Chapter 329 - A True Friend

Rumors about the news that Viona had a miscarriage began to spread in the Global Bross Hospital. No one knew who spread the news first. What was certain was that almost all of the medical staff and other staff already heard the news, even William could not contain the information that had already spread. 

"How come the news about Viona miscarriage spread like this, Dexter?!" asked Fernando angrily when he just arrived at Professor Dexter's office. 

"I don't know either, I think this is just a hoax," replied Dexter calmly. 

"What I want to ask is who spread this news, Dexter, you're the leader here. This is painful. Can't you know who the culprit is?!" Fernando asked back with a rising tone. 

"I really don't know, Fernando. I thought that this was a hoax at first, until finally I was shocked when I saw a photo of Viona who just got out of the car of the woman who saved her," Dexter replied quietly as he showed a photo of Viona who was half-conscious being carried by several nurses with legs covered in blood as they got out of Mrs. Jasmine's car in front of the lobby of Saint Carolus Hospital on Frank's wedding night. the photo. He only heard that there were photos of Viona scattered, but he didn't know which ones. 

"My love…" Fernando said stammered while touching the photo of Viona bleeding in front of the Saint Carolus Hospital. 

William, who had just entered Professor Dexter's office, immediately stopped his steps when he saw Dexter's cue. He immediately closed his mouth when he realized that Fernando was crying while touching Viona's photo on Dexter's desk. 

"You must be in great pain at that time, Dear. I'm sorry, Vio, I'm sorry…" Fernando said softly in a hoarse voice. "Where are you, Dear? Come back, dear, I'm sorry ... arrgghhhh ..." shouted Fernando full of emotion as he threw all the items on Dexter's table to the floor. 

His emotions became uncontrollable again when he remembered Viona who was not there beside him. He was completely crushed when he remembered that. The pain, disappointment, and anger to find out that his son died was not as painful as right now when Viona left. 

Because Fernando was getting out of control, William ordered Dexter to catch Fernando who was destroying all the items in Dexter's office. After struggling together to calm Fernando, whose power was very strong, William and Dexter's efforts were finally successful even though they both have to get punched by Fernando. William was forced to tie him to a chair, as he was already overwhelmed by Fernando's strength. Even though he also often did some exercises, his strength was incomparable to Fernando, who was a former basketball athlete on campus. So to reduce the number of bruises on his body, William asked Dexter to tie Fernando. 

"Fuck ... let me go, Will, you're looking to die with me, Will!" shrieked Fernando loudly as he struggled around the chair, trying to untie himself from the bond that William had made.

"Only a crazy person would want to let you go, bastard. Can't you look at my face and my arms that are hurt because you hit me earlier?" said William, quickly showing his body parts that were punched by Fernando. 

"I can even do more than that. Now let me go so you can see first hand what I can do for you, Will," Fernando said in a rising voice. 

"Be patient, Fernando. This is for your own good," added Dexter briefly, moving his jaw slowly after being punched by Fernando.

"What goodness?! Hurry and let me go, Will ..." 

"Your punches are very hard, Fernando. I can't imagine how Viona can withstand the slaps from you all this time, Fernando," said William, interrupting Fernando. 

"Will, you ..." 

"Shush, shut up," whispered William, interrupting Dexter's words. 

"Do you know, Fernando, that your punch is very strong? Look at my body and face that was hit by your blows just now. And believe me this is very painful, Fernando. Have you ever imagined how Viona's physical pain when receiving your blows all this time?" said William without guilt as he folded his arms across his chest. He deliberately said like that to attack Fernando's psyche.

"No matter how strong a woman's body is, she still a woman, Fernando. Once or twice you slapped her, may not be a problem. But when you repeatedly throw your hand at her, I'm sure she was not only physically hurt, but her heart was hurt too. Therefore, when she left you, there was no regret at all from her, even though she had to leave you without bringing anything," said William, adding to his previous words.

"Damn you, Will, you have no right to speak like that. Viona is my wife, I'm the one who deserves to hurt her." 

"The one who deserves to hurt her do you mean? Come on, Fernando, open your eyes, you know Viona is not the same woman as your other women. She is a great woman, educated, has a good career, and is very beautiful. Even though she has no property, I'm sure out there, there will be a kind man who will happily marry her and …"

"William Alexander, watch your words! Viona is my wife, William ... she is my wife, there is no way she will remarry. And I will not allow that to happen. I will kill anyone who dares to touch my wife, William," shouted Fernando in a loud voice, cutting off William's words. His breath seemed to fluctuate, indicating that he was really provoked by William's last words. 

Dexter, who never saw Fernando this angry, took two steps back. He held his chest slowly when he heard Fernando's words. 

"Oh right, then what are you going to do now, Fernando? Your wife has gone for one week and you have not found her. Who knows, right now Viona has been helped by a kind-hearted man who …"

"William Alexander! Try saying that again, I'll tear your mouth and pull your tongue out of your throat, William," shouted Fernando hoarsely because he had been screaming relentlessly for a while, throwing curses at William who was provoking him. 

Hearing Fernando's words made William smile. His goal was to provoke Fernando had succeeded. He then took a chair and sat in front of Fernando without any fear at all, even though Fernando had been threatening to tear his mouth. 

"If that's how much you love her, show her, Fernando. The way you've been expressing it is wrong. Viona is a human being, she is not your pet. You can't tie her in your great mansion. Viona is a smart woman, Fernando, she is highly educated. I'm sure if you talk kindly to her without violence, she will also understand, don't I often tell you. Once you hurt her, then she will remember it for a thousand years, and what I've told you happened now, right? Look, now Viona has left without thinking. She left with the pain in her body. As long as you know, Fernando, the woman who had a miscarriage had it even much more painful compared to those who give birth. You can imagine how painful it was. But Viona didn't care about it. She chose to leave you with the pain. What does that mean, Fernando? That means the wound in her heart hurt so much more than her physical wounds. That's why she chose to leave the hospital so she could get away from you. Don't you realize that, Fernando? How big is the wound that you cut on her heart?" said William at length, trying to open Fernando's mind.

" I love her, Will, I really love Viona ..."

"But your way is wrong, Fernando. I have often warned you before. Viona is not the same woman as your other women. She was a smart woman. An educated woman and for sure she is not a gold digger like the women out there, Fernando, don't you remember how you tried to get her first?" William asked again in a more gentle tone. 

Fernando was silent at the words of William. His eyes that previously looked fiery full of anger changed with a look full of regret. Tears were gathering in his eyes. Seeing the change in his attitude, William smiled. 

"Change your nature, I will help you find her. I'm sure Viona still loves you, but I'm sure you will need extra effort to get her trust again," said William quietly.

"H-help me look for her, Will, help me bring her home again. I really love her, Will ..." Fernando sobbed with tears that had poured down his cheeks. 

"Sure, I'll help you. Now you calm down and think with a clear mind. Don't go crazy anymore or I'll inject you with sleeping pills," Fernando smiled at his best friend's words.

Slowly, William opened the rope that tied Fernando and hugged him tightly to give support as a friend. Dexter, who had been tense seeing the feud between Fernando and William, finally smiled. 

"You are Tom and Jerry in the real world and I'm lucky to know you," said Dexter quietly, wiping the tears in his eyes slowly
