Seeing Grace's unfriendly appearance and demeanor, Henny's mother wasn't sure if Grace could be seconded at Wreda's home.
Working in a foundation like a nursing home that is handled requires people who are tough and require extraordinary patience. Because most are inhabited by elderly people, most of whom have started to be senile and right behaving like children. And it was not at all he saw in the figure of Grace, the woman called Rizal will work at the Wreda Panti that he headed.
" Hmmm, Mr. Rizal. Can I have a four-eye conversation with you first, sir?" Henny's mother felt the need to discuss with Rizal first before agreeing to Grace working at the parlor.
" Okay, Miss Henny." Rizal agrees to what Henny's mother wants.
" Vito, I'll talk to Ms. Henny. You accompany Lady Agatha and Miss Grace first." Rizal tells Vito to keep an eye on Grace. He's still afraid that Grace is going to run away from them.
" Good, sir." said Vito.
Rizal then looked at Grace who was staring at him. " Stay be your attitude in this place, Miss." Before leaving Grace, Rizal had warned Grace not to provoke a commotion, making Grace roll her eyes.
After Rizal entered following Henny's mother's steps, and entered the room in the parlour, Grace's eyes noticed the non-fenced yard. It does not seem difficult for him to escape from the orphanage if he is later placed in the Wreda Panti.
" It's Ok." murmured Grace pulled the corner of her lips, feeling sure she didn't need to be in that place long enough. If the two thwarted men leave and the wound on his neck begins to dry up, he is determined to leave.
" You'd better not think of the fog from here, Miss Grace. You're happy in your supervision." Vito who had been paying attention to Grace's movements immediately warned Grace.
" The al!" curse Grace because Vito can guess what's inside her sneaky brain.
" Grace, Mama hope you don't have any thoughts of escaping!" Hearing what Vito said to his son, Agatha hoped that her daughter would not act recklessly.
" Mom, why did Mama hear him? Mama trusts other people you just know more than your own??" Grace still denies it and considers Vito to be just defamatory.
" Mama doesn't believe you, Grace. But it's your attitude that worries you" Agatha said, making Grace cluck.
Meanwhile inside the parlor ....
" Please, Mr. Rizal." Henny's mother let Rizal into her study. " Please sit ...!" he continued after Rizal went inside.
" How about, Miss Henny?" ask Rizal. Actually, he knows where Mother Henny's talking is going.
" Hmmm, look, Mr. Rizal. About the person Mr. Rizal brought earlier to work here. Is Mr Rizal sure Mbak was able to work here?" ask Henny's mother to hesitate.
" I'm not really sure either, Ms. Henny. But, I hope the help of Ms. Henny, to be able to train Miss Grace to be a better person, mature minded and able to be sensitive to the surroundings and respect people older than her. I think it's good to practice patience Miss Grace, Miss Henny." Rizal himself knew it was too risky to put Grace in that parlour. He was like gambling with the proposal he put to David Richard.
" Later my men will be watching here, Mrs Henny. I don't have to worry about Miss Grace making a fuss." Rizal tries to convince Henny's mother to accept Grace and educate Grace by making Grace a volunteer at the parlor.
" Well if Mr. Rizal can guarantee Grace won't mess up here, I'll try to train him as Mr. Rizal wants." Inevitably, Henny's mother agreed to Rizal's request, because he had just received a donation from David Richard of one hundred million rupiah. A small amount of rupiah according to David, but large enough for the continuity of the Panti Wreda.

" Give me Miss's phone!" While leaving the home, Rizal asks Grace to give up her phone.
" What did you ask for my HP for?!" ketus Grace is suspicious.
" I don't want to!" reject Grace.
" You have no choice, Miss. Hand over Miss's phone and get this phone." Rizal forces Grace to give up her phone.
Grace looked at Rizal hatefully. His sense of regret in the man had multiplied greatly.
" Aren't the prisoners not allowed to carry a cell?" rizal's insinuation is because Grace didn't give him her phone either.
" On my phone there's a lot of banking data, do you want to steal money in my account?!" grace Tuding.
" We have said that we are law-abiding people, so do not equate us with Miss who easily commits criminal acts" Rizal said. " Nona's phone anyway, Mama Nona herself will hold it" Rizal explained
Grace glanced at Agatha, her mother nodding her head approving of what Rizal had asked for.
" Your phone, Mama will hold it, Grace." Agatha said.
Hearing Agatha's words, despite doubts, Grace finally handed her phone to Rizal and received a phone with a new SIM card number.
Actually replacing the new phone at Agatha's request to keep Joe out of touch with his daughter. However, Rizal also uses it to track Grace's activities related to her phone including Grace's whereabouts if Grace escapes from them.
" Grace, Mama's coming home first. Mama please, you don't act out here." Agatha again warned her daughter not to act recklessly by running away from the home.
" Mom, can't Mama bribe those two to defect to us? I'm sure Mama can also pay them more than they received from that Gavin!" grace whispered as Agatha hugged her for a farewell.
" It's not about the money, Grace. They're reliable detectives, there's no way to be bribed like that!" Agatha rejects the idea of Grace wanting herself to give money to Rizal and Vito to side with her.
" Why don't you try to tempt the Old Man, Mam? I don't think he's too old with Mama. So I can be free!" Grace further confounded by asking Agatha to tease Rizal, whom she thought was more compatible with Agatha's age, although she was still older.
" Grace! Don't gi la, you!" Agatha glared at the request of her daughter earlier. " Mama's coming home first, Grace. Remember the mother's message." After saying goodbye, Agatha left Grace at the home.
After Rizal briefs Vito to wait for the man who will replace Vito to take care of Garce, the young widower walks towards Grace.
" Vito and my men will be monitoring you, so think carefully if you intend to escape from here!" threaten Rizal as he walks past Grace and steps towards his car to leave the home immediately.
