Scratches of Wound in Fiona's Heart
Can't Forget It

1 year later...

"It turns out you're here." Erland approached Steven who was seen sitting alone in front of the bar counter while drinking a drink in his right hand.

Steven turned his head lazily towards Erland who was sitting to his left without replying to his best friend, while Erland was seen bending his elbows and placing his hands on the table while staring at Steven.

"Where is Erick? Usually he sticks to you?" erland said when he did not see the existence of Erick around Steven.

"Still in the office" Steven replied accordingly. He put down his glass and looked straight ahead.

Erland tilted the corner of her left lip. "I heard you took over Mr. Boby's company. This time, what mistake did he make that you took over the company?"

After Fiona's departure, Steven turned into a terrifying person. He became workaholic, no compromise at all if anyone made a mistake or if anyone dared to offend him. During the day he will work hard, at night he will go home drunk, sometimes even unconscious.

Within a year, Steven managed to turn his company into a multinational company that is bigger than ever. Even his company managed to be included in the list of 20 best companies in the world that automastik make it into the list of 100 most influential people in the world version of Fo*bes magazine.

"He did not keep the promise of cooperation that we have agreed, besides, he has made a big loss to my company" said Steven.

"You're crazy" Erland said, shaking his head, "your business won't go bankrupt just because of him."

"But others will imitate him if I don't teach him a lesson." Steven looked back, "where is Wilson? I called earlier, but I didn't pick up" Steven said, switching the conversation.

Erland took a sip of the drink she had ordered earlier before answering Steven's question. "She just got home from the hospital and was on her way here." Erland leaned closer to Steven and said in a soft voice, "I heard your mother set you up with the only daughter of the Welington family."

Steven glanced at it with no interest in Erland. "You know where it's from?" stven asked before gulping down his drink again.

"This news is the hottest news in the media. Not only do I know, but everyone knows, even your news is out of the country. The matchmaking between the successors of HK Group and the only daughter of the Liang Group company became a current topic of tranding. Who do you think is not curious about the matchmaking between the 2 successors of the giant company that has gone worldwide. Everyone can't wait for your wedding" Erland said enthusiastically.

Steven shook the clear glass in his hand with a complicated look. "That's my mother's will" I'm Steven.

"I think Sonia is the most appropriate woman to accompany you. She is beautiful, smart, courteous, meek, good personality, great at managing the company, has broad insight, generous and has a high social spirit. A perfect personality like Sonia you won't find in any other woman" Erland said.

Steven pensively for a moment. I don't know what he was thinking after hearing Erland's words. "He's perfect, but not for me."

"Why? I think you guys are a great fit especially if he has liked you for a long time. Even after he came back here, he doesn't have a girlfriend yet, I guess he's waiting for you, Steve."

Seeing Steven just speechless, Erland again said, "Are you still expecting Fiona?" erland asked with a serious face.

Steven was still tight-lipped with his face down. "Steve, forget Fiona, she'll never come back here. If he did love you, he would have seen you a long time ago. Stop looking for him, maybe he's happy with someone else" Erland said, holding Steven's shoulder.

Steven clenched his hand holding his empty glass. "She's probably still mad at me for a stupid mistake I've made."

Erland exhaled a long breath. "Steve, I don't think he wants to come back to you because he already has a better life somewhere somewhere. Let him go, he doesn't want you anymore. You'll only hurt yourself if you keep waiting for him."

"I knew. Maybe he hates me so much that he doesn't want me to find him. I just wanted to apologize to him for ignoring and accusing him so cruelly."

After learning the truth about the accident involving Fiona and Gwen, Steven feels very sorry especially when he remembers his cold attitude towards Fiona, He is always haunted by guilt.

"Steve, you've realized your mistake is more than enough. Don't ruin your life again. I really can't justify doing it to Fiona, just that you can't ruin your life either. You're your mother's only hope right now."

Steven grabbed the bottle that was in front of him after a long silence. "Steve, hasn't Wilson banned you from drinking?" erland said as he caught Steven's wrist that was about to pour the drink into an empty glass, "do you want to go to the hospital again?" connect Erland.

Steven released the grip of Erland's hand with an indifferent face. "You better go home, don't bother me." Steven poured the drink into the glass and then gulped it down, he even looked like he was getting drunk.

Erland could only shake her head at Steven who was constantly unwilling to stop drinking. "I still have business, you just wait for Wilson. He'll be there soon."

Steven just nodded with minimal awareness. After Erland's departure, one beautiful woman approached her, even beginning to seduce her.

"Go, don't bother me!" remove Steven when the woman appears to start touching his hands.

"Let me accompany you."

Steven cast a horrible look at the woman until she shuddered in horror. "You'd better leave before my patience runs out."

