"So the point is that you gave up your child to be cared for by someone else," Fernando said with a raised tone.

Thump!

​​

Viona immediately stopped her steps when she heard Fernando's last words. She then turned to face Fernando, who was walking behind her. Not long after that, Viona smiled when she realized that her husband was angry at the moment.

"You're angry," Viona said quietly, pinching Fernando's cheek with exasperation.

Fernando was silent when his cheek was pinched her. Usually he would scream in pain if he was pinched like that by her. But this time, he had no expression because he still felt angry at Viona's request that she wanted to return to work after giving birth. He felt that what he gave Viona was still not enough to make his wife sit at home and take good care of their child while waiting for him to return from the office.

"Are you really mad at me, Babe?" Viona asked quietly as she pulled her hand away from Fernando's face.

He was silent and did not respond to Viona's words. From the look in his eyes, he was angry right now. Seeing he didn't respond to her words, Viona then turned around and walked away leaving him alone. She walked quickly left him standing in his place, and then decided to go home from the hospital, because she realized that Fernando did not chase her

"How selfish," Viona said softly while in the elevator.

When the elevator that took him reached the first floor, Viona then exited, but suddenly her steps stopped. She then walked towards the west wing door, instead of the main door where her car was. It was the door where employees used to enter the hospital. She walked towards the bus stop which was located not far from the hospital. She accelerated her pace when she crossed the main hospital grounds to avoid the driver, who was standing beside the car waiting for her arrival.

Luckily when Viona arrived at the stop, a bus had just arrived. Without thinking, she immediately got on the bus without knowing the destination of the bus. All that she had in mind right now was to get some fresh air.

On the bus, Viona started to feel sleepy. She then changed her seat to the back seat where it was the most comfortable seat to sleep. She immediately closed her eyes when she sat on her favorite seat, after tidying up her bag properly. Viona then rest while waiting for the next stop.

Fernando, who was still angry, didn't seem to say anything when Justin and Harry gave the report about the company to him at the hospital. His mind was still thinking about Viona's previous words that she wanted to return to work after giving birth.

"Where are you going, Sir?" Justin asked confused when he saw Fernando get up from his chair suddenly.

"Let's just go to the office, I'm not comfortable in the hospital discussing important things like this." Fernando replied slowly, his mood was really bad right now.

"Yes, Sir," replied Justin and Harry in unison.

They then tidied up the files they had taken out beforehand to go back to the office. When Fernando was wearing his coat, suddenly the door to his room opened and William came in with two cans of soda.

"Where are you going? " asked William in confusion when he realized Fernando was wearing his coat.

"Back to the office, I'm not comfortable in the hospital," Fernando replied briefly.

"Viona??" William asked again.

Fernando was silent when William guessed correctly on what had made him in a bad mood. He then walked out the door past William, who was still standing in front of the door.

"Why you bastard!! Why don't you answer me when I ask you!" William scolded irritably.

"I'm not in the mood, Will ..."

"Tell me what's wrong? What made you fight again?!" asked William, interrupting Fernando.

"Viona ... she said she wanted to return to work after giving birth. I could not understand what she's thinking. Isn't it enough what I have been giving her so far? Then why does she have to return to work?! When she became a doctor in this hospital, I immediately bought the shares then what else did she want to look for? Is it money? Is my money not enough that she has to return to work?!" Fernando replied half screaming, as he couldn't control his emotions right now.

William was silent upon hearing his words. He knew that Fernando was really angry right now.

"If she returns to work, then who will look after my son, Will? I don't want my child to be cared for by other people," Fernando said softly. "I don't want my child to get love from other people Will ... he has to be happy, he has to get the full attention of his mother, not from other people, Will ..." Fernando stuttered.

Remembering Viona's words brought him back to his childhood with Frank, who were both raised by a maid. Growing up without parental love made his life feel imperfect, he didn't want his son to experience what he had experienced back then.

William, who understood the direction of Fernando's conversation, could only be silent. He knew that Fernando just wanted his son to have a happy childhood.

"Talk to her slowly. Tell her with a cold head that you do not want your child to be cared for by other people. I'm sure she will understand. She's a smart woman, Fernando," William said quietly as he tapped Fernando on the shoulder slowly.

"I'm afraid my son will be unhappy ... I don't want my son to experience a sad life like me, Will," Fernando replied in a barely audible voice.

"I know, Fernando. Therefore, talk to your wife nicely. I'm sure she will understand," said William, encouraging his friend.

Fernando nodded his head softly in response to the words of William, his friend. He then took a deep breath to calm himself. Without them knowing, there were a pair of eyes with curled lashes that saw and heard what was happening. The owner of the beautiful eyes smiled. She now had a new target to launch her action.

"Your happiness should be with me, Sir ...."
