Chased By My Demon CEO

Seeing Jessica thrown and fell to the asphalt made everyone around the scene immediately scatter, including the doctors who were going home. However, Viona couldn't do anything, as her legs felt weak and could not hold her body weight until she slumped down on the grass.

"Doctor, are you okay?" asked Nurse Tina, who had been standing not far from Viona.

"Yes, I'm good, I'm fine," Viona replied in a stammer because she was still in shock when she saw Jessica who was desperate.

Nurse Tina slowly helped Viona to stand up. She then supported Viona to sit on a chair at the bus stop. They watched as the male nurses lifted Jessica's bloodied body to the hospital again.

Viona could see how Frank was running after Jessica when she was taken in, while the executives, including Fernando, just stood by watching them. 

Viona hid behind Nurse Tina's body when she realized that Fernando was looking at her.

"Hurry and help me get on the bus, Tina," Viona whispered softly when she saw that a bus was already coming towards the bus stop.

"Okay, Doc," replied Nurse Tina, helping her walk to get on the oncoming bus.

Viona could see clearly from the bus when Fernando ran after her. She let out a long sigh when finally Fernando stopped running when he was approached by the hospital officials who had been standing with him.

"Doc, this is not a bus to your apartment," said Nurse Tina, reminding Viona.

"I know, it's okay, I want to go somewhere for a while," Viona replied, trying to cover Jessica's claw wound on her right arm.

"Okay then, Doc," said Nurse Tina with a smile.

Viona nodded slowly then tried to close her eyes and remembered the incident that had just happened.

"Am I okay to leave, Tina?" Viona asked softly.

"What do you mean, Doc?" asked Nurse Tina confused.

"You saw earlier how the patient ran towards the passing bus," Viona replied, opening her eyes.

"She ran on her own accord. After all, the patient was going to be transferred to a mental hospital, so I don't think this has anything to do with you, Doc," said Nurse Tina, trying to calm Viona.

"A mental hospital?" asked Viona in shock.

Nurse Tina nodded slowly. Then she told Viona what she had known during Viona's break. Even Professor Frank, who was considered the guardian of the patient, had agreed to transfer her to a mental hospital.

Hearing Nurse Tina's words made Viona's eyes teary. There was a pain in her chest, but she didn't know why. When tears fell from her eyes, Viona immediately wiped her face, so that it was not seen by Nurse Tina, her assistant.

"I'm getting off here, okay?" said Viona, shaking as she tried to hold back tears.

"Are you sure, Doc?" asked Nurse Tina innocently.

Viona nodded slowly, then got up from her seat and walked towards the exit, and pressed the yellow button to stop the bus.

Shortly after she had pressed the button, the bus driver stopped and opened the door to where Viona was standing. Viona turned to look at Nurse Tina with a waving hand, and then quickly got off. 

Nurse Tina waved back at her from the bus, which made Viona smile. Viona then sat at the bus stop, the tears that she had been holding finally came pouring out.

She cried at a quiet bus stop where no one would watch. Indeed, the bus stop where she got off was on a long stretch of road away from any housing complex. Viona cried and let out all her emotions without anyone looking.

BEEP.

The sound of her cell phone vibrating made Viona stop her crying. She slowly reached into her bag and took her cell phone out. It turned out to be an incoming call from Andrew.

"Hellooooo ...." Viona answered with a sob, accepting Andrew's call.

"Hey Viii ... uh, wait, are you crying??" Andrew asked in a raised voice on the end of the phone.

"Andrew, I ..." Viona said haltingly because she couldn't speak.

"Okay, I'll come to your place now!! Turn off the phone call then share your location with me now. I'll be there," shouted Andrew, panicked.

Viona turned off Andrew's call. She then sent her location to Andrew via an application on her smartphone. She wiped the tears that rolled down on her face.

