My husband General
CHAPTER 84

Joy drove the car, while Nadia sat beside him quietly. They chatted a little on the way, but Joy didn't talk too much because she was afraid of misinformation. Joy also did not want Nadia to worry because the news in the media cornered Chandra. Before Nadia arrived in Bandung, Chandra had already contacted her family not to discuss the scandalous allegations dragging her name on Nadia. Joy felt it was a good decision rather than having to make Nadia worried in the midst of her vulnerable state.

Jakarta, TNI AD Head Office - Disciplinary Commission Board.

Chandra saluted some members of the TNI AD who welcomed him at the headquarters. Some of them may be quite surprised by Chandra's arrival at the office after a violent scandal that brought his name. Chandra knows that she is now the center of attention of almost all levels of society, especially society that stereotypes men in uniform like herself.

However, Chandra would not take it for granted, nor had he ever dealt with anything like this before. He was also unable to do anything of his will.

"Today, the power of social media cannot be taken lightly, sir. We can't manage people's opinions and perspectives let alone society at large."

Chandra nodded in agreement to the words of the Disciplinary Commission before him, there were five people at once who interrogated Chandra that afternoon.

"I did have time to reprimand the journalist, but I did not commit any physical violence."

"I know, Sir. But what does society believe? Will they care?" said one of them insistent, refuting Chandra's explanation.

"Yes, right. I also don't understand why the reporter made such news."

"Yes, because your wife is a very famous person. News that concerns your wife must be very in demand. All for business."

Chandra smiled wryly at the disciplinary member's statement to her. "Yes, I understand that. But for the most basic reason I believe there is another reason. I want the disciplinary commission to participate in further investigation."

The commission chairman confirmed Chandra's request. "But because the image of the TNI is getting worse due to these accusations. Still, you have to do the suspension according to the rules and policies."

"I'm willing to do the suspension, if it can fix things right away."

The arrival of Liza that night made Nadia feel even more unpleasant feelings. Since arriving in Bandung, Nadia was not at all calm, her mind was still branched and many irregularities were felt by her. Houses that usually never get tight security, it must be guarded by two TNI members. And now, Liza was before him with a face that looked confused and worried.

"Nad, be patient, yes" said Liza suddenly as she dropped a soft elusan on Nadia's shoulder.

"Liz, what's up? Everyone's getting weird today."

"Your husband, Nad. Chandra slandered the same gossip news reporter. I can't hide this from you, because I'm so angry. The reporter said that Chandra had committed severe abuse until the journalist was seriously injured."

"Gue has hired a lawyer to handle all of that. Anyway, you calm down. Because your husband is not wrong. I could be a witness in court."

"Liz, share ...." Nadia tried to digest Liza's explanation. With a trembling body, Nadia mastered her completely absentmindedness.

Liza swiftly embraced Nadia's body and looked at her with a wary look. Nadia was crying again, her face was hot and Nadia was devastated by all the grooves Chandra gave her today. Is it possible that Chandra will do anything else to correct the slander that befell him?

Nadia covered her face with both palms, crying out loudly in front of Liza who was now feeling increasingly guilty.

"Nad, sorry. Although I know you'll be sad, but I think you need to know about this. You have to be patient, you can cheat on this. I made a statement with the agency, your husband called me. Nad, I'm sorry."

Joy who heard the sound of Nadia's crying rushed to Nadia and Liza who were in the room. Nadia firmly took off Joy and Liza's arms, the girl grabbed the jacket that had been stored in the hanger.

"Sister, where are you going? I'm here, brother, calm down first" said Joy while holding Nadia's body so as not to come out of the room and do things beyond reason. Liza did the same, the state of the room that night became very chaotic. Nadia continued to cry and the two women who were there also felt what Nadia was feeling.

It must have been very hard for Nadia to experience shocking things in a row on the same day as this. Liza emboldened Nadia water and sedatives according to the dose that Nadia had not consumed for a long time.

Nadia refused the medicine, but she received a glass of water and gulped it down a bit. Nadia tried to regulate her breath that felt tight, Joy who was at her side continued to give a soft elusan to Nadia's trembling arms.

"Joy, can you call Chandra?" pinta Nadia with her voice that almost finished that night. Joy nodded and grabbed the phone she had in her pocket.

"Can, Brother. But ...."

"I want to ask him how he is doing. He's definitely not gonna pick up the phone if I call in person."

Joy handed her phone to Nadia. After getting a cell phone, Nadia went from the room to the balcony so she could talk alone with her husband.

Liza and Joy waited anxiously. Ever since Liza's arrival to that place, she has somehow become as familiar with Joy as she is today.

"Hello, Joy. What's up?"

A tired voice that belonged to her husband greeted across the street, Nadia closed her lips with her left hand while hearing Chandra's voice that felt so far from her reach that night.

"Joy, Nadia's asleep?" ask Chandra again gently. Chandra, who had just received the instructions to rest, was apparently unable to fall asleep that night while staying at the central military camp in Jakarta.

"Joy?"

Nadia bit her lower lip. "Not yet, Nadia has not slept," replied Nadia sobbing.

Chandra, who had been leaning on the head of the bed, was so shocked that the man sat up on the bed. Nadia's voice scrambling with a sobbing sounded very clearly entering her eardrum.

"Honey ...," call Chandra soft, somewhat seducing. However, Nadia's cry was heard increasingly so-so on the other side.

Chandra patiently waited for the sobbing to come to a halt, nearly ten minutes both silent in their respective positions. Chandra doesn't know what to say after he lied to Nadia about the problems that befell them both today.

In fact, Nadia could not speak at all, she wanted to meet Chandra in person and hear all the explanations from her husband's mouth right now. So, Nadia decided to hang up the phone call next to the party. Hearing Chandra's voice without seeing her face made Nadia feel hurt.

Nadia could not understand herself, why she could behave like this towards Chandra. However, there was an immense fear that had taken hold of him. Falling in love with a general is difficult, not what he imagined.
