_If it may be\, I want to go back to a time where the problem is getting harder and becomes a burden in the present._


 


 


~.2~


 


 


The middle-aged man was checking his company's financial statements very carefully.


 


 


"If there's even the slightest mistake, I'll follow up on this."


 


 


The two women standing in front of him nodded respectfully.


 


 


After that, he met someone at the restaurant. The man who is his old friend, Rahadian Mahali, otherwise known as Mr. Ridan Mahali.


 


 


At the restaurant, they talked warmly.


 


 


"My son, Regar Mahali is not much different from your son. While my daughter is two years younger than your daughter, her name is Shica Mahali" said Ridan.


 


 


Adam responded, "Oh yes, we both have a son and a daughter. Why don't you bring them together, aren't they the same age."


 


 


"Good idea, let alone Shica not having many friends. He loves novels" said Ridan, picturing his daughter's face.


 


 


Adam nodded, "That's good, adds insight."


 


 


Ridan smiled, "I heard your daughter is a good and obedient girl. I envy you. My son and my daughter are a little bit of a rebel. They may rarely be noticed. My wife and I are too busy with work."


 


 


"Ah, just the same, my son was also a bit of a rebel after we lived in New York. I think he got along wrong" said Adam with a heavy sigh.


 


 


"They don't understand, we're working hard for their future" Ridan said, shaking his head.


 


 


Adam chuckles.


 


 


"After a long time we work together, it seems like this time we are talking about affairs outside of work," said Ridan.


 


 


Adam smiled, "Yes, we're so struggling with work that we rarely talk about personal matters."


 


 


Midan drank a light green juice. He said, "I heard the news, that the Donovan company that had gone bankrupt is now standing again, even he said much more advanced."


 


 


Adam frowned, "Really?"


 


 


Ridan frowned, "I think you know, Dam. You, right, live there."


 


 


"Emm, yes, but anyway, I pay more attention to my company here. There I just built a small house and attach great importance to my son's education."


 


 


"Oh, yeah."


 


 


Why Donovan's company could be that easy to stand back, while it took me a year to restore the glory of my company


 


 


After a week in Indonesia for the benefit of a branch company, Adam returned to New York.


 


 


Gradually, Gustiar's company in New York suffered a setback. Adam had to go back and forth between New York and Jakarta to improve his economy.


 


 


He began to despair and think of how the easiest way to resurrect his company was.


 


 


Today there is only the famous successful Donovan company in New York. Is it possible that he should put aside his shame and prestige for a while and start working again with Donovan's company?


 


 


After careful thought, Adam decided to discuss cooperation with the Donovan company, coincidentally the company is currently being held by Nicholas Donovan's only son, Felix Donovan.


 


 


Adam begins his plan by inviting Felix to dinner together. Without objecting, Felix accepted Adam's offer and that night he came to Adam's house.


 


 


There's Sarah and Svender. At the time, Sven was a teenager.


 


 


They had dinner together.


 


 


Afterwards, Adam invited Felix to speak in the living room. They talk about many things, starting with making small talk and asking each other the news.


 


 


Cih, his attitude of 180° is different from that time. You greedy, he would have asked me to help his dying company, Felix said in his heart.


 


 


Sure enough, Adam said his main purpose.


 


 


Felix smiled cynically, I expected.


 


 


Adam waited for Felix's answer. The young man looked at Adam.


 


 


"I know, you have a beautiful daughter. Why don't you take her to dinner?" Felix's question made Adam round his eyes wide.


 


 


In addition to not connecting with the topic of conversation, Adam's feelings began to feel bad. Shasha is his favorite daughter, why did Felix involve Shasha into their conversation?


 


 


"Well, he's asleep."


 


 


Felix nodded, "I heard, your daughter is very beautiful, like a snow white figure who has white and smooth skin."


 


 


Adam was getting upset. However, he was still trying to hide his emotions.


 


 


"Often, my daughter is just like any other girl." Adam drank coffee to relieve the tension in his head.


 


 


"What if I marry your daughter and I give you one of my advanced companies, then you don't have to worry about your critical company." Felix looked at Adam seriously.


 


 


Adam put the coffee cup roughly to the table. To the extent that the coffee water is slightly splashed onto the table.


