In fact, Fernando had a big question in his mind that he had not gotten the answer to from a long time ago from Viona. He was still wondering why she was so afraid of him. Even though when Zevanya was still alive, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary to Viona. He only once gave her a kiss shortly after he helped Viona from the man who tried to rape her. 

"May I ask you one thing, Babe?" Fernando asked softly as he touched Viona's face gently. 

Viona nodded slowly in response to Fernando's words without making a sound. 

"Actually, what makes you so afraid of me? Didn't I never cross my boundaries when you were Zeze's nanny?" Asked Fernando with a serious face. 

"Natasha," Viona replied quickly. 

"Natasha? What did that have to do with Natasha?" Fernando asked, confused. 

"The night before that fateful incident happened, Natasha had come to the kitchen where I was preparing supplies for Zevanya for the next morning. She threatened me to sell me to a brothel if I still dare to set foot in this house again. She gave me time until that afternoon. If until then I hadn't left this house, in the evening she would kidnap me and take me to a brothel," Viona replied, while looking down as she remembered the sad incident seven years ago. 

"What? Why didn't you report this to me, Vio?!" Fernando shouted in a rising voice. 

"I didn't dare to speak to you. Didn't you both were engaged and were getting married? Therefore, I just kept quiet, not daring to answer all her words, and it turned out that at that time Mrs. Lily listened to all my conversations with Natasha accidentally. That's why when I came home, after I managed to escape from the kidnapper who took me from Zevanya's school, she immediately asked me to leave this house. Mrs. Lily even gave me quite a lot of money at that time," Viona said in a trembling voice, remembering her last goodbye with Mrs. Lily in the secret passage, shortly after she returned home. 

Fernando was silent after he heard his wife's story. He didn't think that the real mastermind behind his separation from Viona was Natasha. The evil woman who had also masterminded the murder of her beloved daughter, Zevanya, a few years ago. 

"Didn't the maids see you when you came?" Asked Fernando again. He was curious about how Viona went away from him. 

Because he knew that at that time Viona was just a teenage girl who didn't have anyone. So he was doubtful that Viona went alone without anyone's help. 

"Nobody saw me because I was passing by the side road at that time. When I wanted to walk to the front, suddenly I saw Mrs. Lily running towards me and immediately took me into the secret passage door that was beside the fence," Viona replied with teary eyes. "I didn't even know at that time that Zevanya was dead." Viona added in a trembling voice holding back her tears. 

"Don't cry, Babe. What happened to Zevanya is God's destiny. I'm sure she is very happy where she is now, playing with friends her age up there, watching over us," Fernando said quietly as he hugged Viona tightly. 

Viona nodded slowly in Fernando's arms. Actually, she didn't want to leave Fernando because she had nowhere else to go to, but because she remembered Natasha's threat, she thought twice, especially back then Fernando had also accused her of causing Zevanya's death. Therefore, Viona ventured to go to England with the money given by Mrs. Lily and a little of her savings. She risked her life in a country with only the determination to live in peace. 

"Then after you went to college and became a doctor, why didn't you return right back to Canada, Babe?" Fernando asked quietly as he let go of Viona's hug. 

"Because at that time I thought that you would marry Natasha after Zeze died. I never thought that Natasha was the mastermind behind Zevanya's death. I don't want to bother you anymore," Viona answered honestly. 

"You stupid girl," Fernando said quickly while hugging Viona back tightly. 

"But why did you get engaged to Natasha's cousin, Nessie?" Viona asked suddenly. She recalled the night where she first met Fernando at his engagement party with Nessie. 

"It's actually part of my plan to approach and find out their next family plan. I'm not that crazy to want to have any relation with the criminal's family, who had killed my daughter, Babe," Fernando replied, kissing her forehead lovingly.

"Then, when did you start to like me?" Fernando asked, suddenly teasing her. 

Hearing his question made Viona unable to speak. Her face immediately flushed red as she was very embarrassed to answer the question from her husband. The blood on her body felt hotter than before, which meant that she was really tense right now, just like the night she gave Fernando her chastity after they got married. 

"I'm sleepy, let's just sleep," Viona said, changing the conversation while still hiding her face in Fernando's chest, as he was hugging her. 

"Answer my question earlier," Fernando replied with a big laugh teasing his wife. 

"Babe …!" 

"Okay, okay, Madam. Let's go up now," Fernando replied quickly interrupting her words. 

Not long after, he was carrying Viona in bridal style to their room on the second floor. Viona, who was still embarrassed, didn't dare to look at his face. She was still busy pressing her face to the chest of her very manly husband. 

Arriving in the room, Fernando lowered her onto the bed carefully, because his beloved wife was asleep. Seeing her sleeping again quickly made Fernando laugh. 

"You koala, you're asleep so fast," Fernando said grimly as he covered Viona's body slowly. 

Because he was sleepy, he finally closed his eyes. Today was a big day for him, where he found the secret pathway which hid meaningful memories for Viona. He also found out that it turned out that Viona had always loved him, seeing from her shy attitude that he recognized since back then. 

"If you dare to approach my wife again in the future, then I will finish you off myself, Natasha," Fernando said to himself as he closed his eyes while hugging Viona. 

He was surprised to find out that Natasha also intended to get rid of Viona seven years ago. Suddenly the automatic sleep light in their room went out and made the small light near their wedding photo turn on automatically. The room's dark atmosphere made Fernando and Viona sleep even more soundly. They sleep hugging each other as if afraid of losing her; it was a natural body language. 

In a park not far from the city, a luxury car was still parked beautifully, while the owner of the car seemed to have fallen asleep on top of the car, until he finally woke up when he felt the cold that was piercing into his bones and forced him to open his eyes. 

"Ah shit ... how could I fall asleep here?" Frank cursed in annoyance. His whole body felt cold. 

Quickly the handsome professor got into his expensive car to warm himself. He then started his car and prepared to leave the park to go home. When he was stopped at a red light, he looked at a car next to him where the car was full of laughter. At the back, there were two small children laughing together, while his father and mother were sitting on the front seats. A beautiful view full of warmth that he never got when he was a child, where he never went traveling with his parents and his brother, Fernando. A child in the car seemed to be waving his hand at Frank. Not long after, the younger brother followed what his brother was doing. As a result, the two children simultaneously waved at him, inevitably the professor waved back at them with a smile. 

As the light went green, Frank finally stepped on the gas pedal of his car and sped at full speed towards his apartment. The Toyota Fortuner next to his car also sped away. After driving nearly forty-five minutes, Frank's expensive sports car finally arrived in front of his apartment. When he was about to enter the underground parking lot, suddenly his cell phone rang and forced him to pick it up quickly. 

"Frank here." Frank said quietly as he picked up the phone, "What?! Okay, I'll be there right away," Frank shrieked with a rising voice. 

He then hung up the phone and just threw it on the seat next to him. The sports car drove back into the silence of the night where all the residents had started to rest quietly in their respective homes.
