Hearing Lucas's words make all Fernando's words choked in his throat. He then immediately grabbed his cell phone from his shirt pocket.
Fernando quickly contacted Doctor William, his personal doctor, who he now appointed as Viona's personal doctor. Even though Viona was a doctor, she still needed another doctor to maintain her health, especially when she was pregnant.
"Where are you, Will?!! Pick it up, quick, you jerk!!" Fernando said to himself when he tried to contact Doctor William for the second time, but still he couldn't get through. "Hello ... Will, what should I do now?" Fernando shouted when his phone was connected to Doctor William.
"Can't you speak quietly?" asked Doctor William curtly.
"Ah I have no time to talk softly and pleasantly with you right now, just answer my question earlier, Will!!! What should I do now?" Asked Fernando back in a higher voice.
"You sound crazy, Fernando. How can I answer your question if I do not understand the point of your conversation!!" Said William, irritated.
Fernando laughed broadly at what Doctor William said. He then explained what had happened to him this morning. In his practice room, Doctor William laughed heartily at Fernando's story.
Even though he knew that Viona would experience this, but seeing the greater effect of what she had done made Doctor William couldn't stop laughing.
"Are you satisfied with your laugh, Will?" Fernando asked irritably.
"It seems that I must come to the hospital where your wife works, I have to give her ten thumbs up for making you like this, hahaha ..." Doctor William joked.
"You're a jerk, Will, you're so happy to see me suffer like this," Fernando replied, clenching his fist.
"This is nothing, Fernando. Later on, when her gestational age increases, you'll see her absurd behavior will increase even more and that's when your level of patience is tested," said Doctor William at length.
"Isn't this what you expect. to have children from him," William added, reminded Fernando.
Fernando was silent to hear the words of his best friend. He couldn't only listen to all the advice from Dr. William. After talking on the phone for nearly forty-five minutes, Fernando finally hung up the call. He then walked over to the dining table to where Lucas was.
"Keep all these snacks in the car. We'll never know what would happen if Viona didn't see them in the car," Fernando said quietly.
"Yes, Sir, I understand," Lucas replied, while tidying up the snacks that he had placed on the table.
"So, let's go to the office," Fernando told Lucas. Lucas nodded his head slowly in response to Fernando's words.
He then ran to the car with the bag he had previously taken out of the car. Fernando only smiled faintly seeing his subordinate being bothered by Viona. All the way to the office, Fernando was silent. But, not long after, he suddenly smiled at the grocery bag beside Lucas. He then took one of the chocolates in it and started eating it slowly.
"So, it's nice to eat chocolate like this," Fernando murmured softly.
From the rearview mirror, Lucas could clearly see Fernando enjoying the chocolate that Viona had bought. Because he didn't want to interfere with his master snack time, Lucas just kept quiet.
He increased the speed of the vehicle, so they could get to the office quickly because Fernando had several important meetings with his new client for his big project.

<GLOBAL BROSS HOSPITAL>
The doctors at the Global Bross Hospital had just finished their annual meeting. The specialists seemed to be reading the results of their work over the past year. They got the assessment from various aspects, especially the level of satisfaction of each patient.
Viona smiled when she saw her annual report which almost got a perfect score in all criteria. She did not think that her patients really appreciated the service she provided.
"Wow ... you got a perfect score, Doctor," said Nurse Tina, who suddenly stood behind Viona.
"Hey, Tina, since when were you here?" Viona shrieked while hugging her former assistant tightly.
"Of course I've been here since earlier, now I'm with Doctor Lila, so wherever Doctor Lila is, there I'll be," Nurse Tina replied with a smile.
"How annoying, you two must have spent a lot of fun time together," Viona said, pretending to be angry.
Nurse Tina laughed at Viona's words. She then hugged Viona tightly again, but not too long after that, she released her hug from Viona.
"Are you alright, Doctor?" Asked Nurse Tina, touching Viona's face, which looked thinner.
"Yes, I just wanted to ask questions like that, too," Doctor Lila replied in response to what her assistant Tina had said.
"No ... I'm fine!! Just look, I'm still healthy, right?" Viona answered with a smile.
"But you look thinner than the last time I saw you, Doctor," Nurse Tina said as she continued to look at Viona's face, which looked even paler.
"Maybe it's because my work is a bit too much lately. But don't worry, I'm fine, Tina. Alright then, let's go to the cafeteria. I'm hungry. After all, we haven't had lunch together for a long time, right, Doctor Lila?" Viona replied.
Doctor Lila smiled in response to Viona's words. She finally agreed to Viona's invitation to go to lunch together at the cafeteria. Nurse Tina seemed very happy when Doctor Lila agreed to Viona's invitation. They then walked together to the employee cafeteria on the second floor.
From behind the wall, Professor Frank heard all the conversations between Viona and Nurse Tina. His face became even more sinister than when he was angry. His eyes suddenly showed great anger. He then walked out of the meeting room to his private office without saying a word.
While walking towards the cafeteria, some of the nurses who knew Viona seemed to be whispering. They then walked quickly to where Nurse Chloe was.
"Why are you still here, Chloe?" Asked Nurse Gina to Nurse Chloe, who was still busy at her desk.
"I still have some work to do before lunch ends," answered Nurse Chloe, without taking her eyes off the computer.
"Hey, you're still working here while Nurse Tina is eating together with your doctor," Nurse Lucia said in response to Nurse Gina's words infuriated Nurse Chloe.
"Nurse Tina ..."
"Yes, Nurse Tina ... this former personal assistant to Doctor Viona whose place you are replacing,". Nurse Lucia interrupted Nurse Chloe's words.
Nurse Chloe was silent to hear what Nurse Lucia said. She then remembered Fernando's last words when she got her permanent employee status.
Fernando had asked Nurse Chloe to remain loyal to Viona no matter what. Because if she betrayed Viona, then her whole family would receive a payback from Fernando. Remembering that, Nurse Chloe shivered with horror. She knew what kind of man Fernando Gray Willan is.
"I don't mind. Anyone can have lunch with Doctor Viona, we all know who Doctor Viona is, right? Then why do you have to bother with that?" Asked Nurse Chloe as she glared at Nurse Lucia who had been provoking her.
Nurse Lucia was silent when she heard Sister Chloe's words. She didn't expect that the nurse who looked stupid could speak such sarcasm to her. Without saying much, Nurse Lucia then left alone, leaving Nurse Chloe with Nurse Gina and Nurse Britney.
After Nurse Lucia left, Nurse Gina and Nurse Britney finally left Nurse Chloe's worktable. They both felt sorry for having joined Nurse Chloe.
"You have to choose the right person right now, Nurses, because you don't know how terrible Doctor Viona's husband is," said Nurse Chloe, smiling thinly seeing Nurse Gina and Nurse Britney left. Nurse Chloe continued her work, because she didn't want to make Doctor Viona disappointed. She was willing to postpone her lunch longer so that her work was done quickly.
In his office, Professor Frank was angry and destroyed some of the items on his desk. He could already guess that Viona was currently pregnant. Even though Viona had not said anything about that, but seeing her physical characteristics, he could already guess that Viona was pregnant.
Professor Frank was angry and hated his older brother who had made the woman he loved pregnant. Professor Frank, who had been thinking of ways to separate Fernando from Viona, was increasingly upset over Viona's pregnancy.
"That child won't be born as long as I'm alive. Just watch what I'll do, Fernando!!!" Professor Frank said softly with his red eyes.
To be continued.
