that she would start bleeding all of a sudden the next day. We'll have to keep a close eye on her 24 hours after this. Once she passes the 48-hour mark with no problems, then her condition should be stabilized," The doctor explained.
Heinz nodded.
Gary exchanged a look with Heinz then turned to leave.
"Hey, where are you going?" Heinz asked him.
Gary did not turn back to answer him and just said, "I'm going to donate some of my blood to this b*tch. She's lucky that I happen to have AB blood type."
When Alex heard that Gary was going to give his blood to that shameless woman, he hurriedly exchanged a look of shock with Heinz.
"President Jones, I'm going to stop Master Gary."
Heinz was stunned. However, realization soon sank in. He shook his head and sighed, "There's no need for that, Alex."
"President Jones, two whole bags of blood is honestly too much!"
Heinz shook his head and could only frown, "Gary knows what he's doing. He'll be fine."
"But why would Master Gary compromise his health like that for such a shameless woman?" Alex couldn't figure it out. He wanted to run after Gary to ask.
"That's because he wants to thank Cindy for raising Celeste. After helping her out this time, he won't owe anything else to her in the future. Gary's just doing what he has to for his beloved. We can't possibly interfere with his decision," Heinz explained calmly.
Alex looked at Heinz, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Heinz let out a bitter smile, "He's my son, after all. Of course I would prefer it if he didn't have to do so, but I have to respect his decision."
Alex nodded, "I understand, but I think I should still accompany him."
"Go ahead then," Heinz nodded.
With that, Alex hurried over to Gary.
Meanwhile, a nurse had already inserted a needle into Gary's arm.
Once Alex walked into the room, Gary just looked up at him calmly.
Alex looked as if he wanted to say something but didn't. He looked worried and anxious.
"Uncle Logan, what's with that expression?" Gary flashed Alex a grin as he looked at Alex's conflicted expression.
"Your dad explained that you're doing this to repay a debt to Cindy for raising Celeste. Is that true? If it isn't, I have no idea what other reason you have to to do something like this for a b*tch like Cindy."
Alex felt indignant.
Gary was startled when he heard this. Surprise flashed across his eyes as he was taken aback, "I didn't think Heinz was this wise."
"It seems that the president was right. You're doing all this for Celeste, aren't you? Gosh, she's so much trouble," Alex sighed.
Gary was stunned when he heard Alex talk about Celeste like that. He glared at the man as a sign of warning.
"Uncle Logan."
Alex looked at him and groaned, "Don't look at me like that! I'm only speaking the truth. You've lost your mind after falling for her. Cindy's life just isn't
worth it."
Gary did not try to further explain his actions.
As long as he thought it was worth it, no one could tell him otherwise.
He had come to the hospital for Celeste, not Cindy.
If it was solely for Cindy's sake, he wouldn't have considered donating his blood at all.
Soon, more blood was drawn from Gary, and the blood bag started to fill up.
