The hospital could finally free from the reporters after Justin ordered his men to guard the gate. Justin immediately met the reporters who were waiting in front of the hospital alone.

He explained that Fernando would hold a press conference regarding the news of his engagement with Doctor Viona soon. After Justin gave the explanation, the reporters finally left the Global Bross hospital one by one.

After the reporters left, Justin chose to leave the hospital since he had to immediately report to Fernando. Shortly after Justin's car left the hospital, Professor Frank's car entered the hospital area. The young professor was actually on vacation but he finally gave in his vacation and decided to go to work when he found out that Viona decided to take a leave today.

He was so sure that he would be respected more if he was willing to replace Doctor Viona's working schedule that day.

Even though Professor Frank was not in a good mood after he found out about the news of the engagement of his brother and Viona, the girl he was aiming for. 

"Sorry I'm late," said Professor Frank greeting several doctors in the operating room.

"No problem, sir, you came at the right time, our meeting has not started yet," replied Doctor Laurel, the senior doctor in the surgical division who was also the head of the division.

"I brought you some water, sir," whispered Doctor Ammy as she handed Professor Frank a bottle of mineral water. 

"Thanks," Frank said silently to Doctor Ammy, he didn't speak loudly because the lights had been turned off and the projector started playing on the screen. 

They will watch videos related to patients who have been handled by the doctors for several days before conducting the joint evaluation. This kind of meeting was usually held to jointly evaluate things that have been done, either they were successful or not.

Thirty minutes later, the lights in the meeting room were turned on, the doctors involved in the operation immediately made presentations. When they finished, a question and answer session began.

Professor Frank who came last seemed very attentive to what was going on, he occasionally smiled and wrote down several notes on his journal. On the other side, you can see Doctor Ammy and Doctor Louisa were stealing glances at Professor Frank, it was no secret that the two doctors were competing for Professor Frank, the number one idol at Global Bross Hospital.

"Finally, my headache is now gone," said a doctor who was whispering to his fellow co-chiefs when he came out of the meeting room.

"Shut up, don't be so loud! Those professors could hear you," said another friend, pointing to the professors who were walking out of the room.

Behind the young doctor, Professor Frank was walking silently, a cold aura seemed to emerge around him. It made people around him to be more reluctant to either greet or talk.

Since his arrival at the hospital, he was known as a doctor who did not talk much. He rarely tried to talk to female doctors in the hospital except for Doctor Viona. That was why many people thought that this handsome professor had a relationship with Doctor Viona.

However, their gossip was immediately debunked when the news about the engagement of Doctor Viona and Fernando Gray Willan was published. 

The doctors immediately returned to their respective rooms to continue their work, including Professor Frank. Nurse Tina who was in charge to assist Professor Frank got nervous.

She knew that the young professor was in a bad mood. Nurse Tina suspected that it must have something to do with the news of Doctor Viona's engagement. 

In apartment number 3070 on the 20th floor, there was a cold war between Andrew and Lucia who just got married last night. They quarreled over differences of opinion. Lucia asked Andrew to go on a honeymoon to Los Angeles but Andrew refused it because he chose to work right away. 

"We just got married, Andrew!! Why do you have to go straight to work?" cried Lucia in a high tone.

"You should know that's not the answer," Andrew replied curtly, he was still annoyed with his marriage. 

Andrew could not wrap his head around the fact that Lucia's parents came to see his father and insisted that Andrew immediately marry Lucia within 3 days. Andrew, who was shocked in disbelief, could not refuse it because his father was Lucia's father's best friend since they were in elementary school. 

Finally, Andrew and Lucia's wedding took place, he thought his wedding party would only be held in a small church by inviting only a few close relatives. However, he was surprised when he headed to the reception venue at night.

They were getting married in a large building that could accommodate more than 1000 people. Without Andrew's knowledge, it seemed that Fernando also took part in the preparations for his wedding.

One thing that almost drove him crazy was Viona's arrival with Fernando, especially when Fernando introduced her as his fiancé.

Lucia immediately got up from her chair when she saw that Andrew was wearing his work clothes, complete with a gun that was tucked under Andrew's vest. 

"Do you really want to go to work today?" Lucia asked with teary eyes.

"Yes," Andrew replied without looking at Lucia. 

"I love you, Andrew, why are you doing this to me?" said Lucia while crying.

"You know the answer well without me having to answer it. Am I right, Lucia?" said Andrew quickly as he stared intently at Lucia's greyish eyes.

Lucia sobbed after hearing Andrew's answer, her now-husband. She sat on the cold floor lamenting Andrew's decision. 

"You are not a child anymore, Lucia! Don't you know that our relationship has not been good since a year ago? Why do you have to insist on marrying me?" Andrew asked coldly. 

"Because I love you, Andrew," replied Lucia haltingly.

"I love you too, Lucia but that was before! Before you betrayed my love and had an affair with Jordan, my best friend," said Andrew curtly.

Hearing Andrew's words made Lucia stunned, she knew that her mistake was so big it broke Andrew's trust. But she had absolutely no idea that Andrew still had not forgiven her even though the incident had long passed.

"You have achieved your goal of being able to marry me, Lucia. So now, don't try to control me anymore, you can have the status of Andrew Jordan Foy's wife but you won't be able to get my heart," Andrew said curtly as he threw a note in front of Lucia. 

Andrew then exited the new apartment he shared with his wife, Lucia. Andrew then headed for the elevator to get down and go to the office.

His heart was completely broken when he saw Viona with Fernando last night, even though at first he only wanted to take advantage of Viona but his heart was apparently already hooked and he fell in love with Viona.

After Andrew left the apartment, Lucia slowly grabbed the paper given by Andrew, her tears suddenly streamed down her beautiful face. Andrew apparently gave a marriage agreement between the two of them which contained things they could and couldn't do. Andrew also emphasized that they would sleep in separate beds. 

"I love you, Andrew, that's why I forced my father to ask you to immediately marry me," Lucia sobbed in her tears while hugging Andrew's notes. Her memory kept replaying Andrew's words over and over which hurt her heart even more. 

"I will try to make you love me again, Andrew," said Lucia softly, staring at the wedding ring curled on her ring finger.
