Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3040

It was the following day.

Luke and Luca made their way down the stairs of Crawford Manor together. Old Master Crawford was already watching the morning news.

He waved at them when he spotted them coming down and asked, "Is this the Russian guy we've been talking about?"

Luke and Luca turned to look at the TV screen at the same time.

A photo of Matysh was shown in the news report.

"Is the court getting ready for the trial?" asked Luca.

"Yes. There's too much attention on his case, so they're fast-tracking all the procedures," answered Luke. Too many people were keeping tabs on Matysh’s case.

Matysh had a special status and background. With his case stirring up a lot of public outrage and involving a bunch of people, all the legal procedures were fast-tracked.

"What about Leia..." Luca knew that the incident causing public outrage with Matysh happened a few years ago. However, once Matysh's trial began, Leia's case would also be up for trial.

"She's on trial along with this case," replied Luke. For individuals with multiple cases and who underwent consecutive trials, especially foreigners, the intervals between them would not take too long.

As Old Master Crawford listened to their conversation, he chimed in, "I heard this foreign guy is quite arrogant back in his own country. He even had dealings with T Corporation?"

"Yes, but it won't affect our project collaboration. Their family’s business is being handled by someone else at the moment," explained Luke.

Speaking of Marcos, Luca asked, "Is Mr. Marcos still in A City?"

Luca did not hear Luke mention that Marcos was leaving. She assumed he was still in A City.

However, could he really afford to put his company matters aside for such a long time?

"Yes, he's still in A City. As long as Matysh's case remains unsolved, he won't return to Russia anytime soon," Luke stated.

This was at the request of Marcos' grandfather, who was more concerned about Matysh's safe return to Russia.

However, Luke was confident that Matysh would not be able to smoothly return this time. He could go back to Russia after serving his sentence here.

"The man you're talking about is the CEO of M Group, right?" Old Master Crawford curiously asked.

"Yes, that's right." Luke held Luca's hand and sat on the sofa. Then, he continued, "They belong to the same big family. Marcos manages the business now, and Matysh is Marcos' uncle.

"Their relationship isn't good, and the family values Matysh. If it weren't for Matysh partying too much and disliking running the family business, Marcos wouldn't have taken over."

"Oh, I see. But according to what you're saying, M Group isn't really Marcos'. It belongs to their family's old man, right? Over the past few decades, I've seen many of these family businesses rise and fall.

"Honestly, there are far fewer family-run companies now, as they're unable to withstand the elimination of the economic tide. M Group can actually still dominate the Russian market. It seems that Marcos is quite capable."

"Yes, he's a good business partner." Luke nodded. He had that impression the first time he interacted with Marcos.

"These family businesses are more complicated than others. You have to be careful in your collaboration. Marcos seems fine, but you should watch out for excessive cooperation. After all, if they change their CEO one day, the company's decisions may change.

"Don't underestimate these people." Old Master Crawford, seasoned by many battles, shared his experience with Luke.

Luke listened attentively. "Don't worry, I got it."
