Chapter 241 - Changes In Appetite

Hearing what Viona said, Fernando was stunned for a few moments, he then realized that his wife was hungry. Not long after, Fernando's laughter broke out, he quickly knelt and kissed Viona's stomach without shame in front of everyone in the mall.

"So daddy's hero is just hungry, huh?" Fernando whispered as he kissed Viona's stomach repeatedly.

"Don't do this here, get up! Many people are watching us," Viona said uncomfortably as she tried to pull Fernando's arm to stand up, she didn't want to be the center of attention for too long.

Fernando who realized that everyone was watching what he was doing immediately stood up and hugged Viona tightly without embarrassment.

"I'm sorry if you all have to see what I just did, I was just chatting with my son who is in my wife's stomach. I apologize for making you feel uncomfortable with the way I behave around my wife," Fernando shouted in a loud voice while looking at the second floor where many people were looking at him and Viona on the first floor.

There was a sound of applause from the people in a unison, even a whistling sound was heard after Fernando said it like that.

"You are indeed a role model, Sir."

"You two are the best couple of the year!"

"I pray that your son will be born well and healthy, Sir."

"Madam, please take good care of your husband. Mr. Fernando is such a good man. There are so many seducers out there."

"Take care of your health too, Madam."

"If your child is born, would you be willing to pair your son with my daughter, Sir?"

"Hopefully, both of you will always be happy."

Prayers from the mall visitors were heard from every corner, they wished all the best for Viona and Fernando as well as their son. Viona was touched by what she heard. She immediately covered her face with both hands because she did not think that what Fernando had said earlier would make them praised and prayed by the visitors. Fernando, who realized that Viona was going to cry, immediately pulled her to his chest and hugged her tightly.

"Thank you all for your prayers, look at my wife! She cries her heart out because of your warm wishes," Fernando said again while waving to the people standing on the second floor.

The sound of screams was immediately heard again in response to Fernando's words, the words sounded louder now as if the entire people in the building were cheering for them. Viona released her hug from Fernando and looked up at the second, third, and fourth floors of the mall.

"Thank you all for your prayers, may God bless all of you because I can't possibly reply to you one by one. I wish you all the best as well," said Viona loudly while holding her chest.

Whistles and applause were heard again from the mall visitors. Didn't want to make the commotion any longer, Fernando said goodbye to everyone in the mall. He suddenly remembered that Viona had asked to go to eat. Fernando quickly asked Viona to come out of the mall. Fortunately, Fernando asked the bodyguards to guard the first floor, because when Fernando and Viona came out, the visitors on the second floor were seen rushing together towards them.

They wanted to take a picture together with the couple, but because the bodyguards had secured the area around the first floor, the visitors could not reach Fernando and Viona who had entered the car.

"Sorry, my baby, you had to wait a while earlier," Fernando whispered softly as he touched Viona's stomach again.

"I feel bad for leaving like this," she said softly.

Fernando who was looking down and busy touching his wife's stomach immediately turned to her. The pregnant woman was now staring out the window where many people were still waving at the two of them.

"Mommy, it would be very risky if we stayed there at this time. Remember what Erick has said? He advised you to not get too tired, I don't want you to stand too long if we have to greet them one by one," Fernando replied quietly as he grabbed Viona's face so he could turn her face gently using his hands.

"But I feel…"

"I think my wife is too kind. You should prioritize your health, remember? Your wellbeing is far above everything at this time. I don't want anything bad to happen to both of you so don't be rebellious and follow Erick's instructions, okay?" Fernando cut off Viona's words quickly.

Viona just smiled at Fernando's words while nodding her head, she then leaned back on the chair because she felt a little tired after walking around in the mall shopping for baby equipment. They spent almost an hour and a half there. Fernando then hugged his wife so romantically while continuing to touch Viona's stomach continuously.

At first, Viona didn't feel comfortable with the way Fernando kept touching her stomach but now she felt something was missing when Fernando didn't touch her stomach. Luke and Justin who sat on the front seat just smiled at the intimacy of their master and madam without daring to comment on it. Not long after that, all of them went to the parking lot. The car carrying Fernando and Viona was heading to a luxurious restaurant. The restaurant was not far from the mall and it didn't take them long to get there.

