The noise emerging from the front door made Viona stop her steps towards her private room, the single most dominant voice was heard very clearly in Viona's ears.

When going to the front door, she suddenly saw several people pushing a bed with a patient on it, walking along the patient was a handsome man wearing a police uniform screaming for a doctor.

"Andrew!" Viona said softly, she couldn't move at all after realizing that she ran into Andrew while at work with her current situation.

Viona wanted to run as far as possible to avoid the man who was once close to her but she was on duty and Viona didn't have the heart to do it. With a full sense of responsibility, Viona approached the patient's bed where Andrew was pushing it to the emergency room.

"The patient got into an accident," said Andrew quietly to Viona.

"All right, thank you, Sir, I will bring it inside," Viona replied in response to Andrew's words with a thin smile.

Andrew then stopped his footsteps in front of the operating room where Viona had taken the hit-and-run victim who was brought by Andrew earlier with the four nurses. Several other policemen began arriving at the hospital carrying a man who was accused of being the hit-and-run suspect. He was successfully saved by the police after almost being killed by the people who had managed to catch him after he hit a student who was now under Viona's care.

Shortly thereafter, several people came to the hospital while crying and shouting the name of the girl of the hit-and-run incident, Andrew and some of his men were seen trying to calm the victim's family who had just arrived.

"Andrew!!!" Doctor Cecilia called Andrew who was busy in front of the emergency room since he was trying to protect the hit-and-run suspect who was now being treated by another young doctor.

"Hi Cecil," Andrew answered quietly as he raised one hand in the air. Doctor Cecilia excitedly walked towards where Andrew was with a smile spreading across her beautiful face.

"What kind of case are you currently handling?" asked Doctor Cecilia half whispering to Andrew.

"A student who became a victim of another hit and run," Andrew replied with a smile.

"Oh my, so sorry to hear that, and how's the patient's condition now?" replied Doctor Cecilia shockingly.

"Doctor Viona is now treating the patient inside the emergency room," Andrew said quietly, pointing to the operating room where Viona was trying to save the young girl's life.

"Oh, thank goodness if the patient has been handled by Doctor Viona, she is the best doctor in this hospital!" Doctor Cecilia said while praising Viona. Andrew smiled after hearing what Cecilia just said, he knew Viona's ability was above average doctors of her age.

Few moments later, Andrew left Doctor Cecilia when his subordinates called him because the victim's family kept forcing to meet the hit-and-run perpetrator. From behind the glass, Doctor Cecilia could see clearly how Andrew seemed to persuade the victim's family to not get carried away with their anger, a smile appeared on the doctor's face. Cecilia saw Andrew's dignity in front of everyone.

"I'm lucky to know you, Andrew," Doctor Cecilia said softly.

Not long after that, Andrew was seen coming out of the emergency room and walking slowly to the operating room where Viona was still inside. It seemed that the operation was still ongoing. The victim's family, who had just vented their anger on the suspect of the incident, looked very shocked because they found out that the suspect was driving under the influence of alcohol.

They then sat in front of the operating room waiting for their beloved daughter to finish undergoing surgery with a sad and emotional feeling.

The operating room door opened from inside and Viona came out, she was still wearing her green surgical gown with several nurses. The victim's family, especially the mother, immediately approached Viona after they saw her got out of the room.

"How is Cheris' condition Doc? She's my daughter,"

"Is she alright, Doc?

"She is only fifteen years old Doc, please save my daughter Doc,"

"Cheris also aspires to be a doctor like you, please save my daughter Doc hu hu hu,"

The patient's mother asked Viona way too many questions repeatedly and Viona could only smile since she had no chance to answer them one by one.

"Ma'am, you need to calm down. How would the doctor be able to answer your questions if you keep attacking her with hundreds of other questions like that? " Andrew said quietly, trying to calm the patient's mother after seeing the confused expression on Viona's face.

Viona was smiling slightly after hearing what Andrew said to the patient's mother, she nodded her head slowly to show that she was grateful for his help. Andrew only smiled back to Viona since he knew it was also his responsibility to calm the victim's family.

Viona then wiped the woman's tears slowly using her hand, she then invited the patient's mother to sit in a chair in front of the operating room.

"What's your name?" asked Viona to the middle-aged woman who sat in front of her.

"My name is Isabel, Doc," The patient's mother said her name slowly.

"Mrs. Isabel should thank Mr. Andrew because if Mr. Andrew did not quickly bring Cheris here, I might not be able to save her," said Viona, pointing at Andrew.

"What do you mean, Doc?" Mrs. Isabel was now confused.

"Cheris operation went well, right now we only have to wait for her to wake up from the influence of the anesthetic," Viona replied softly.

"Oh God ....thank you so much doctor .... !!!!!" shouted Mrs. Isabel while hugging Viona tightly, at this point she was crying hysterically.

"I'm just doing my job, ma'am," Viona replied briefly, patting the back of Mrs. Isabel slowly.

Andrew only smiled at the sight in front of him, his admiration for Viona grew even larger. Shortly afterward, Mrs. Isabel was seen releasing her hug to Viona, because she was asking to be released. Her chest felt too tight to be hugged like that by Mrs. Isabel.

"All of you can take turns in seeing Cheris' condition and it shouldn't take more than five minutes for Cheris' sake," Viona tried to warn the victim's family and to remind Mrs. Isabel by giving them this warning repeatedly.

"Okay, Doc. I will obey the doctor's instructions," Mrs. Isabel answered slowly, she was getting ready to leave Viona and walked toward the ICU room where Cheris had been transferred to receive intensive treatment. When almost reaching the ICU door, Mrs. Isabel's steps suddenly stopped because she heard Viona's small cough which gave her a code to thank Andrew as well. Mrs. Isabel then went straight to where Andrew was standing.

Mrs. Isabel quickly hugged Andrew tightly, just as she had hugged Viona before. She thanked Andrew so many times that it made Andrew feel uncomfortable. Soon, Mrs. Isabel released her hug to Andrew and then continued her steps back to the ICU.

Viona nodded slowly when Mrs. Isabel passed her in front of the ICU when she was about to enter the place where Cheris was being treated.

"Thank you, Vio," said Andrew, who suddenly stood beside Viona.

"This is my job as a doctor, Andrew. You don't have to thank me," Viona answered quietly.

"I'm not talking about that, thank you for keep telling Mrs. Isabel that I brought her daughter here," said Andrew briefly.

"Isn't it important to let her know who's the real hero who had saved her daughter?" Viona said, holding back her laughter.

Andrew was silent, he couldn't answer Viona's words anymore, he still felt strange facing her while talking casually like this after their last meeting at Andrew's wedding.

"Okay then. Please, excuse me, I have to make a report," Viona said quietly as she wiped the sweat out of her forehead.

"Are you sick, Vio? Your face is pale!!" asked Andrew while being a little panicked when he realized Viona's pale face showing that she wasn't in great condition.

"This is just the effect after the operation, I'll get better after taking a rest," Viona replied with a forced smile.

"See you then, Andrew," Viona said goodbye to Andrew, she then walked slowly to her private room, still wiping the sweat on her forehead.

Andrew could only stand still after watching Viona leave, he wanted to talk a lot to Viona and explain the real incident behind his marriage to Lucia which had been canceled by the court a few days ago. After Viona was out of sight, Andrew then walked away leaving the room and joined his men in the ER to process the suspect according to the applicable law.

Without Viona and Andrew realizing it, a pair of red eyes were staring angrily at the two of them when they were standing in front of the ICU. The roar of his breath was heard racing quickly because of the explosive emotions in his chest.
