Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2823

Now, the nature of this case had become even more serious.

Shandra did not play along with him and asked in a serious tone, "Do you know how severe the sentencing can be in A City for this? Mr. Ethan, you shouldn't have withheld any information when you sought a lawyer!"

Ethan nodded repeatedly and replied, "It's just a difference of a few more or fewer years in the sentence, but I believe you, Ms. Cullen. You have the ability to settle this matter for Mr. Matysh."

Shandra rolled her eyes. She did not want to hear such flattery.

Did settling this matter for Matysh not mean helping him to avoid imprisonment?

Unless there was a complete reversal in the chain of evidence, there was nothing she could do about it. She could only fight for a slightly reduced prison term for Matysh.

Shandra decided not to argue about that and asked, "Tell me about Mr. Marcos."

"Are you interested in him?" Ethan could not help but make a connection when he saw her sudden curiosity about Marcos.

"Since the day I decided to become a lawyer, I've made up my mind that my husband can only be from the legal field, Mr. Ethan. If I'm defending Mr. Matysh, I need to understand everything about him—his relationships and even his background. Otherwise, it'll be difficult for me to handle this matter." Shandra's expression turned serious as she mentioned that her husband had to be from the legal field, reminding her of Walter.

He was like a lingering ghost!

He would show up at every place she went. It was as though he was tormenting her like he was taking revenge.

Shandra even felt that if it were not for her strong psychological resilience, she would have been emotionally shattered by Walter’s behavior.

Fortunately, tough people could not be easily defeated!

Ethan thought to himself that it was not surprising for him to think that way in the first place when he heard that.

After all, Marcos was considered outstanding in the eyes of many women who desired to be his wife.

However, those women only had such thoughts because Marcos was managing M Group now.

Ethan believed that if Matysh was fine, Marcos would be in trouble.

Would those women still cling to Marcos with their burning desires at that time?

Ethan looked at Shandra with a serious expression on his face. He reckoned that her reasons were reasonable.

Thus, he nodded and provided Shandra with some basic information about Marcos.

Shandra recorded the important details while she listened to him.

Matysh and Marcos appeared to have a harmonious uncle-nephew relationship, but in reality, they were competitors.

If Matysh went to jail, Marcos would be the biggest beneficiary.

Even though Marcos looked like he did not set Matysh up, he certainly did not want him to live comfortably...

Shandra took a bunch of notes and concluded that it would be best to investigate this case without Marcos' knowledge.

Furthermore, it seemed like Marcos had a lot to say to Luke. Considering Luke's connection to the Norman family, they should also keep it from him.

Shandra felt annoyed. Luke reminded her of Walter.

She secretly returned to the country, and he should have known that she came back. Would he follow her back or continue his studies over there?

If he returned, would Luke seek help from Walter for defense?

"It's easy for us to bypass Mr. Marcos in our investigation. He's Russian and doesn't have much influence here. But we also have to hide it from Luke," said Shandra as she leaned back a little to relieve her fatigue.

She had been taking on cases without much rest after she returned. She was exhausted now.

"The old master has made arrangements here. Even though we're from Russia, it's still easy to send someone over to assist with the investigation," replied Ethan.

Matysh’s incident had made the old master, who was in Russia, no longer trust the local citizens here.
