Flashbacks
During Edward's S2 college in America, Edward did not return to Indonesia. And all this time, Kevin and Melan couldn't attend Edward's graduation because their company was dropping and needed a lot of investment.
Then the last 3 months, Kevin's company that he just started back a few years ago experienced a decline because the ingredients of the drug manufacture material has increased prices in the market.
There is no other way but to ask for help from Randy who owns a company in agriculture and soars up his shares when food becomes expensive.
Kevin and Melan meet Randy and Winny at Surya Atmaja's family home. Kevin's intention and goal is to ask for help for his company, however, he prestige to say that his company is declining. Then Kevin and Melan also took the initiative to betroth their child to the family child Surya Atmaja.
" Ran, it was my intention to come here to match my son to your son" Kevin said.
" Yes, I'm desperate to find a partner for Wat. He always didn't want to. I believe your son is good Win." said Melan.
" Do you agree?" ask Kevin.
" I agree to agree. As long as it's best for Lizzy." replied Randy.
" I want to be betrothed Lizzy, yes, I agree. But just at Lizzy's graduation yesterday, she introduced her boyfriend to us" Winny said.
" So your son already has Win's girlfriend?" ask Melan.
" Yes, Lizzy's boyfriend is also nice and handsome. It seems Lizzy is comfortable with him too. I'm sure Lizzy hasn't had a boyfriend in years" Winny said.
" My son must be better than Lizzy's girlfriend Win. I assure. Si Wat was already a doctor and also S2 business. He's a good boy. Can you persuade Lizzy to accept this match?" said Kevin.
" I can't promise to accept this match. But I'll work on it. I will ask if Lizzy has returned to Indonesia and her studies are over. I don't want to burden him." said Randy.
" Alright, I hope we can get closer to this. I'll wait." replied Kevin.
And during these 3 months the company Kevin and Melan began to rise again thanks to the help of Randy. Actually, Randy doesn't mind having to help Kevin without having to match their son. Because Winny and Randy also feel sorry if Lizzy should be betrothed. While Lizzy is not her biological child, and they did not raise Lizzy.
Randy will leave all his decisions to Lizzy. Because they do not want to burden Lizzy with the problems in the life of the business who betrothed their children just because they want the company to be more advanced than before.

The Wang family home.
Edward hasn't been out of the room for 3 days. He does not eat or drink. He was very disappointed with his parents who wanted to match him for business. Even Edward has been willing to obey the wishes of his parents all this time without objection. But as he thought about the future, even his parents also made a choice for Edward without thinking about Edward's position.
Edward's face was very pale. He didn't even dare to call Lizzy.
tock tock sounds Edward's room door. Edward ignored the knock.
" Wat, this is mami. Let's go out for a little while to eat. You have not eaten for 3 days without drinking. Even the food you're providing in front of your room is untouched" Melan said.
" No mi, my mother there who eats. Wat did not want to eat." replied Edward from his room.
" Dad, don't be. Is it because we're talking about this matchmaking that you become?" ask Melan.
" Mommy thinks of herself." replied Edward again.
" Come Wat, we just want what's best for you. And that girl is the best. Even Papi had met him, and he was very polite to Wat. Mami is sure you will be able to love her and forget your boyfriend." Melan said.
" It's so good that my mom said that if I could forget my boyfriend for the sake of a girl who is not as clear as my mom would be with me. Come on, get out of there. I don't want to hear anything anymore" Edward said, and Melan felt that he was wrong, leaving Edward's room.
2 Days later Melan comes back to Edward's room to take him to breakfast.

" Wattt." called Melan but there was no response from Edward.
" Wat's mommy, open the door. Let's eat together." said Melan but there was still no answer.
" Wat, if you don't open the door, you open the spare key." Melan threatened.
There was no response from Edward. Melan becomes worried and goes downstairs to meet Kevin.
" Pi, that's a kid called ga no sautan her" Melan said.
" It's mi, diemin aja later also if he was already sluggish will go down alone." ketus Kevin.
" But pi, mami's worried. Ah mami wants to find the spare key first" Melan said.
" This mama, she's a little boy don't get spoiled. What's he gonna be pampered for?" said Kevin.
Melan ignored him and went straight to his room to find a spare key. Soon he found her, and immediately went straight to Edward's room.
