Chapter 20

Axel is now in the field where he used to work, after his father and mother's wedding he decided to come here just to have a look.
 "It turns out that it is already more fertile than the old one," said Axel looking at the very wide fields, and stretched out beautifully.
 But his gaze was fixed on Mr. Jeff who was seen from a distance, Mr. Jeff saw Axel's presence. Mr. Jeff waved his hand towards Axel, Axel also waved his hand.
 "Hey, Alex, you're here. Come on, sit down, let's chat for a while!" Mr. Jeff said in a slightly shouting voice calling Axel.
 Axel nodded and walked closer to Mr. Jeff, immediately taking a seat beside Mr. Jeff who was relaxing happily alone.
 "Just relax here sir? Not working?" Axel asked casually because usually, he knew Mr. Jeff would be working at this time.
 "Let's take a day off, let the others work," said Mr. Jeff, Axel just nodded.
 "How come you came here, Alex? I haven't seen you in a long time. How are you feeling well?" said Mr. Jeff, because after Axel resigned he never saw him again.
"As you can see right now, just fine," Axel replied. "I just want to unwind, while looking at the fields here. I feel like I miss this place," Axel replied, making Mr. Jeff nod in understanding.
 Suddenly his mind just remembered, about the wedding that just happened a few hours ago. He looked at Axel with a sharp gaze. To ask the thing that stuck in his mind.
 "If I may ask, is it true that Mr. Albert has returned with his wife? The wedding that was held this morning?" Asked Mr. Jeff, Axel looked at Mr. Jeff who was looking at him sharply. Then he nodded, confirming what he said.
 "Yes, my father is back with my mother, oh yes, Mr. Jeff, you don't have to call me Alex anymore. Because my real name is Axel," answered Axel quickly, Mr. Jeff could only exhale in resignation and shock.
 "My name is Alex just to disguise it, so people don't know who I am and I'm still trying to find out who my real mother is," added Axel explaining everything to Mr. Jeff.
 Mr. Jeff understood Axel's words. "I'm really surprised that Alex, who I've known all this time, is a conglomerate kid. As if everything was just a dream. I can't believe it when I hear stories from people," said Mr. Jeff Again, Axel just laughed softly at that.
 "Because I was just a laborer, right? I also resigned first, so I could help my mother in the fields there because I also want to continue to be near my mother," Axel replied with a forward gaze, while Mr. Jeff was already looking at Axel with great emotion and pride.
 Mr. Jeff patted Axel's shoulder many times, conveying the pride he was feeling. What he had coached and mentored before is now back to being a different personality, even a very far jump from the others.
 "I'm not your parent, I'm proud of what you got. Your struggle was not in vain Axel, you fought alone and you can already feel the results," replied Mr. Jeff. If only Axel was his son, maybe Mr. Jeff would be very proud of Axel who managed to succeed alone.
 "You should be proud of yourself Axel, you have tried your best to even get what you want."
 "This was all God's plan, if it weren't for God's hand, it might not have reached this point yet," Axel said again, Mr. Jeff smiled at that. Axel believes that if it wasn't for fate, he couldn't be like this.
 "Many outsiders have worked hard, but life is still like that because it is not God's destiny," replied Axel.
 "Your knowledge is very broad, your worship is also strong." Mr. Jeff understands and is happy, seeing a very different change from Axel.
 "Oh yes, I also heard that you bought fields in the village for your mother. Is that true?" Asked Mr. Jeff when he heard that one of his neighbors said that Axel, who was only a laborer, could now afford to buy fields at high prices.
 "Yes, I also bought a field as a gift to my mother, because I have never given anything to my mother in my life. So I gave the field to your mother," Axel replied, making Mr. Jeff proud, he even shook his head.
 "You are truly a dutiful child, I can't say anymore with the results of the work you put in." Mr. Jeff could only shake his head.
 "Sometimes when I think of a worker I am a conglomerate child, it's very funny when I remember it," said Mr. Jeff with a slight laugh, when he remembered that.
 Mr. Jeff taught him to work hard, for some reason he felt embarrassed because he often scolded Axel before for being negligent at work.
 "But thanks to you, I also understand the fields, the wider world of work. I am proud to have been your laborer," Axel replied. Axel also once thought, if in the past he had not worked together with Mr. Jeff at the lapak, maybe he would not have understood how hard the Arakan world is trying to make money to survive.
 Mr. Jeff smiled at Axel's words. "But I am more proud of you, you can grow to be better and more successful without any interference from your parents. All purely from your hard work, that is a very good achievement," said Mr. Jeff again praising Axel's abilities.
 "Thank you, Mr. Jeff, I also want to make my parents proud. I once thought, if my brother can't do it then I have to be able to."
Mr. Jeff is amazed at Axel who has so much potential, even now he feels like he's lost if he's going to be side by side with Axel now. Which is far more advanced than him.
 "Then let me say goodbye first, sir, I want to see other areas first, I haven't been around for a long time," Axel said after a long silence, he said goodbye to leave.
 Mr. Jeff nodded. "Yes please, you used to be supervised at work now you are supervising." They chuckled together at the words of Mr. Jeff
 Mr. Jeff stared at Axel's departure with a look that was difficult to interpret. "Indeed, yes, if God's plan, nothing is impossible," muttered Mr. Jeff with a sweet smile, staring at Axel's departure until he completely disappeared from his sight.
