Chapter 220 - I Don't Need Your Wealth And Power

After winning the heart of his wife, Fernando then invited Viona to go out to lunch as he hadn't had lunch, while it was already very late. Fernando even got scolded by Viona for not eating on time. Hearing her chatter made Fernando silent. He didn't want to make her even angrier if he responded her. 

"Next time, don't repeat this again. Ulcer is not a disease that can be taken lightly!!" Viona said curtly, ending her chatter. 

"Yes, Doctor, sorry, I will not repeat it again," Fernando replied, raising two fingers to swear. 

"Okay, I'll keep your promise!!" Viona answered quickly. 

Luke, who was driving the car, could only remain silent and focus on driving his car when he heard Fernando was being scolded by Viona. He did not want to be the next target of his madam's anger. 

"Madame and Master, we have arrived at the restaurant," Lukas said slowly, braving himself to open the conversation when he arrived in front of the destined restaurant. 

"Thanks, Lukas," Viona replied quickly, as she tried to open the door next to her. 

"Wait, Babe, let the bodyguard secure the situation first!!" Fernando shrieked, while holding her hand so she didn't get out of the car before the bodyguards confirmed the condition was safe. 

After waiting for about two minutes, the bodyguards allowed Viona and Fernando to get off. Fernando got out of the car first and opened the door for Viona. The two of them walked hand in hand into the restaurant.

The restaurant employees seemed very enthusiastic about their presence, because there were rumors about Fernando, who would participate in the parliamentary elections for the next term, even though Viona, as his wife, didn't even know anything about the rumors that have been circulating. 

"I really admire you, Mr. Willan. May I take a picture with you?" Asked a waitress excitedly after putting the food on Fernando's table. 

"Have you asked for my wife's permission first?" Fernando replied, teasing the waitress while glancing at Viona, who was enjoying her delicious mango juice. 

"Ah, yes, sorry, Madam. I didn't mean to ..." 

"Never mind my husband's words, don't you listen to him. Of course, you can take a photo with him, please miss," said Viona, quickly interrupted the waitress' words. 

"Thank you, Madame, you are very kind." The waitress said happily. 

Fernando just smiled at the waitress' expression. He then patiently followed the waitress' request for a photo. When the other waitresses saw Fernando was taking a photo with her, they also ran towards Fernando.

They apparently wanted to take pictures together. As a result, Fernando finally took a photo with all the waitresses in the restaurant alone, because Viona refused to have her photo taken while at the restaurant.

She didn't want her photo spread on social networks while eating in a fancy restaurant. Because for Viona, to be in such a place, there was no need to show off, especially in a digital era today. She didn't want to show off her glamorous life to people. 

The contents of Viona's social media only consisted of a few photos of koi fish and trees that she took when she lived in England, even though as Fernando Gray Willan's wife, she could do what she wanted, but she did not do that, because it was of no use to her.

She didn't want to make people do what she did if she showed off all her luxurious life, thus making them commit crimes in order to exist and show off a luxurious life on social media.

After standing for almost ten minutes, Fernando was finally free from the crowd of waitresses asking him for a photo. He then walked back to where Viona was sitting with a smile. 

"Are you done?" Viona asked silently. 

"It's so tiring with the girls," Fernando replied quietly as he sat next to Viona. 

"Really? Is it true that Fernando is not tempted by other women?" Viona asked, teasing Fernando. 

Hearing Viona's question made Fernando stop drinking. He quickly put the glass on the table and immediately turned to Viona. 

"In my heart, there is no room for another woman, Honey," Fernando said seriously while holding her hand tightly. 

"Do you want me to prove it now?" Asked Fernando again. 

"What proof?" Viona asked back in confusion. 

"I'm going out of the restaurant and scream in the street," Fernando replied slowly as he glanced at the road, which was now quite crowded with people walking because it was time to go home from work. 

"Don't mess around!" Viona replied quickly. 

"I'm not doing anything, Honey, I just want to prove what I said earlier," said Fernando with fiery eyes. 

