The Antagonist
Investigatory

In the hallway of the hospital Abimayu walked hurriedly towards the ICU room. From far away he could see the mother-in-law sitting in a long chair looking chaotic, next to him was Elis who looked bracing. The man frowned not to find his wife.

Right after the meeting was over, Abimayu was stunned by the news Alex reported. The main warehouse of the Artama Group company experienced a fire, the fire devoured everything without a remnant. Everything was scorched in such a short time that no one could be saved, lucky that there were no casualties there.

The warehouse is the storage of raw materials for the Arthama family business. Where raw materials are stored and produced until the goods are ready to be marketed. The total losses suffered by the Arthama family are immeasurable, even the company is really shaken by it. Some investors began to revoke their shares, not wanting to participate in the loss.

“Mah,” Abimayu approaches her mother-in-law's.

“Nak,” back tears Nila berlinang, women aged almost half a century that seemed shaken by what happened. Under his eyes were black with increasingly visible facial lines. There was a surprised look displayed by the look in his eyes.

“Mama quiet yes, all will be well.” Abimayu said crouching down, aligning himself with the mother-in-law. It does not feel willing to see Nila in a state of slump like this, her mother-in-law is a cheerful person. “Everything will be fine,” again Abimayu gave the words of the winner, although he himself was not calm because he did not find the whereabouts of the wife and news from his in-laws.

“Papa how?” Nila shook her head, looking at the emergency room.

“Doctor is still doing checks, Mr.” Elis answered. Abhimayu looked up, then got up. He wondered about the whereabouts of his wife. It was impossible for his wife to leave the hospital without knowing her father first, except for something urgent.

“Where is my wife?”

“Nona .. miss is meeting with client with assistant mr. Arsyad.” Right, after visiting the hospital and letting Elis take care of her mother. Nayla quickly goes with her father's secretary to calm the clients who have heard the news of the warehouse fire.

“Nak, please, please help Nayla—“ please Nila.

“Definitely. Mama now rest, do not forget to eat and keep health. I don't want Mama to do anything. Papa same Nay needs Mama.” Abimayu did not want any other family members to get sick. Nila nodded, she did not want that to happen either. Do not want to add to their burden, nor do they want the child to worry more.

Abimayu said goodbye, calling the assistant after he told his men to look after the in-laws.

After Abimayu was lost, Elis offered Nila food again. A woman who treats her like her own child. Nila no longer refuses now, she tries to input food even though not tasteful.

“What you say is true, Sir. This fire did not just happen as reported, there is something strange and I am still investigating.” Report Alex across the phone. Abimayu immediately tells her to investigate the case of the Arthama family's main warehouse fire. Although everything looks real and the status of the fire was declared due to an accident, Abimayu still wants to investigate it himself.

“Continue investigating, if necessary check all CCTVs close to the incident area.” Even one building that has CCTVs should not be missed!

“Good, Mr.”

“One more time, send us a list of clients who cooperate with Arthama Group.” Alex did not ask much, he immediately carried out orders from Abimayu.

On the other hand, Nayla and her father's secretary had just come out of a restaurant. No, not to enjoy the food. The two have just negotiated with the client to discuss changes in their cooperation.

Countless number of times they had met. Clients accept there are also those who immediately reject the change of their agreement so that the cooperation is canceled.

Nayla sighed, “Where else now, Mr Yan?” ask her father's secretary. The man who was his father's age began to see the list of meetings he had arranged.

“PT. Cakra requests a meeting in person in their office, Miss. Further our client Mr. Brian requested a meeting at the airport area cafe, Mis Sella invited to meet at—“

“Abi ..” Call Nayla when she finds the figure, her eyes start to glaze over.

Abimayu was filled to see the tired look on his wife's face, he immediately approached and brought the woman in a hug. Nayla held back tears, returning hugs from her husband.

“I'm with you,” said Abimayu rubbed Nayla's head gently, then landed a kiss there. A great many events had happened, and the words from her husband gave her peace of mind. To be honest, he couldn't handle all of this on his own. He needs a backrest, needs a place to share. And Abimayu gladly accepted it all. He did not want his wife to endure everything alone.

“Now we go home, you need a break.” Abimayu loosened their embrace.

“Tapi—“

“Sttt, you trust ‘kan with me?” Nayla looked at her husband's bead without a doubt, then nodded.

“You better return to the changes only and reassure the investors and shareholders. My people are already waiting for you there.” After a few more words Abimayu led his wife to the car. Arsyad's assistant nodded respectfully at Abimayu's help.

After Abimayu's vehicle, which was carrying the child of his boss, Yan received a call from his secretary informing him that the clients had been taken care of and that their company had received an injection of funds from Bhaskara Group.

Now the middle-aged lung man who is Arsyad's right hand can breathe a sigh of relief, not expecting the daughter-in-law of his boss is very deft in dealing with this problem.

“Tua—“ Abimayu signals Alex not to make a sound. He was carrying his sleeping wife when he headed home.

Abimayu entered their room, then laid Nayla down slowly. He kissed his wife's forehead and covered her with a blanket. The door to the room was closed tightly.

Abimayu finally entered his study not too far away with his room. Alex followed him and handed him the brown envelope he had been holding to hand over to the master.

“This is the result of our investigation, Sir. The fire was not caused by an accident, there was someone who deliberately wanted to burn the warehouse. We also get pictures of the perpetrators who put bombs on some side of the warehouse.” Alex handed over the CCTV footage he managed to get to Abimayu.

Abimayu looked at her seriously, subconsciously clenching her hands on the table. “You've caught it?” abimayu's voice was not friendly.

“Already, Sir. We even interrogated him.”

“Who?!”

“It ...” Alex hesitates to answer.

“Say!” abimayu Sentak. Alex did not answer, he immediately handed the reception card to the master.

“Barra and Maya?!”