The bodyguards instantly did their work without being told, they made a line to guard both Fernando and Viona who just got out of the car. The restaurant workers who had prepared the place for the couple went to work quickly. The chef who had been asked by Fernando also prepared things for them.

"Please enjoy it, Sir and Madam," said a waiter as she lowered her head when all the food that Fernando ordered was presented on the table.

"Thank you miss, please give this to you and other waiters," Fernando replied quickly as he handed over three hundred dollars to the servants who had served him earlier.

A smile then appeared on Viona's face when she saw what Fernando did, she then started eating a slice of grilled salmon meat decorated with caviar deliciously. Fernando knew that Viona was very fond of caviar since she got pregnant so she asked the chef to cook it for them this afternoon. Fernando lovingly wiped the remaining caviar on Viona's cheeks.

"Can you eat slowly, Honey?" Fernando said softly, holding back his laughter when he saw her eagerly eating the grilled salmon sushi that had been cooked perfectly by the chef.

"Yeah," answered Viona while nodding her head without even giving much attention to what Fernando just said.

"Is it that good? Does Mommy like it?" he asked quickly, interrupting Viona's words.

"I'm not sure why I like caviar this much now. Back then, I didn't like this at all," she answered honestly, pointing at the food in front of them.

"Because my son's taste followed her daddy's taste, Mommy," Fernando replied quickly.

"It seems so. But I hope he will not follow his daddy's arrogant attitude when he grows up," she continued, insinuating Fernando. 

She really hoped that her son would turn into a humble and gentle man. Slightly different from Fernando, even so, she also hoped he would have this romantic side of Fernando.

"Hehehe, I hope so too. Let it just be me who has such bad traits. My son must grow up into an obedient and reliable person," he replied with a laugh.

They continued to eat with laughter and jokes, Fernando seemed to smile with pride when he saw that Viona had started to like to eat Foie Grass. It was a typical French food made of goose or duck liver. This dish was famous in Europe, especially in France, Bulgaria, and Hungary. This dish was also considered the oldest food in Europe. Before she got pregnant, Viona did not like this luxury food because she felt sorry for the geese when they were forced to eat until her heart was big enough, after that, they would be killed so that their heart could be cooked into luxury food. But, things went differently since she was two months pregnant, she started to like eating the luxury food that Fernando often ate.

"My son is really smart," Fernando said again inaudibly as he spooned chunks of Foie Grass into his mouth.

"What did you just say, Daddy?" asked Viona with her mouth full of food.

"I didn't say anything, Mommy. You should just finish the food. After that, we can go home so you and the baby will be able to rest," replied Fernando, trying to change the subject of the conversation.

Viona just smiled at Fernando's words, she finished her luxurious meal voraciously without any leftovers. Fernando even gave his Foie Grass to Viona voluntarily. He knew that his son was very hungry right now. He wanted to order one more portion of it, but Viona might refuse it so he just gave his.

"Are you already full?" Fernando asked Viona who was cleaning her mouth with a handkerchief.

"Yup," she replied quickly.

"Okay, then, let's go home," Fernando then stood up from his chair and walked over to where Viona was sitting. Without waiting long, Viona stood up and her husband helped her by taking out the chair.

Both of them went out of the restaurant, Viona did not forget to thank the chef who had made such delicious food for her this noon. Receiving thanks from Viona made the restaurant staff move, especially the chef. They thought that Viona had such a good character, not like other wifes from a rich family.

"I'm very tired and full," she said as soon as they got in the car.

"I know, bear it for a moment. We'll go home soon and you can get some rest. I can't imagine how tired you must be for walking around while carrying my baby," Fernando replied quickly.

"I want to sleep with Daddy tonight," she answered.

Blush

Fernando immediately flushed at the words of his wife, it had been more than a week that he hadn't made love to Viona. Hearing those words from Viona was enough to make him feel hot and cold. If only Viona wasn't pregnant he might have attacked her right now.

"What do you mean by saying that, Mommy?" Fernando asked, stammering as he unbuttoned his shirt at the top because he felt so hot suddenly.

"As I say, I want to sleep on the swing at the balcony but I want Daddy to accompany me," she leaned her head on Fernando's shoulder and she touched his hands lovingly.
