That night Gavin decided to go home with Dodo. He can't have Dodo sleeping in the hospital. Gavin will take Dodo to his mother's funeral tomorrow. Just meet that veiled woman. Only Alex and Sophia accompanied Mr. Ferdi. Alex sleeps on the couch while Sophia sleeps in the bed. Mr. Ferdi woke up. Looking around. He just remembered that he was in the hospital after the accident.
"My feet, now I can't walk" said Mr. Ferdi. He tried to move his legs but was in pain.
"Aw ...," said Mr. Ferdi. He wants to wake up. Take a drink on the drawer near his bed. But his feet were hard to move. It hurts so much. Mr. Ferdi tried to get up and forced himself, until almost fell down, fortunately Alex immediately caught his body.
"Well, what's the fuck you want?" ask Alex.
"Deliver! I'm not your father, why are you good to me?" asked Mr. Ferdi while prying Alex's hand off his body.
"Maybe my father is not my father, but from childhood I know you as my father, I will still consider you my father," replied Alex still holding the body of Mr. Ferdi who almost fell.
Mr. Ferdi was silent. Never cared about Alex, she never even loved him as her son. Mr. Ferdi only considers Alex a money-making tool from Grandpa David.
"I've always been mean to you, never been a good father, why do you care?" said Mr. Ferdi.
"For me dad is still dad, whether we have a blood relationship or not" Alex said.
Mr. Ferdi fell silent again. It turns out that the truth about Mr. Ferdi not his father Alex hasn't changed Alex's attitude towards him. He still considers her his father despite not having any blood relations though.
"Dad want a drink?" ask Alex.
Mr. Ferdi nodded.
"Yes, I'm back lying down, Alex will get you a drink" Alex said.
Mr. Ferdi nodded. Alex helps Mr. Ferdi lie down comfortably. Then take the drinking water over the drawer. Give it to Mr. Ferdi. Alex is too
help Mr. Ferdi eat.
"Well, abisin is a little bit more," said Alex as he fed Mr. Ferdi.
"Nice, nothing else?" ask Mr. Ferdi.
"Father can't eat anything else, eat this first" Alex replied.
Sophia who heard Alex and Mr. Ferdi's conversation woke up. He got up, walked over to Alex and Mr. Ferdi.
"Daddy want to peel the fruit?" ask Sophia.
"What fruit?" ask Mr. Ferdi.
"A grapefruit, apple or wine?" ask Sophia.
"Jeruk aja," replied Mr. Ferdi.
Alex and Sophia serve Mr. Ferdi a meal. Even though they knew Mr. Ferdi had caused trouble, he was still a member of the family.
Mr. Ferdi saw Alex and Sophia care so much about him. He has done evil to them. Mr. Ferdi felt bad.
"Lex, I'm sorry Dad, you helped me, but I made it difficult for you" said Mr. Ferdi.
"Yes, well, I tell the family, until whenever I have to take care of each other and love each other," said Alex.
"You've changed a lot, Sophia has made you much better" said Mr. Ferdi.
Alex looked towards Sophia who was sitting on the sofa peeling oranges for Mr. Ferdi. Her father was right, Sophia had changed it for the better. Even now Alex is very happy there is Sophia by his side.
"Yes Well, with her love and sincerity, Sophia has changed me like this" Alex replied.
"You're lucky to find a precious pearl, take good care of her" said Mr. Ferdi.
"Surely," replied Alex.
Adzan magrib's voice. After eating Alex and Praying in the room. They pray together. Mr. Ferdi noticed the sight. During her marriage to Marisa's mother, she never witnessed a romantic and harmonious scene like Alex and Sophia. Mr. Ferdi realized he was never home. Drunk, gambling and women's games. His family is just a formality there is no happiness in it.
"Why I never used to be like that with Marisa, I just consider Marisa a wife on paper" said Mr. Ferdi.
After praying Alex approached Mr. Ferdi. Sitting near him. Sophia came out of the room to receive a call from her aunt.
"Lex, teach me to pray like you," pinta Pak Ferdi.
"Really Dad?" ask Alex enthusiastically.
Mr. Ferdi nodded. Soon Alex teaches Mr. Ferdi Taylor. Then teach him to pray. She seems to be following what Alex taught her.
Soon Sophia went inside with Aaron and Fatimah. They went to see Mr. Ferdi. Some of the conversation warmed the room. Mr. Ferdi was also friendly to welcome his besi. She doesn't want to be the way she used to be, Sophia is the best daughter-in-law who made Alex what he is today.

That morning Alex went downstairs. He walked to the lab. Ask for a DNA test for him and Mr. Ferdi. That way Alex will know whether the relationship with Mr. Ferdi, father and son or not.
"Hopefully the results are quick," inner Alex. He's walking down the hall. Accidentally met Kenan who just entered the hospital. He's got a fruit basket, he's approaching Alex.
