Viona's face turned red because of Fernando who kept teasing her, she now regretted her actions because she slipped her tongue in front of Fernando. To hide her embarrassment, Viona immediately pulled the blanket and hid her face behind the thick blanket to avoid Fernando's gaze.

Seeing Viona's behavior made Fernando smile, he knew that his wife was embarrassed, so Fernando hugged Viona who was hiding behind a blanket lovingly.

​​

"I'm happy to know you love me too, Babe," said Fernando quietly.

Inside the thick blanket, Viona only nodded softly in response to Fernando's words, she then hugged Fernando's body tightly to listen to his soothing heartbeat.

Not long after that, Viona finally fell asleep in that position, realizing that Viona was not moving and making a sound again. Fernando then opened the blanket and smiled when he saw that Viona was asleep.

Because the air was getting cold, Fernando finally carried Viona into the room and he lowered Viona onto the big bed gently. Fernando finally closed his eyes beside Viona because he was also sleepy.

Fernando smiled in his sleep because he was relieved to know that Viona also loved him, he fondly hugged her body tighter.

Global Bross Hospital,

Cecilia, who replaced Viona's job, seemed to have a little trouble because some patients refused to get her treatment and asked Viona to treat them instead. Viona's popularity was already very well known among the patients she had worked with before.

Even the patient's family knew Viona very well. Therefore, when they found out that the surgeon who handled them was replaced, the patients protested and asked Viona to return to work.

Because there was a noise from Viona's practice room, several doctors and nurses approached the practice room and they were shocked when they saw many patients asking for Viona to treat them instead of accepting Cecilia.

William, whose room was not far from the Viona practice room and it was now used by Cecilia, also came because he was annoyed by the noise.

William's smile widened when he knew the reason behind the patient's protest. Feeling sorry for Cecilia, William finally walked over to her after breaking through the crowd of screaming patients.

"I'm sorry Sir and Madam, is there anything that I can help you with?" asked William with a friendly smile.

"I refuse to be treated by this doctor and let Viona come back to her position because the only person who deserves to occupy this room is Viona, our best surgeon," answered a middle-aged woman emotionally.

"Madam, let me introduce myself first, I'm William Alexander, the new head of the surgical division. The reason why Cecilia replaced Viona is because of her current condition that makes it impossible for her to work full-time at the hospital as the previous months.

However, you don't have to worry because Viona is still working in this hospital. It's just that her practice schedule has been reduced from five times a week to only twice a week on Wednesday and Friday," said William, trying to explain calmly.

"Why does Viona have to reduce her practice schedule? I thought she had no problem working with her older schedule in this hospital?" now, a middle-aged man was the one who was asking William.

"As you all may know that Viona is the wife of a man who is quite influential in this city, seeing her still choosing to work as a doctor is a very amazing thing. Considering that her husband was not an ordinary person, Viona didn't lack in anything, especially in the financial aspect.

Since she has high loyalty as a doctor she still wants to continue working in this hospital. And the main reason why she is currently reducing her practice hours is solely for the sake of her health and the baby she is carrying," William answered with a smile.

"Is Doctor Viona pregnant?" shrieked an old woman who was Viona's regular patient in shock.

"Yes, Madam, Viona is currently pregnant and her pregnancy is only five weeks old. There is no major problem with her current condition, but it gets difficult because this is her first pregnancy and she is experiencing quite a severe morning sickness. That's why we decided to reduce her practice hours for the next few months.

She was worried that if she continued to force herself to work in such conditions, her service to patients would not be as good as she wanted it. Therefore, Viona asked Cecilia to replace her for the time being, I hope Sir and Madam can understand the current situation and her decision," said William kindly.

"But, does this doctor have the same abilities as Viona?" asked a young woman, pointing her finger at Cecilia who was standing next to William.

William smiled at the words of the woman, he then took a deep breath and began to tell why Cecilia was chosen to replace Viona for the next few months.

After hearing William's explanation, the patients who were standing in front of Viona's practice room were seen nodding their heads slowly to signal that they fully understand William's explanation.

"So, there is no need to doubt her ability because Cecilia is the best young doctor who graduated from a well-known medical school in New York before she took a specialist surgeon position in Canada. Therefore, I hope that Cecilia's presence will be well received by all of you who were previously being treated by Viona since her appointment was a direct recommendation from Viona.

She had observed Cecilia's working experiences and level of expertise. It is very unlikely that Viona would recommend someone who does not have qualified abilities," said William, closing his explanation.

"Oh, so, Cecilia is chosen directly by Viona?"

"Well, then we have no problem being treated by her."

"That's right, I don't think Viona will choose her replacement carelessly so I think Cecilia can be relied on at this time."

"Well then, Sir and Madam can all sit down here to wait being called by Cecilia before entering the practice room. I can guarantee that Cecilia is also able to provide the best service like Viona," continued William with a friendly smile.

The patients and their families then sat back on their chairs while waiting their turn to be called by Cecilia.

Chloe finally took a deep breath when the angry patients could be comforted by William. Meanwhile, Cecilia seemed to be thankful for the help given by William.

Not long after, the patients one by one were called by Chloe to come into the room to perform an examination, after the atmosphere became more conducive, William returned to his room calmly.

"You are really lucky that Fernando has a wife like Viona who is not only beautiful but smart and has a sincere heart," said William to himself.

William was amazed at the way Viona worked, which was able to capture the hearts of her patients like that. It was such a rare case that patients would be so fond of being handled by the same doctor.

After William returned to his room, the atmosphere in front of Viona's practice room was getting calmer, the patients looked obediently waiting for their turn to be called by Chloe who was on shift in front of the room where Cecilia was doing an examination inside.

"Ahhh, it's finally over," said Chloe as she sat in the chair after the last patient finished being examined by Cecilia.

"Yes, today is such a long and tiring day," replied Cecilia with a forced smile.

"You are right, for some reason today I feel even more tired than the day before," Chloe replied while massaging her sore shoulders.

Cecilia could only smile wryly seeing what Chloe was doing, she also recalled the time when the patients were angry with her and asked her to come out of Viona's room which she was currently using. Cecilia closed her eyes, recalling what the patients had said.

"Are you that good that many patients are so loyal to you?" Cecilia said quietly as she looked at Viona's picture that hung on the wall.