Arriving in Edward's room, Melan immediately opened the room door using the spare key he brought. However, Melan did not find Edward in the room, so Melan entered the bathroom in the room and was surprised to find his son lying on the bathroom floor.
" PAPI!!! GET OVER HERE!!!" yell Melan.
Kevin who heard Melan's screams immediately ran towards Edward's room and saw that the child was merely faint helpless.
" Mi, hurry mami prepare the car. Papi will take Wat to the hospital. Cepet mi." said Kevin.
Melan went straight down and prepared the car. Kevin came while carrying his son and put him in the car. Kevin drove the car at high speed. While Melan, he sat in the back seat while holding his son's head.
Finally, they arrived at the IGD hospital.
" Sus, help my son" Melan told a nun.
" Good ma'am, wait a minute." said the nurse and immediately called the others to help her lift Edward to the push mattress. Edward was taken into the IGD room.
" I'm sorry sir, ma'am, please wait here. We'll take care of the patient soon" said the nurse.
Shortly after, the doctor entered the room.
After checking Edward's condition, the doctor came out of the room.
" The Edward Family?" ask Doctor.
" Yes my doc" said Kevin.
" What's my son doing, Doc?" ask Melan.
" Mom's son is fine, he just lost a lot of body fluids that made him unconscious. And it looks like the stomach acid is very high because there is no intake of food that comes in. In a few moments he will be conscious. I gave him medicine. Please support and cooperation to take care of the mother and father. Excuse me sir, ma'am." said the doctor as he walked into his room.
Melan and Kevin can only speak a thousand languages. They did not expect that his actions would make Edward this way. Edward never denied what his parents had said.
Edward has been moved to the inpatient room by a doctor. Melan was in the hospital this morning. Kevin, still anxious about Edward's situation, gets a call that investors want to meet him in person. Inevitably, Kevin must choose between his son and the job that demands it.
However, the doctor said his son was fine.
" But pi, Wat is still unconscious" said Melan.
" The doctor said he was fine. Come on, papi's gonna be late for this." persuaded Kevin.
" all right. Mami's coming with the papi." Melan replied.
They left Edward alone in the hospital.
3 Hours later, Edward regained his senses and began to open his eyes. He was surprised by the room that was foreign to him. As he remembered, he was in the bathroom. Edward saw a man in a white coat.
" Where am I?" ask the doctor.
" Oh, Edward, are you conscious? You're in the hospital" replied the doctor.
" huh? Why am I in the hospital?" ask Edward again.
" You passed out earlier, and were brought by your parents here" the doctor said.
" Em alright. Now where are my parents, Doc?" Edward asked.
" I don't know, I don't know, when I come in and give you an injection in your infusion, you have no one to look after" said the doctor.
" Okay, thank you" said Edward.
" Same same. Excuse me first" said the doctor.
After the doctor left, Edward was still thinking about the fact that he was a puppet of his parents.
" Hahaha even when I go to the hospital rich gini aja, they do not want to nemenin gw. Who is my son really? Why don't my parents care about me! Edward is a moron still holding on to all this!!" said Edward himself.
He hasn't told Lizzy in days. They lost contact. Edward had no idea that Lizzy in America was missing and worrying about Edward. Edward was not going to talk to Lizzy because he would not know how. Because he is a puppet of his parents. He couldn't bear to hurt Lizzy.
Edward was hospitalized for 3 days. The doctor let her go home today. Melan, Kevin, and Dave come to pick up Edward. Melan and Kevin were just for a while and told Dave to accompany Edward home. Dave followed Edward's parents' wishes.
On the way home, Dave asked Edward.
" Wat, why the hell did you get to the hospital?" ask Dave.
" Males eat me." replied Edward briefly.
" Ah you rich boy just use males eat everything. What's up?" said Dave.
" I want to be fooled" said Edward.
" What's? You have Wat's girlfriend! How's your story fooled?" ask Dave.
Then Edward told Dave everything.
" So Lizzy wants you to be safe?" ask Dave.
" Goru I have to what now. He's a life for me Dave." said Edward.
" Halah bucin lu, try asking first sm mami papi when you are familiar with the girl who was betrothed sm lu? Let the future be thought out first" said Dave.
" Yes, yes, you are too. But, I'm afraid it hurts Lizzy, Dev." said Edward.
" Try it first. If the soul mate is not going where Wat." replied Dave.