 


 


Unnoticed by the two men, Sven was eavesdropping on their conversation. The man was surprised not to play.


 


 


"What do you mean! I'm asking you for help, but that doesn't mean I want to do everything, including selling my real daughter!" Adam who could not hold back his anger.


 


 


Felix turned his head to the right, "I didn't say I wanted to buy your daughter, I wanted to marry her."


 


 


"You've lost your mind? You crazy?" Adam stood up and looked up at Felix.


 


 


Looking at Adam standing up, Felix stood up as well.


 


 


"My daughter is more suitable to be your nephew, and you.. are you a pedophile? How can a successful entrepreneur like you have an abnormality!" Adam Say.


 


 


Felix had no intention of answering. He still wanted to give Adam a chance to curse and insult him.


 


 


"Even if you don't want to help me, it's okay. Now get out of this house!" Adam pointed at the door.


 


 


"You are too selfish and think of yourself. When you suffer, you come to my father and you are helped. Then I am in a difficult situation come to you who do not even want to help me."


 


 


No response from Adam. That way, Felix has no reason to still be there. He chose to leave.


 


 


Sven immediately went into hiding and watched Felix pass out.


 


 


In the front yard, Felix saw a young girl sitting on the front porch of his house. It was Shasha who was working on PR.


 


 


So, Adam lied?


 


 


Shasha is not sleeping.


 


 


Felix watched the girl for quite a while. The man admired the beauty of the girl who was much younger than him. There was a desire to have a high in his heart.


 


 


Feeling noticed by someone, Shasha turned to Felix.


 


 


The situation in the front yard of Gustiar's house was rather dark, so Shasha could not see clearly Felix's face.


 


 


Knowing it was his father's guest, Shasha smiled courteously at Felix. Seeing the girl's smile, Felix also smiled in the darkness. He moved his hand in response then went into the car.


 


 


Adam knitted his brows because he saw it from inside the house.


 


 


"I don't want him doing anything bad to my daughter. He's a dangerous man and he likes to justify everything."


 


 


~


 


 


 


 


Felix was surprised and confused. They said Felix was one of the patients who should have been in the RSJ before Nicholas Donovan became ill.


 


 


Felix shook his head not acknowledging their words. He is very normal and healthy. He's not crazy.


 


 


Felix began to think, if there is someone who wants to drop it, especially entrepreneurs who feel rivaled by his company.


 


 


Sven was put into an RSJ called Danamaha HI.


 


 


Felix felt he had no problems whatsoever with the company. He also has no personal problems with the family who is originally of Indonesian descent.


 


 


He tried to contact his confidants, yet no one could make him out of that horrible place.


 


 


It was as if everything had been carefully planned for him to rot in there.


 


 


This must have been the intervention of Adam Gustiar and a person from the Danamily family who had close ties to the. Especially if this mental hospital belongs to the family Danamaha. I'm getting more and more sure.


 


 


Inside the asylum, a lot of bad things happened to Felix.


 


 


It starts with seeing the patients who work on it. The RSJ officers were also behaving badly.


 


 


Felix thought they were infected with madness, as well as the nurses and doctors there.


 


 


Felix is in tremendous misery. She was also a victim of sexual abuse in that horrible place.


 


 


It was inconceivable how disheartened a man of the Donovan family was.


 


 


Not to mention his company that is getting backwards and on the verge of bankruptcy. No one wants to work with someone with a mental illness like Felix.


 


 


Because Felix and Nicholas couldn't take care of the company, Donovan's company collapsed.


 


 


Hearing the news of his son entering the RSJ and other bad news, Nicholas's situation got worse. He asked his confidant to get Felix out.


 


 


It worked, but not for long. RSJ Danamaha took back his son and put the man into the RSJ.


 


 


Is that RSJ or prison?


 


 


It's even worse in prison.


 


 


While in a mental hospital, Felix hears of his deceased father. He couldn't even see his father's last moment.


 


 


Not a moment Felix lived and tortured in RSJ Danamaha. He was there for 3 years. The hair adorned his chin and jaw. The man's good looks had already been forcibly taken with his suffering.