"Miss, the more you go if you don't want to get in trouble. You should know who he is." Erick had just arrived when the woman approached Steven.

The woman turned to Erick, after which leaving quickly without saying anything, she did not dare to approach Steven anymore.

Of course the woman knew who Steven was, which is why she wanted to approach him drunk, it was possible that she could take advantage of the opportunity to become Steven's mistress, but he had to undo his intentions when he saw the ferocious face of Steven's assistant.

"Sir, we better go home, madam will be furious if you find out you're drunk again."

Erick approached Steven who was seen re-enacting his drink.

"Sir, you're drunk, we better go home." Erick approaches his boss intending to help Steven stand up, but is instantly teped off by Steven.

"Erland said, Fiona doesn't love me anymore so I have to let her go. Tell me, do I have to let go of it like Erland said?"

Erick thought for a moment before answering his boss's question. "I agree with Mr. Erland, you must forget about Miss Fiona" Erick replied quickly.

"I can't forget her, Rick, I love her so much. I've tried to forget it, but I can't." Steven turned his gaze while getting up from his seat when he saw Wilson coming.

"Wil, you're a doctor, you can help me, right? Give me the medicine so I can forget about Fiona" Steven said as he walked toward Wilson in an unbalanced manner.

"Why else?" Wilson catches Steven's body when he's about to collapse.

"Fiona... Fiona hates me, Wil, she....." Steven's remarks came to a halt when Steven spewed something on Wilson's shirt before he fell unconscious.

"Steve, wake up." Wilson patted Steven on the cheek many times when he saw Steven had fainted. "Damn, he's vomiting blood again. Wake up asshole, don't scare me" Wilson said in a high voice.

With a panicked face, Wilson turned to Erick. "Help me pick it up."

They both took Steven to Wilson hospital. Once there, Steven was dealt with at IGD and after he was treated, he was transferred to the treatment room.

Steven's mother is currently standing in front of her son's bed. He looked at Steven who had just opened his eyes. "You drunk again?"

Steven glanced at his mother at a glance, got up from his sleep and raised the back of his head so that he could sit as far as lying down.

"Ma, I want to rest."

"Steven, do you really want to die? You don't love your life anymore? Even if you die, Fiona will never come back to you, Steve. He's forgotten about you!" steven's mother said in a high voice.

He no longer knows how to advise his son who has been in the hospital many times after drinking alcohol in large quantities.

"It's possible he'll come when I die" Steven said spontaneously.

"STEPEN...! Watch your talk! Don't talk no, do you really want to see your mom suffer?"

Steven sighed. "I'm just kidding Ma, I'm not going to die."

"Can't you forget it, Steve? Fiona will never come back. You have to live your life as you did before you knew him."

Steven looked at his mother for a moment then said, "I want to fight for Fiona once again, Ma. Please help me find her."

Steven's mother let out a long sigh, trying to remain patient in the face of her stubborn son. "What if he doesn't want to come back to you after you find him? Perhaps, she was already happy, maybe even she was already married to someone else."

Steven thought for a moment. "I'll let him go if he doesn't want to come back to me. I'll accept the matchmaking you arranged with Sonia."

Steven's mother agreed. "alright. Mama will help you, but remember, if she doesn't want to come back to you, then you should forget about Fiona and get married to Sonia."

"alright. I agree."

"Tock... Geck..."

Steven and his mother looked over. "Wilson, please advise Steven to stop drinking, he always ignores my warnings" Steven's mother said as she watched Wilson walk into Steven's room.

"good. I will advise later."

"alright. Then I'll go first."

After seeing Steven's mother was out, Wilson immediately turned to Steven. "This is the last time I'll help you. If you still won't listen to me, I won't give you painkillers, even if you ask. Your liver will be severely damaged if you continue to drink large amounts of alcohol. You know, if you've been to the hospital many times because of this," Wilson said with a serious face.

"Can't I have a transplant if my heart is broken" Steven replied.

"Steve, even if a liver transplant is successful, you'll need to take a variety of medications to reduce the chance of complications. At least, you have to run 33 operations if you want to add to your life span for the next 30 years. It's also that if the donor you received matches you, otherwise it will end badly, so don't underestimate this disease."

"Yeah... Yes, I know," Steven cut quickly, "after all, my heart has not been broken. I'm still fine."

"This time only your stomach is injured, but if you still consume alcohol excessively, then, it will increase the risk of liver cirrhosis, liver cancer to pancreatitis especially if you have vomited blood several times. Before that happens, stop drinking alcohol. Don't torture yourself for a woman who doesn't love you."

Steven was silent with a face that was hard to read. "Think of your mother, you are her last hope. Remember Steve, this is the last time you go to the hospital. I really won't help you if this happens again, so listen to me."
