Chapter 168 - Viona's Heartache

Viona sent a message to Nurse Chloe that she wouldn't return to the hospital again. She asked Doctor Cecilia to replace her half a day working hours. After sending the message, Viona walked away from the clinic, with slow steps. She walked aimlessly along the road. She couldn't feel the chill air piercing through the bones; the wound in her heart caused by Fernando's words had really numbed her feelings to the sting of the wind biting her skin.

Viona's smile widened when she saw an old married couple walking hand in hand to protect each other as they were about to get on the bus that had just arrived. 

"They are happy," Viona said softly as she continued to stare at the bus that had just stopped in front of her. 

Viona's two eyes did not blink when she saw the bus leaving. When she was about to walk again, suddenly she was surprised by a little girl who gave her a paper bag.

"What is this?" Asked Viona curiously. 

"It is a scarf that we made ourselves, Ma'am," replied the little girl in front of her with a smile. 

"We???" 

"Yes ... we are children of the Light Orphanage. Ma'am, we distribute free scarves to pedestrians in need, such as today," said a 17-year old girl, cutting off Viona's words.

"The orphanage," Viona squeaked with a trembling tone. 

" Yes Ma'am, our orphanage usually gives away free scarves every winter for the passersby as an expression of our gratitude to so many people who have become donors at our orphanage. We want to share the happiness," said the beautiful girl in front of Viona with a smile.

"Where is the address of your orphanage?" Viona asked with a smile.

"This is the address, Ma'am," replied the little girl, while handing a business card to Viona.

Viona took the name card from the little girl in front of her. She smiled when she read the address of the orphanage, which turned out to be not too far from the Global Bross Hospital where she worked. The two orphanage girls then left Viona alone. They continued their task of distributing scarves for free to other pedestrians.

"I have to go there someday," said Viona, as she smiled. Looking at the girls distributing the free scarf reminded her of her childhood at the orphanage. 

Viona, who was hungry, eventually continued to walk in search of a restaurant. When she was going to cross the road, suddenly a luxury car stopped in front of her.

It was a car that she knew so well. Soon, the man that she was avoiding got fown. 

"So you took leave for half a day for this?" Fernando snapped sarcastically to Viona. 

"I have business with other doctors earlier," Viona replied briefly. 

"Is it true that you have business with other doctors? What is this?!!" Fernando said, glancing sharply at the bag that she carried. 

"This bag was given by those children," Viona replied, pointing to several orphanage children who were distributing the same bags as the one she was holding to other pedestrians.

"Alright, let's go home ..." 

"No!!! I don't want to go with you," Viona shrieked, as she brushed Fernando's hand, who wanted to hold her hand.

"Don't provoke my anger, Vio!!!" Fernando snapped, glaring at Viona.

"I don't want to fight with you. You better go home alone," Viona answered in a barely audible voice.

Hearing Viona's words made Fernando speechless. He then left without a word, leaving her alone by the side of the road. Seeing Fernando leaving in his expensive car made Viona sigh. A long breath. She continued to walk toward the fast-food restaurant to satisfy her rumbling stomach.

When she got to the fast food restaurant, she ordered a burger and French fries, along with a bottle of mineral water. Not long after, the food she ordered was ready. She then enjoyed the warm meal slowly. While eating, suddenly Viona smelled the perfume of a female visitor who had just entered, which made her instantly nauseous. She ran to the toilet and vomited the food she had just eaten. She felt weak. 

Without her knowing it, apparently Fernando had asked Luke to turn his car and return to where she stood before, and right now, Fernando saw clearly how Viona vomited in the sink in the toilet. 

"What's wrong with you, Vio?" Fernando asked, surprising Viona, who was drying her face with a tissue. 

Her heart seemed to stop beating when she heard Fernando's voice. She widened her eyes when she actually saw him in front of her.

" Y- yyou .... hooekkkk ..." 

Viona was unable to finish her words because her stomach was churning again. She again drew the contents of her water-only guts, which made her weak. Fernando, who saw her vomiting, felt helpless. He then helped massaging her neck gently. 

"Thank you," Viona said softly, as she wiped her mouth with a tissue when she finished vomiting.

"Let's go home. Look at your face, you look like a living corpse," Fernando replied coldly. 

"I still have business, you better go home alone," Viona replied, refusing Fernando's invitation to go home because she still wanted to stay away from him. 

Again, being rejected by Viona, Fernando finally ran out of patience. Without saying a word, he then asked Luke to immediately leave Viona alone. He felt really annoyed that Viona didn't appreciate his good intentions. Seeing Fernando leaving made her relieved. She was afraid that Fernando would find out about her pregnancy. 

"You can't know about this child, Fernando," Viona said to herself, as she touched her flat stomach slowly. 

"Next time, don't do this again, child, don't let your father know about your existence." Viona added, smiling. She felt the child in her stomach was trying to show his existence to his father.

Viona finally left the fast food restaurant as her appetite was gone. Covering her nose, she left the fast food restaurant because the woman with the strong perfume was still sitting in the restaurant.

<FERNANDO'S MANSION>

Arriving at the house, Fernando immediately walked to his room quickly because he was still annoyed by what had just happened, when he was rejected twice by Viona. He felt very angry because he felt he was ignored by Viona. 

"Aarrggghhhh ..." 

"You're really insolent, Vio," Fernando shouted. 

"Damn, you don't know who I really am, Vio," added Fernando, as he threw a flower vase to the wall of his room, causing his room to be dirty and messy. 

Fernando then went into the bathroom to clean himself then put on clean clothes and then came out of his room hurriedly to the first floor. 

"Lukas, come and drive me," Fernando told his personal driver in a raised voice.

"Yes Sir," replied Luke obediently. 

A man opened the car door for Fernando to enter, and shortly thereafter, Lukas stepped on the gas pedal and left Fernando's private palace. 

"Where are we going, Sir?" Asked Luke quietly. 

"Take me to the Rainbow Bar," Fernando replied briefly, as he was sending a message to Justin and Harry to follow him to the Rainbow Bar as well. 

"Yes Sir," replied Luke obediently. He then accelerated the car towards to the Rainbow Bar.

The car carrying Fernando was followed by two black cars behind, which contained eight of Fernando's personal bodyguards. Fernando smiled faintly when he read the reply to the message from the manager of the Rainbow Bar saying that he had prepared many beautiful women for him according to his previous requests. 

"I'll show you, Vio, how easy it is for me to look for beautiful women," Fernando said to himself with a thin smile.

<DAISY APARTMENT> 

Frank's mood in the hospital was ruined after he quarreled with Viona. He felt that Viona really ignored him. 

"Arrgghhhh." 

"Why did you choose that bastard, Vio?!! I'm still far above Fernando!!!" Frank said while shouting. 

Crash! 

Crash! 

Frank threw some plates in the pantry angrily. He then sat on the sofa, scratching his head that don't itch with annoyance. His obsession for Viona really drove him crazy. He had never felt this kind of feeling before.

Frank really fell in love with Viona at first sight in Ireland, where he saw her helping several accident victims with alacrity. 

Ring!

Frank's apartment bell was ringing continuously so that it made him even more annoyed. 

"Damn you, Louisa. Don't you know the password for this apartment?" Frank cursed in annoyance, because he thought that it was Louisa who rung the bell repeatedly. 

Clicked! 

"Don't you know the password for my apartment Lou …" Frank could not finish his words when he saw the figure who was standing in front of him and had rang the bell.

To be continued.