She didn't want to make Andrew see her in a messy state like this now. Not long after, Andrew's patrol car came to the bus stop where Viona was still sitting with her head down. After the car stopped, Andrew came out with a bottle of cold mineral water.

"Drink this, Vio," said Andrew, handing the bottle to Viona.

Viona lifted her face and smiled when she saw Andrew was standing in front of her. Viona slowly accepted Andrew's bottle of drink, then drank the water.

"Thank you and sorry to bother you," Viona said softly, as she wiped her mouth.

"I just brought you mineral water, no need to say things like that. I don't like that, Vio," said Andrew, sitting next to Viona.

Viona smiled and drank some more water when suddenly her cell phone rang again. She quickly grabbed the cell phone on her lap. Viona's heart beat faster when she read the message that just came in. She stood up and pulled Andrew's hand forcibly, which shocked him.

"Relax, Vio ... Relax," said Andrew, standing up.

"Let's go to the hospital, I was summoned to return to the hospital," Viona said in a panic.

"Yeah, yeah, come on, get in the car," Andrew replied, half running to the patrol car.

Viona quickly opened the car door and immediately sat next to the driver's seat where Andrew would sit. After he fastened his seat belt, Andrew immediately drove his car to the hospital as Viona's request.

On the way there, Viona kept receiving incoming calls from Fernando, which made Andrew angry. He really wanted to grab Viona's cell phone and talk to Fernando directly, but he held it back because he didn't want to create more problems for Viona.

After driving for almost thirty minutes, Andrew's car finally arrived in front of the hospital where he usually dropped Viona off as usual. As soon as the car stopped, Viona immediately got off without speaking to Andrew, which made Andrew feel even more suspicious.

It was so unlike her to act like that. While watching her Viona entering the hospital, the hood of his car was suddenly hit by someone, which surprised him. 

"Why are you here?" Andrew asked the two young policemen who had hit the hood of his car.

"We are investigating a suicide case by crashing into a car, sir," replied one of them, who turned out to be Andrew's subordinates.

"Suicide? Crashing into a car? What does it mean?" asked Andrew in confusion.

The two policemen then explained in detail to Andrew so that Andrew finally realized why Viona had asked him to drive her back to the hospital.

Andrew then got out of his car and chose to join his men to help the investigation, because he was worried about Viona, who according to his subordinates was included as a key witness because she saw the incident.

"Ah, Doctor, you finally came," said a nurse welcoming Viona who walked hastily toward the meeting room.

"What's wrong?" asked Viona silently.

"You should go in, Doctor," replied the nurse quietly.

Viona stopped in front of the meeting room and tried to regulate her breathing, which was still irregular due to running. After being able to control herself, Viona opened the door to the meeting room where several hospital officials and the police were waiting for her to ask for her information.

Seeing Viona had come, Fernando immediately approached her. Fernando grabbed Viona's right hand which was injured due to Jessica's action, and hadn't been treated, Fernando asked a nurse to treat Viona's wound.

"Did she die?" Viona asked Fernando, who was standing beside her.

"Yes, the wound on her head was bad," said Fernando coldly.

"Don't blame yourself!! She hit the bus herself, so you have nothing to do with her death, Vio," Fernando added quickly when he realized Viona was going to cry.

Viona nodded slowly then lifted her face upwards so that her tears wouldn't fall. She tried to be strong because it was her turn to be questioned by the police.

Fernando took Viona's hand as she walked to the chair where the police were. Jessica's case was considered suicide because there was no evidence of violence on Jessica's body, and because of that, the police asked for testimony from witnesses who happened to be at the scene of the case.

When Fernando put his hand on Viona's waist, from behind the door Professor Frank glared intently at his older brother, with a look full of anger.

He didn't want Viona to be touched by his brother. Even though he was still a little sad over Jessica's death, his jealousy towards Fernando was apparently bigger.

"Now that Jessica is dead, then it will be easier to get you, Viona ..." said Professor Frank quietly