"Assalamu'alaikum Boss," said Kenan.
"Wa'alaikumsallam, tumben bring fruit, can you owe?" ask Alex.
"Wrong Boss, can be credited at the fruit-smith all asked to be free to eat meatballs with tea," replied Kenan.
"Yes a brash buyer" said Alex.
Alex gurgles. The secretary is not missed this why also come to the hospital. No one invited him.
"The boss is actually me here to tell you about the shareholders of the Boss" Kenan said.
Alex was silent. It must have something to do with his company's stock plummeting.
"We talked there" Alex said, asking Kenan to speak at the hospital cafe. They went inside. Sitting in a chair then began to talk about the company's problems.
"What happened to the shareholders?" ask Alex.
"They backed off, wanting to withdraw the shares," Kenan replied.
"Isn't that a violation of the company's cooperation contract with them?" ask Alex.
"Yes, they don't care about paying fines than they lose money, they insist they want to withdraw their shares" Kenan replied.
"If they withdraw their shares, we're going to go bankrupt, the company needs a new investor" Alex said.
"That's the boss, I hear they want to invest their shares in the Harold Group Company, our rival company," Kenan explained.
Alex remembers the Harold Group Company. Company led cold untouched man. Mysterious and closed. He won't let anyone dare to fight him.
"Harry Harold is not an ordinary person, it would be dangerous if we were to have trouble with him. If the holders really want to invest their shares in the Harold Group Company, let it go" said Alex.
"But Boss, our company is going through a capital crisis" Kenan argued.
Alex fell silent. That's true too Kenan said. If all the stock growers run away. The company will have a capital crisis. The company's finances are insufficient to stand without a stock planter.
"Boss, are we looking for a new stock planter?" ask Kenan.
"Who would plant a stake in a troubled company like ours?" said Alex.
"If so we ask tuyul muter aja Boss, once a night dapet a lot of money, tuyul can plant shares in our company," joked Kenan.
"Good idea, why don't you ask pocong to plant shares, it must be more horrendous" replied Alex.
Kenan laughs. He deliberately entertained his boss who was again struggling with company problems.
"Boss, there is a conglomerate, his name is Mr Matteo Renaldi, he is famous for having unlimited wealth, do we offer cooperation?" ask Kenan.
"Mr Matteo? He is difficult to meet, not arbitrarily people can meet him even though we are officials," replied Alex.
"But we need a stock planter who can also affect our business Boss, Mr. Matteo is very influential in Jakarta. Of course, the appeal will restore the good name of the company," said Kenan.
"Your brain tubers are watered, was that wall vacuum?" ask Alex.
"So kidnapped the alien boss, after an hour of electrocution, my brain started to get sane and suddenly thoughtful" said Kenan.
"Often abducted by aliens, if you need not go back, I've mengikhlaskan you with them" joked Alex.
Kenan laughs. Behind serious talk need to be a little joking so that the problem does not make our brain heavy to think about it.
"Set up my meeting with Mr. Matteo" Alex said.
"Ready Boss," said Kenan.
Alex must find a new stock planter for his company's survival. He doesn't want thousands of employees at PHK. Alex must fight for his company to recover.
"Boss, Mr. Hendri, Mr. Sofyan and Yuda are already in prison, staying ...," Kenan said hesitantly saying Mr. Ferdi's name.
"I know, now that my father is sick, I'm thinking of a way out" Alex said.
"Do we take out the report? It means all is free" Kenan said.
Alex fell silent. He couldn't bear that his father should be in prison when he was helpless. Her father apologized, too.
"Let me think again" replied Alex. It's hard to position. Alex couldn't have imprisoned Mr. Ferdi. Now he needs treatment. Especially now that Mr. Ferdi was willing to repent, it would be unfair if Alex put him in prison.

A middle-aged man wearing a black suit. Seemed powerful escorted by his two men. Walk in the hallway. He went into the big room. Sit in a chair that has been specially reserved for him. Both bodyguards stood behind him. The middle-aged man was seen waiting for someone. Judah soon entered into a big room. Sit in a chair facing the man.
"I have done my duty, Mr. Ferdi has become the scapegoat of all these problems" said Yuda.
"You're smart, you work for Ferdi and for me, but you just blame Ferdi on my request, I'll give you a big bonus."
"You use Ferdi's cunning for your own personal benefit, very genius," Yuda praised.
"Ferdi must indeed rot in prison."
"But Alex is his son, who may have imprisoned his father" Yuda said.
"That's my business, your job is done."
The middle-aged man took out a Cheque. Give it to Yuda. Then he walked outside the room accompanied by his two bodyguards.
"Ferdi, I will repay you for taking someone precious to me."
The middle-aged man continued walking. His smile seemed to be on his lips.
