Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2824

"Was this specially prepared for me?” Matysh blurted out his thoughts, forgetting that he was in a detention center in A City.

Shandra spoke Russian, so her face immediately turned sullen when she understood what he said.

Matysh’s leering gaze was unyielding as if he were looking at prey. He thought that Ethan had sent him a plaything to make his time in the detention center a little less miserable.

“Mr. Matysh, this is A City’s detention center,” Shandra reminded. The discipline in A City’s detention center was strict, unlike abroad, where they could act one way in the open and another way in secret.

In some countries, some rich criminals could even live a good life in prison.

However, it was different for A City. No matter how rich one was, as long as they had violated the law, they would be treated the same as any other criminal.

Matysh raised his eyebrows, “Aren’t you a feisty one? Hmm, fine by me. Let her in.”

That last sentence was addressed to Ethan.

Ethan broke out in a sweat. “Mr. Matysh, she’s the defense lawyer I found you. Ms. Cullen isn’t who you think she is.”

“How could you get a chick to defend me? Can she even do the job?” Not only was Matysh heavily racist, but he was sexist too.

Shandra grimaced as she took out the contract she signed with Ethan. “Mr. Matysh, since you’ve decided that women aren’t able to defend you, please sign this to terminate the contract.”

She did not think that Matysh was right. This criminal defense case was her first case back in A City.

Shandra knew that if she accepted this case, she would instantly rise back to fame and regain the popularity she previously had in A City.

However, she had been away for too long…

It did not matter how good she was before because after she left, no one remembered her.

There were a lot of lawyers in A City, so anyone could take her place. After she left, she was instantly replaced.

In the first two years of leaving, she would still get calls from people asking her to help with lawsuits, but eventually, she got none.

If it were not assigned to her by legal aid, her past self would have refused such a vile and outrageous case.

Matysh squinted his eyes after seeing how headstrong she was.

Those exotic eyes were full of malicious intent.

Matysh was reminded of the unattainable Luca, who was the reason he was in this situation.

He had to get out of here to teach those people a lesson.

Ethan hurriedly came over to mediate between them. “Ms. Cullen, don’t get him wrong. Mr. Matysh didn’t mean that, nor does he mean to terminate the contract.”

After speaking to Shandra, he turned to Matysh and said, “Mr. Matysh, Ms. Cullen is an internationally renowned lawyer. Once I found out that she had returned to A City, I immediately asked her to be your defense attorney. Ms. Cullen has a lot of experience with cases like yours, so you must trust our decision.”

By ‘our’ he meant to exclude Marcos.

Matysh narrowed his eyes as he looked at Shandra. She was well-dressed, but because of his prejudice toward women, he thought that she was faking it.

However, Ethan chose her, so perhaps he should trust him. “Fine, I trust your decision, but can you please spend some money to make some arrangements for me? There aren’t any women or alcohol in here. It’s killing me!”

Shandra snorted and cursed inwardly before saying, “The detention centers in A City are different from those in Russia. Money can’t get you the things you want here.”

Not only was it impossible with money but personal connections too.
