Chapter 259 - Bloodless Pain

Fernando woke up from his sleep in the morning when he heard the sound of his cell phone ringing endlessly on the nightstand. At first, he ignored the ringing sound by covering his ears with a pillow and tightening his hug to Viona. However, because Viona was getting annoyed, he finally relented and grabbed the cellphone that had been ringing non-stop for almost forty-five minutes. 

"You're indeed asking to be killed, William," Fernando said in annoyance after he managed to connect with the call from William. 

"I'm sorry to bother you this early, but what is clear is that you have to go to the hospital right now because your brother seems to be in trouble," William answered quickly. 

"In trouble ...?!! Do you mean Frank? Never mind, he's a person who always has problems," Fernando replied, too lazy to discuss his younger brother this early. 

"Your brother has done surgery alone on two patients since last night without any other surgeon helping him. You must come to the hospital immediately to avoid unnecessary things to happen. I'm afraid that one of his operations fails and it will have a bad impact on his future career," said William quickly. 

"Operation ... Speak clearly, William, I'm listening here," said Viona, grabbing the cell phone that Fernando held. 

She was surprised when she heard William's faint voice, who said that Frank was performing operations without the help of other surgeons as assistants. Moreover, he had performed surgeries on two patients at once in one night. 

Not long after, there was a serious conversation between William and Viona, witnessed by Fernando. He was just silent seeing Viona looked very serious listening to William's conversation from his cell phone. 

"Okay, I understand. Then you go first, I will follow you there," said Viona, ending the call with William after talking for almost ten minutes on the cell phone.

"Wait, wait, wait ... what do you mean you're going there, Babe?" Fernando asked quickly, when he heard Viona saying that she would follow William. 

"Frank was my former boss, after all, and currently he is in need of support from his colleagues. Moreover, he just did a major operation by himself. I'm sure that right now his condition must be very tired, and I don't want anything bad to happen with his career going forward. So, I beg you, please, don't keep me from going to the hospital. I know the limits. I'm just being professional as a doctor," Viona replied quickly, staring intently at Fernando's eyes. 

Fernando was silent after hearing Viona's words. He knew that his wife was currently talking seriously, seeing from her tone of speech and the sharp gaze of her eyes.

"Okay, I'll accompany you to the hospital. But for now, we'll take a shower first, have breakfast, and then go there," said Fernando with a smile. 

Bam!

Viona jumped to Fernando quickly so that he fell backwards while hugging Viona, who was clinging on his body.

"Thank you ... I love you, Daddy," Viona shrieked excitedly.

"I love you to, my love," Fernando replied, hugging Viona full of love. 

After hugging her for a while, Fernando then invited Viona to go to the bathroom before leaving for the hospital. It was a morning shower ritual that added to the harmony of their household which according to Fernando, must be done every day, even though Viona actually felt annoyed and uncomfortable, because every time they did it, she would be attacked until she was exhausted before she finally took a bath. 

"Are you done?" Fernando asked softly, as he walked over to Viona who was still standing in front of the mirror, tidying her clothes. 

"I still look great wearing clothes like this, right?" Viona asked back quickly as she turned towards Fernando, who was standing behind her. 

"Of course, my wife looks beautiful in any clothes," Fernando replied quickly. 

"I'm serious now," Viona was fiercely annoyed. She didn't like being teased like that by Fernando. 

"That's right, my love, you're still beautiful in this outfit. Moreover, your stomach is starting to look sexy," Fernando said softly as he touched Viona's stomach, which had started to swell a little. 

Even though it was not very visible to others, but for Fernando, the change in Viona's stomach looked significant. Viona was silent to hear Fernando's words. In the past, she actually didn't like being praised by Fernando, but somehow it felt different this time. She was happy to get praised by her husband. 

"Look, my hero is getting big in here," Fernando whispered softly as he felt Viona's stomach from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder while staring at the mirror in front of them. 

"It feels like time is running so fast, even though it was only yesterday that I found out that I was pregnant, but now it has been developing this fast," Viona replied with a smile towards the mirror, where Fernando was staring at her. 

"I will make him the greatest man in this city ... Ah, no, in this country, or even in this world. I will make everyone in this world know the name of our child later on," said Fernando quietly. 

"You're annoying, let's go. We're almost late, I'm sure William must have arrived at the hospital by now," Viona replied, changing the conversation with a red face. 

Fernando smiled seeing Viona blushed like that. He finally let go of his hug on Viona and took her out to the first floor to have breakfast in the dining room, where their food had been prepared by the maids. 

"Morning, Sir, Madame," greeted Teddy and all the maids who lined up in the dining room welcomed Fernando and Viona who had just entered the dining room. 

"Morning, Teddy," Viona replied with a smile. 

After Fernando and Viona sat in their chairs, the maids then left the dining room and let the master and mistress enjoy their time together. 

"Eat plenty of fruit, remember Professor Erick and William's message," Fernando said softly as he handed a piece of kiwi fruit to Viona, who was enjoying watermelon. 

"I know," Viona replied quickly. 

Fernando then pinched Viona's nose with glee as he saw her mouth was full of watermelon. Viona only smiled thinly as she was being treated like that by Fernando. She then put the kiwi fruit that Fernando had just given to her mouth. For several days, she had more fruit and vegetable intake as recommended by Professor Erick. After eating for almost ten minutes, Viona finally felt that her stomach was too full. So she invited Fernando to go to the hospital immediately, because Fernando had finished eating since earlier.