"Awwww…" Fernando screamed when he felt Viona's hand landed on his ear. 

Viona finally let go of his ear because she felt sorry when she saw Fernando's ear flushed red. 

"It hurts, Babe," he said softly in a pathetic tone. 

"Let it be, because you're annoying," she replied briefly. 

"I just want you to know that the one in my heart and soul is only you, there's no other woman," Fernando replied quickly. 

"I'm just kidding you," Viona swept his hand from her face, so that Fernando was silent when he saw her had managed to escape from him. Because Viona was still hungry, she then continued her meal, as well as Fernando.

They occasionally joked while filling each other's plate with the food that was served on the table, until finally Viona gave up, because Fernando constantly forced her to eat. While she had taken him to a restaurant to make sure that he ate, but instead it was her who was forced to eat a lot by Fernando.

Because the restaurant where they dined was a luxury restaurant, it was only natural that no one could eat with them, even though Viona actually didn't like things like this, but she knew that her husband was not an ordinary person who could eat comfortably in public without the protection of bodyguards. 

After finishing their late lunch, Fernando took her to shop at a shopping center not far from the restaurant.

At first, no one knew about Fernando's arrival, because he had worn a pair of black sunglasses to disguise himself, but his disguise was exposed when a woman yelled his name, which made a lot of people rushed over them in a short time. 

Viona could only smile as she was pushed by so many people. She held on to two bodyguards, who guarded her from the crush of Fernando fans. 

"Come on, I can't breathe here," Viona said softly to the bodyguards who guarded her. 

"Yes, Madame," said the two bodyguards protecting her at the same time. 

The two bodyguards then opened a way from the crowd so that Viona could move out. Meanwhile, Justin and Harry, who had just arrived, immediately tried to protect Fernando.

Viona could finally breathe comfortably after she got out of the crowd of people, who wanted to take pictures with her husband. She now looked far ahead where her husband looked patiently waiting for them to take pictures. 

"Ah it's Mr. Fernando, let's take a photo with him," said a girl, who stood beside Viona, pointing to Fernando. 

"Yes, come on! When will we have the chance to take pictures and touch the handsome man in person?" said her female friend.

"I really can go crazy seeing his good looks and charms. I bet in the election for members of the parliament in four months, he will be elected, right?" The first girl replied, placing her hand on her chest. 

Viona, who heard all the words of the two girls, became confused. She did not know at all about Fernando's plans to participate in elections representing the Ontario constituency. 

"Answer my question, did what I just hear is true?" Viona stuttered at the two bodyguards guarding her while looking straight at Fernando. 

"Madame, we ..." 

"Yes or no?!" Viona shrieked, cutting off the words of the two big men loudly.

"Master hasn't officially announced it but ..." 

"So it's true," Viona said slowly, cutting off the husband's two personal bodyguards quickly so that the two men couldn't finish their words. 

The two bodyguards looked awry, they didn't know that the madame didn't know the master's plan, which was done 70%. Viona held her tears so as not to fall as hard as she could. She didn't want to cry in public. 

"Bruno, I want to go to the toilet, wait here, okay?" Viona said softly. 

"Shouldn't we escort you to the front of the toilet?" Asked Bruno, the bodyguard, quickly. 

"You don't need to. The toilet is not far from here, you saw it too, didn't you?" Viona replied with a forced smile, pointing at the toilet in the mall. 

"Yes, Madame, we'll wait here," Bruno replied obediently. 

Viona nodded her head slowly. She then walked to the toilet on the ground floor of the mall, where she was actually going to go shopping with Fernando.

Holding back her tears, she walked slowly to the toilet, while continuing to hear the screams of women who wanted to take pictures with Fernando in front of the lobby. 

"I just want to live my life like an ordinary person, Fernando, I don't need a lot of money and your power," Viona said softly, looking far at her husband, who was surrounded by his fans. "I'm sorry ... I can't do this."

Viona sobbed while walking away from the toilet and disappeared from the sight of the two large men, who were keeping an eye on her from the front of the mall.

To be continued.
