Chapter 334 - Meeting Fernando

"What's wrong with you, Adam?" Steffi asked quietly to Adam who seemed not focused on driving the car. 

"Anji… Anji, what's wrong with her?" Steffi asked, cutting Adam off.

"This is the 16th, Steffi," Adam replied, briefly. 

At first, Steffi didn't understand the direction of Adam's conversation, but not long after, she finally understood the direction of Adam's conversation. A worried expression was pictured on Steffi's face, she had once seen Viona went crazy when she was having her period two months ago when she accidentally came to the orphanage to look for Adam because there were many patients waiting at the clinic. 

"Oh my God, I almost forgot, do we just cancel this trip?" Asked Steffi, in a rising tone. 

"We can't delay, Steff, the medicine at the clinic is out. There's no way I could sacrifice the fate of many people, Steffi," Adam replied, hoarsely. Even though he said that but his heart was still uneasy because he thought about Viona, who was in pain.

"Yes, I know, it's a tough choice. What if I go to the hospital by myself, how about that?" Steffi asked again.

"You don't know the doctors there, Steff, it will be difficult for you to enter. Let's just continue this journey. Before leaving, I already gave Anji medicine. I hope she will be fine after taking the drug," Adam replied, dryly.

"I hope so," said Steffi, quickly. 

Adam smiled at Steffi's words. He then accelerated his car to quickly reach the city. In the first month he saw Viona's pain, Adam was very worried, because during his time as a doctor, he had never seen a woman in pain like Viona had when she was having her period. Because he could not bear to see her in pain, Adam finally took her to a hospital in a small town closest to the village of Elora, Adam asked Viona to do an ultrasound to check the condition of her uterus to find out what caused her such pain. However, after doing the check, nothing was found in her uterus, everything looked fine and normal. Adam was sure what happened to Viona right now had something to do with the miscarriage she experienced. Adam guessed that Viona had a psychic trauma which made her feel the pain over and over again, and at an excruciating level, just like when she had a miscarriage, even though she was only having a normal menstrual period. 

After driving for nearly three hours, Adam's simple car reached the city. He continued to drive his car to the largest and most famous hospital in the city. This was the first time he had come to the hospital to get medical supplies. The destination was Global Bross Hospital. Steffi, who had never seen Global Bross Hospital, seemed amazed to see the hospital building, which was very beautiful and large. 

"Surely the doctors who work in this hospital are cool," said Steffi, quickly. 

"What do you mean?" Adam asked, quietly. 

"Just look at this hospital building, the hospital is very large and luxurious. Surely the doctors here have guaranteed lives and have high salaries and luxurious facilities," said Steffi with a broad smile. 

Adam smiled at his assistant's words, then parked his car neatly in the guest parking lot. Not long after, he got out of his car with Steffi, who still couldn't control herself. She was still amazed by the splendor of the Global Bross Hospital. 

"What you see is good, but not necessarily with other people's judgments, Steff, come on in. I don't want to make Professor William wait longer," said Adam inviting Steffi to come in.

"Okay Doc," said Steffi, excitedly. 

Adam asked Steffi to fill in the guest book at the reception desk first before the receptionists confirmed to Professor William about their arrival. A while later, a receptionist came and led Adam and Steffi into a special room, where Professor William would meet them. When stepping in, Steffi never stopped praising the Global Bross Hospital. She was really impressed with the hospital interior. 

"Please, wait here, Professor William will be here soon," said the receptionist, gently allowing Adam and Steffi to sit down in the meeting room. 

"Thank you, Miss," replied Steffi and Adam, simultaneously. 

"Then if you'll excuse me," said the receptionist, gently. 

Adam and Steffi nodded their heads slowly in response to the receptionist's words. They then sat nicely on the chairs in the room. Adam could not blame Steffi, his assistant, for admiring the hospital they were visiting, because Global Bross Hospital was so magnificent. Several times Adam saw the doctors passing through the meeting room, he was fascinated by the doctors who was busy. All the doctors he saw were very beautiful, but again the beauty of the doctors he had just seen was nothing compared to Viona at home. Viona was very beautiful without wearing any make up. Her pink lips look very natural and more dazzling with her fair face that is similar to Asian women, especially her black hair which made her look very beautiful like a doll. Suddenly, Adam's face flushed when he remembered Viona's beauty. He also felt a little hot even though the air conditioner in the room was very cold. Adam then walked to the trash can to relieve the heat in his body. Shortly afterwards, Professor William was seen entering the room alone, his friendly smile appeared when he saw Adam. 

"Welcome, Doctor Adam, I've been wanting to meet you in person," said Professor William kindly, reaching out to Adam. 

"I am very lucky to meet you. Doc, sorry, Professor," Adam stuttered. 

"Ha ha ha… You can call me Doctor too, my professor title is still new. I am more comfortable being called a doctor than a professor," said William with a big laugh. 

William got the title of Professor for two months after he had rejected it several times. But this time he finally relented and accepted the title which he really deserved. Adam smiled broadly at the words of William, who initially was afraid to meet such a great doctor at Global Bross Hospital, but now he felt comfortable, because Professor William was very kind and friendly. 

"So these are the only medicines you need, Doc?" Professor William asked, quietly, as he read the list of drugs that Adam had written before. 

"Yes, sir, because my clinic is small, so there is no need for too much," Adam replied softly. 

"Don't hesitate, Doc, your clinic is now under the auspices of our hospital management. You don't need to be ashamed or afraid. Because believe me, our hospital is very supportive of talented young doctors like you are, Doc," said Professor William, quickly.

"Yes, I understand, I'm really lucky you want to respond to my request and approved it, because several hospitals in the city have rejected my previous request," Adam said, honestly. 

William smiled at the words of the talented doctor in front of him slowly, he then patted Adam's shoulder with great pride. 

"I'm very lucky to be given the opportunity to be your medicine supplier, Doc, our hospital is very wide to open opportunities for talented doctor devoted to the countryside like you. So don't feel embarrassed, Doc, once again we are the lucky ones to meet a doctor with a noble heart like you," said Professor William, solemnly.

"Thank you, Sir, I am very lucky... " Adam could not finish his words because suddenly the door to the conference room opened wide from the outside and soon a dashing man in his expensive clothes entered into where Professor William was. 

"When did you come home?" Professor William asked, incredulously, when he saw his best friend in front of him. 

"Am I not allowed to go back to my own country?" asked the man who was none other than Fernando, in a loud voice. 

"You bastard, I missed you," replied William, quickly, as he hugged the newly arrived Fernando. 

"I missed you too," whispered Fernando, softly, he felt uncomfortable being hugged by William in front of strangers. 

William immediately let go of his hug from Fernando quickly, he became embarrassed because he had acted recklessly. 

"Oh, right, Doctor Adam, allow me to introduce you to Fernando Grey Willan, the owner of this hospital," said Professor William, introducing Fernando to Adam.

"Nice to meet you sir... "

"Fernando, call me Fernando," said Fernando interrupting Adam's words while shaking Adam's hand quickly.
