Viona's heart beat faster than usual, her legs suddenly weakened when she saw the bride and groom dance tenderly in front of the guests.

"Surprise ....." whispered Fernando right in Viona's ear.

Viona stood petrified to see Andrew, wearing a tuxedo and dancing with a beautiful woman to a romantic song sung by a woman to a piano accompaniment.

"Hey, be careful!!" shouted Fernando frantically when he saw Viona stagger.

"I'm sorry ..... can you help me out of this room? My chest is tight," Viona said haltingly, her face suddenly flushed after finding out whose wedding party she was attending.

"As your wish," answered Fernando with a triumphant smile.

Fernando slowly held Viona's cold hand to get out of the crowd of other guests. When he was about to walk towards the door, suddenly the MC announced 

"Wow, apparently we have a special guest ... Please give a round of applause to Mr. Fernando Gray Willan," said the MC with a loud voice, which stopped Fernando's steps.

Clap

Clap 

Clap 

Hearing the words of the MC, the other guests immediately applauded simultaneously and the spotlight fell on Fernando and Viona who were standing there.

The guests who were around Fernando immediately tried to reach out to shake hands with the rich businessman until finally Fernando was overwhelmed that some of his personal bodyguards came out to guard him.

"Please come up here, sir," said the female MC, asking Fernando to get on the dance floor.

"Come on, sir, please."

"Please Mr. Willan." 

"Give way so that Mr. Willan can go up the dance floor." 

There were voices of other guests after the MC asked Fernando to go up to the dance floor. But when Fernando was about to walk to the dance floor, suddenly Viona grabbed his hand tighter.

"No, please," said Viona quietly.

"Everything is fine, trust me," whispered Fernando softly, with a smile.

Viona just shook her head softly in response to Fernando's words. She didn't have enough guts to look at Andrew up close. When Viona tried to get her hand off of Fernando's grip, suddenly she felt a cold object gripped by Fernando.

"What is this? "Viona asked Fernando softly, because her hand was held by Fernando, she could not feel what was in his hand.

"Shut up, sweety "Fernando replied with a smile.

Viona, who couldn't go anywhere, finally could only follow Fernando's steps to the dance floor where the couple was. It was as if Viona's heart was about to jump out of her chest cavity due to its pounding. She tried to hold back her tears so as not to fall.

"You're evil, Andrew," said Viona inwardly, as she managed to get closer to where Andrew was standing. 

"Welcome Mr. Fernando," said Lucia's father, Thomas Bran, who had met Fernando twice.

"Thank you for coming, sir," added Mrs. Claudia Bran, who is Lucia Bran's mother, full of gratitude.

"Surely I will come because the groom is a good friend of my fiancée, Doctor Viona," said Fernando, lifting Viona's hand up, kissing the back of her hand, and on her finger, he had put a very beautiful diamond ring.

Viona, who did not realize that Fernando had put a ring on her ring finger, looked as shocked as the guests who had come to Andrew and Lucia's wedding, while Fernando only winked at Viona with a smile full of victory.

"So this is your fiancée, Sir?" Asked the MC to Fernando.

"This is my future wife, to be precise," said Fernando with a friendly smile.

"May I know your name, Miss?" Asked the MC to Viona while holding out his hand.

"My name is Viona," Viona replied with a friendly smile.

"Wow, it's amazing that at the wedding of one of the best policemen in town, we received such surprising news. Apparently, Mr. Fernando already has a beautiful fiancee. I personally would like to congratulate you, Sir," said the MC, shaking Fernando's hand warmly, while Fernando's other hand was already wrapped around Viona's waist.

Suddenly the other guests also congratulated Fernando and Viona, as did the parents of the bride who were also happy for them. Meanwhile, Andrew's face seemed to be holding back his anger, as he tried to smile beside Lucia, his wife. 

Meanwhile, Viona could only smile and accept the wishes from the guests and the parents of the bride and groom. Viona's eyes accidentally saw Andrew's facial expression, which made her fake smile suddenly disappear from her beautiful face.

Fernando, who noticed the change in Viona's attitude, immediately tightened his hug on Viona's body.

"You are mine, Viona!!" whispered Fernando in a rising tone.

"I know, let's go home," said Viona pleadingly.

"Okay," replied Fernando, smiling triumphantly.

Fernando then said goodbye to the host. He took Viona to greet the parents of the bride and groom, including the bride herself. Andrew glared at the embarrassed Viona.

"Congratulations on a new life, Mr. Policeman, I hope you're blessed with cute children soon and we hope to catch up with you as soon as possible," Fernando said to Andrew while shaking his hand.

"Of course sir, I hope you both will follow us soon," said Lucia, clinging to Andrew's arm.

Fernando then removed his hand from Andrew then took Viona to leave, his hand wrapped around Viona's waist all the time. Andrew didn't take his eyes off Fernando and Viona until they were finally out of sight.

"You owe me an explanation, Vio," Andrew said to himself.

Arriving outside the building, Fernando immediately got into his car with Viona, who had not spoken much since earlier. Viona leaned back on the seat while staring outside to see the night view of the city without speaking.

<In the gym in Frank's apartment>

Frank, who had just done a night exercise, was disturbed when he saw the girls in the gym gossiping near the exit.

"Oh, why does this handsome widower already have a future wife?" 

"I've lost hope of becoming a wealthy woman" 

"No wonder Fernando was captivated by this doctor. She's so beautiful."

Frank, who heard his brother's name, suddenly became curious. He walked over to the girls in front of the gym exit.

"What are you guys talking about?" Frank asked curiously.

"Oh, this is the latest gossip," replied a red-haired girl. 

"That's only a cheap rumor, why are you this noisy?" Frank fiercely said as he walked out while carrying his gym bag.

"What cheap rumors?! The news about the engagement of Fernando Gray Willan and Doctor Viona has become a trending topic tonight," said the black woman, replying to Frank's words. 

Thump. Frank halted when he heard the names of Fernando and Viona mentioned simultaneously. "Try saying that again!!!" Frank shouted in a rising voice.
