Because the arm sling on Fernando's hand had not been removed by Viona, Fernando couldn't work, and all his works were done by Justin and Harry. Several mass media that tried to conduct an interview with him had not yet been accepted, because the wound on his hand had not healed. Fernando didn't want anyone to see him in this state, therefore, he stayed in his mansion.
Viona asked curiously when she saw Fernando talking seriously on his cell phone.
"Journalists from various print and electronic media," Fernando said with a smile and put his cell phone back on the table and got ready to greet Viona, who came towards him.
"Why do the reporters want to talk to you again? Didn't Justin and Harry take care of it yesterday?" Viona asked, confused again, sitting next to Fernando.
"Of course, because they are curious about me, Babe, Fernando Gray Willan is not an ordinary person. So it's only natural that they always want to know about me, especially with my withdrawal from the parliamentary nomination," he replied boastingly.
"How annoying ... You don't have to be arrogant like that, I already know who you are," Viona said fiercely, while looking away from him.
He chuckled when he saw her sulked. He then grabbed her into his arms tightly while occasionally kissing his wife's forehead.
"They're just doing their job, Babe. They're still curious as to why I withdrew from the parliament election that will take place soon," Fernando said quietly as he touched her stomach, which was still flat.
"But yesterday you explained the reason in front of everyone in front of the general election office, is that still not enough?" Viona asked, staring into Fernando 's eyes.
"They think it's still not enough, Babe. Yesterday I did not say in detail about the reason and now they want to find out in detail directly from me by conducting an exclusive interview," Fernando replied quietly.
"Exclusive interview." said Viona in confusion.
"Yes, by conducting interviews exclusively, their companies or TV stations will indirectly increase in rating and share. It is a business of television media, so it's no wonder they are competing to meet me in person," Fernando replied, explaining to her with a smile.
"Oh ..."
Smack!
Viona could not finish her words, because her lips were kissed by Fernando, who couldn't stand to see the rounded expression of her mouth when she was about to respond to Fernando's words before.
"Don't kiss me here," Viona said quietly, while trying to push Fernando from her body.
"Why?" Fernando asked in confusion, as he released her lips.
"This is the living room, can't you see?" Viona replied curtly as she tried to get away from Fernando.
"Well and this is my house, so it doesn't matter where I do it, it's my right, Babe," Fernando replied with a teasing smile to her.
"Don't be crazy, you really think I want to do that with you here?" Viona shrieked as she tried to get away from Fernando.
Fernando immediately burst out laughing at her words. His initial intention was just to tease his wife, but apparently his wife took him seriously that he wanted to make love to her in the family room.
"I'm just joking, Honey. After all, how could I let other people see your body," he said with a smile.
"Why do you always tease me? You're so annoying," Viona replied curtly.
"I'm sorry, I'm just so happy to be able to enjoy days like these. Come here, I still want to talk to you a lot," he said as he opened his hands, asking her to come to him.
Viona finally sat back next to Fernando, even though in fact she was still a little upset because her husband kept teasing her.
"Did you know that your friend has remarried?" Said Fernando quietly, opening the conversation.
"My friend? Who is it?" Viona asked curiously.
"Andrew Steven Joy marries Doctor Cecilia, who replaced your position in the hospital," Fernando replied with a smile.
"R-really? When did they get married?" Viona asked, stuttered, trying to cover up her surprise.
"William said two days ago," Fernando replied quickly.
Viona smiled at his words. She still could not believe that Andrew remarried in such a short time after his marriage with his ex-wife was canceled. Moreover, he married a doctor who she knew very well.
"Why should you be surprised? Are you still ..."
"Don't mess around with me, Fernando, I can be mad at you!" Viona's words cut off Fernando's, who wanted to tease her back.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Honey, I'm sorry." Fernando replied, raising his hands up when he saw Viona's eyes that were already staring at him sharply.
"You are so annoying that you always bother me, just go to the office and don't disturb me at home," Viona said fiercely as she folded her arms to her chest.
Fernando immediately hugged her tightly. When he saw Viona was angry at him again, he laughed at her, who was easily angered now.
"Forgive me, Madam, sorry, please stop sulking," Fernando said softly, seducing Viona who still didn't want to talk to him.
"I hate you, don't talk to me," Viona replied curtly and tried to let go of Fernando's left hand that was hugging her.
"Please don't go, just stay here with me, Mommy," said Fernando, imitating a small child's voice while tightening his hug to Viona.
"I don't want to talk to you if you keep teasing me like that. I'm serious and don't like to joke," Viona answered with a rising voice.
"Yes, Mom, I won't do it again," Fernando shrieked suddenly.
Viona immediately closed her right ear because Fernando's voice sounded very loud in her ear. Spontaneously, she pinched him on the stomach to punish him, causing him to grimace in pain due to her painful little pinch.
After joking around, Fernando finally spoke seriously to Viona. He told her what he had heard from William about the news of Andrew's marriage to Doctor Cecilia which took place two days ago.
Viona looked serious listening to Fernando's story word for word. She was even very surprised when Fernando told her that Andrew's ex-wife was also working at Global Bros Hospital as a nurse as well.
"Are you serious, Babe?" Viona asked repeatedly when Fernando finished his story.
"Yes ... did you forget it? When they were married, we came to their wedding, and at that time I proposed to you in front of everyone," Fernando replied with a smile.
He recalled how he had hurt Andrew when he proposed to Viona in front of him. A revenge that Fernando had planned when he saw Viona was given a ring by Andrew in the park.
"At that time, she was wearing makeup and a wedding dress, how would I know that she is currently working at the Global Bros Hospital too?" Viona said quietly, as she remembered Andrew's ex-wife that she saw at the wedding at that time.
"Have you remembered her?" Fernando asked back while stroking Viona's long thick hair.
Viona shook her head slowly. She gave in trying to remember Andrew's ex-wife, who was divorced within one week, or rather the woman who was abandoned by Andrew, because Andrew had filed a marriage annulment in court.
"She is Nurse Lucia Bran, the nurse under the surgical division that you led back then," Fernando said softly with a laugh.
"Nurse Lu-Lucia is Andrew's ex-wife?! Then does Cecilia know that her husband's ex-wife was currently working in the same place as her?" Viona shrieked in a rising voice.
"Then does she know that Andrew has remarried and ..."
"Hey, hey, hey, hey, why are you bothered about them? They have nothing to do with us, Babe, so you don't have to think about it that far," said Fernando slowly, interrupting Viona's words.
"Yes, I know, but I just can't imagine if I'm being in Cecilia's position, where she has to work in the same place as her husband's ex-wife, it must be terrible and ..."
Smack!
Fernando kissed her lips again quickly to stop her words.
"Do not compare yourself with them, because forever you will be my only wife, even in the next life you will still be my wife," Fernando said firmly, as he glared deeply into her eyes.
