Amina and Jenny were exchanging looks as if they were talking using unknown eye language. Until Jenny looked down with a deep sigh as did Amina who touched her head with both hands while looking down. When Fernando saw what his sisters-in-law were doing, he was confused since he didn't understand what kind of hidden messages they were passing to each other.

"What's wrong with you two?" Fernando asked in confusion.

​​

"I don't know where to start because it's not right for me to tell you," Jenny replied, glancing at Amina, who was still staring at the floor.

"What do you mean? I don't understand where you are going with this?" Fernando said while glaring at Amina and Jenny in turn.

Jenny instantly closed her mouth tightly after hearing Fernando's words because she didn't want to talk much and waited for Amina to react.

"Have you ever heard about Doctor Rachel from Viona before?" Amina asked, starting her story.

"No, I haven't. Who's Rachel? As far as I know, there's no doctor named Rachel in the Global Bross Hospital," Fernando replied flatly.

"She was not a doctor at Global Bross Hospital but she was a doctor at the previous hospital when Viona still lived with us in England," Amina continued again.

"No…I think Viona never told me about her friend in England," Fernando replied quickly.

"So, I guess Viona didn't tell you anything about it," Jenny chirped while leaning on the sofa.

Hearing Jenny's answer made Fernando even more confused, he did not understand the direction of the conversation between his two sisters-in-law who had just arrived from England. This was because Viona never talked about any of her friends in England, either friends at college or colleagues at the hospital she previously worked at. Jenny finally touched Amina's shoulder slowly because she saw Fernando's confused expression as if she was giving Amina a code to tell Fernando the truth. After all, Fernando had the right to know Viona's past while in England. Amina nodded slowly in response to Jenny's gesture.

She then took the most comfortable sitting position beside Fernando who was still wondering what was going on. Not long after, Amina began to tell Fernando who Rachel was and her relationship with Viona. Amina told in detail how Rachel and Viona were very competitive since the first year after graduating from college. One of the reasons was because Viona and Rachel were friends of the same department at the medical faculty in Birmingham, they finally got a job at the same hospital which was led by Rachel's father at that time.

Fernando looked very serious while listening to Amina's story, he even appeared to widen his eyes. Amina began to tell about Darren and Rachel's forbidden relationship which Viona found out by accident. At that time, Darren had a fiancé who came from a family of one of the British nobles. As a result, when his relationship with Rachel was revealed, his engagement with the noble was canceled immediately for fear of Darren would taint their status as a British noble. He even lost the support from a certain party because he was running for senator.

"Are you saying that my wife got back to Canada because Darren started to harass her in a way?" Fernando asked in a rising tone when Amina had finished her story.

"Yes, at that time Viona decided to return to Canada and accepted the offer given by Professor Dexter to become a doctor at Global Bross Hospital even though she refused it at first because…"

"Because of what?" Fernando asked curiously because Amina suddenly stopped her story out of nowhere.

"Because she was still afraid of you…She was terrified of Fernando Gray Willan who had held her back then and turned her into your nanny," Jenny replied quickly.

"What? She was afraid of me?" Fernando shrieked in disbelief.

"It wasn't entirely because of you, I think. She also felt guilty over what had happened to Zevanya. She felt like she was responsible for your daughter's death. During the first two years, I knew Viona always told us how regretful she was for not able to save Zevanya back then. She always felt sad when she saw a little girl at Zevanya's age in England. However, since Jenny and I continued to provide support for her, Viona gradually started to move on from her trauma and started to accept everything and stop blaming herself," Amina said with a smile remembering her good times with Viona in England.

Fernando was silent to hear her story, he never thought that Viona would be that sad over the incident. He used to think that Viona purposely ran away from him because she wanted to escape from her responsibility, but today he just found out the real reason why Viona hid from him for nearly six years.

"Then, what happened to Rachel after her relationship with Darren was discovered by the public?" asked Fernando curiously.

"Rachel committed suicide in her apartment while pregnant with Darren's child. I guess, she was very frustrated and finally chose that path to end her life because Darren did not want to take responsibility for his actions. He even denied that the child carried by Rachel as his child," Jenny replied emotionally while remembering what had happened in the past.

"How do you know that Rachel was pregnant when she committed suicide?" Fernando asked back.

"We came to the funeral on behalf of Viona and we even did a live video call with her when Rachel was buried. We found out that she was pregnant from one of her relatives there," Amina replied quickly.

"What about Darren? Do you guys know the next news about that coward?" Fernando was now more curious about the bastard who had made the girl choose such a sad ending.

"That shameless man is still living his life as if nothing happened. He even continued his life as usual even though his relationship has been cut by the noble princess. The last news I heard he is running his own company but…"

"But what, Jenny?" Fernando was irritated because Jenny did not speak clearly.

Jenny then glared at Amina who was sitting next to Fernando as if she was asking for her approval. Soon, Jenny was seen smiling when she saw Amina nodding her head slowly.

"Hurry up and tell me Jenny!" shrieked Fernando in a high voice because he was impatient.

"Darren had come to Canada to look for Viona and even threatened her too," Jenny replied in a stammering voice.

Brak

Using his hands, Fernando hit the table that was in front of him with full force that surprised both Jenny and Amina.

"What did you just say? That man dared enough to threaten my wife? When did he do it and where he is now? How come I wasn't aware of this?" Fernando's anger was visible on his face.

"Calm down, Fernando. If you are angry like this, Jenny and I will not continue this story," said Amina while trying to calm Fernando who was getting out of control.

Fernando then seemed to close his eyes and took a deep breath while trying to control his emotions. He then drank the water in front of him and emptied it in one gulp.

"Darren chased Viona when both of you hadn't married yet. Darren accused Viona of being the mastermind behind all the tragedies that happened to him. Including the incident where his name was crossed out from the list of senator candidates," Amina said quietly.

"Did Viona tell you everything?" Fernando was trying to ask for a confirmation in a barely audible voice.

Amina and Jenny nodded their heads simultaneously in response to Fernando's words. Fernando fell silent when he already got the answer he wanted.

"Why didn't Viona tell me any of this?" Fernando said softly.

"Because she was very afraid of you back then," Jenny and Amina replied loudly at the same time.