 


 


Until someone came to help him. Someone who came out of nowhere who brought a psychiatrist and checked Felix's psyche and declared that Felix was not crazy.


 


 


Whether it is yes, or not. But, the man managed to get Felix in the safe zone.


 


 


She is, Aditya Adiwijaya.


 


 


The man who managed to bring Felix out of the hell of the world in the form of a multi-storey building.


 


 


Adi said, if he hates the Danamaha family and is eager to destroy anything related to Danamaha.


 


 


"They're crazy, but cover it up by building hospitals and dispensaries everywhere." Adi sipped his cigar.


 


 


Felix listened seriously.


 


 


They were at Adi's house.


 


 


"Family and family have a bad mentality. They're descended from psychopaths and venereal criminals. Our family (Adiwijaya) has long been hostile to their family. So, anyone who becomes a friend of Danamah is an enemy of Adiwijaya and who becomes an enemy of Danamah is a friend of Adiwijaya."


 


 


Felix nodded in understanding, "Thank you."


 


 


"I'll help you restore the glory of Donovan's company. But, I must persuade the Mahali family to help us as well, before they are brainwashed by Danamaha and Gustiar." Adi turned off the long cigar.


 


 


Feeling no response, Adi continued to speak, "The Mahali family has never sided with anyone. They are always helpful and willing to work with anyone. Don't worry."


 


 


"I understand" Felix said softly.


 


 


Silent.


 


 


Feeling awkward with such a state of silence, Felix made a sound.


 


 


"How do you get me out so easily?" Felix asked as he looked up at Adi.


 


 


"In addition to bringing for proof, I also have a person inside the RSJ. It seems you need to imitate my cunning," Adi replied with a laugh.


 


 


Felix smiled at that.


 


 


"In the RSJ it's not just crazy people, those patients aren't all crazy. There are some who are Adam Gustiar's men to make you suffer. The officer is the same."


 


 


Felix clenched his hands furiously, "I need to avenge them."


 


 


Adi nodded, "I'll help. But, start with your company. You have to pay people to repay them."


 


 


"If it works, what should I do for you? I may not repay your kindness" Felix said.


 


 


"Why think about that? You need to focus on your goals first. As for the reply you mean, I don't mind what way you'll repay."


 


 


"Thank you, thank you so much."


 


 


"Don't thank me, I've been working with your father for a long time. Only, our cooperation is not continued. I moved to Indonesia with my niece, Aryatama."


 


 


Felix nodded in understanding.


 


 


Adi patted Felix on the shoulder, making the man a bit scared. Yes, of course Felix is afraid and shocked at men because of the incident at RSJ.


 


 


Finally, with the help of the companies Adiwijaya and Mahali, Donovan company was able to rise and return to success.


 


 


The allegations about Felix's mental illness were dismissed as a misunderstanding and a conspiracy by his rivals. Because the psychiatrist himself said so, eventually everyone believed and became sympathetic to Felix.


 


 


Not only cooperating with Adiwijaya and Mahali companies, Felix also re-teamed with large companies that have worked together before, such as family-owned companies Rigaav, Smith, and Davidson.


 


 


That makes the Donovan company a successful company and more successful than ever.


 


 


Felix re-opened the school his father had painstakingly built. And yesterday it was closed, when he entered the RSJ.


 


 


Felix also built the RSJ with good officers and likes to work hard. Not only in New York, Felix also built the RSJ in Indonesia, named Larissa. Larissa was the name of her late mother, Larissa Donovan.


 


 


The man shaved off some of the fine hairs on his jaw and left some of them to make the man look more handsome and charismatic.


 


 


Felix Donovan is a friendly and kind man. Everyone liked the humble attitude from him.


 


 


Yeah, Felix is good. He never bothered, let alone hurt people who had no problems with him. He likes to help and his attitude is even better now than his attitude before entering the RSJ first.


 


 


Aditya Adiwijaya asked him to be kind. The man was like a father when talking to Felix. Adi also invited Felix to Indonesia.


 


 


Finally Felix decided to build his branch company in Jakarta.


 


 


He also works with Hardiswara company in Indonesia.


 


 


Felix hears that Sven has enrolled at his High School.


 


 


Didn't Adam know it was his school?


 


 


Finally the revenge begins.
