The assistant apologized sincerely. He knew he had made a mistake. If he had taken a moment to think things through, he would not have made such an error.
He was frustrated as well. Even if the suspect was a foreign noble, using such despicable tactics to frame Walter was simply too much!
There was a knock on the lounge door, and a voice came from outside, "Mr. Long, it's time for the court session."
"Okay." Walter picked up the document bag, put his phone on silent, and walked out of the lounge. He entered the first criminal courtroom, took his seat at the plaintiff's lawyer's position, and waited for the session to begin.
Before long, the defense lawyer and all court staff were in place, ready to start the proceedings.
Matysh sat at the defendant's table with a grim expression on his face. He noticed that Marcos was also present.
His expression grew even darker.
Did he come here just to watch how these A City citizens were targeting him?
Matysh was really annoyed. Ethan had repeatedly assured him that this plan would definitely succeed, but it turned out like this.
Not only did the mercenaries fail to take him away, but they were also completely taken down. Now, he was sitting here, facing the judgment of A City’s law.
Matysh could not wrap his head around it. He had always thought that he could still escape. How did everything suddenly turn out like this?
He was about to face judgment.
Every one of them looked at him with disdain. Was prison in his future?
Sitting next to Matysh was an interpreter who had been arranged by Ethan. Ethan had insisted on putting on a full show even though they were planning to break Matysh out. They needed to appear sincere to the city’s authorities to lower their guard.
Matysh thought he did not need the interpreter, but now, he did.
Matysh scanned the courtroom, his gaze finally settling on Marcos.
He was also looking back at him.
Marcos' expression was calm, but Matysh could sense his emotions underneath.
There was excitement and pride. It was as though he had finally settled an old score.
Matysh narrowed his eyes. He was now trapped in A City, and he could not believe that a nobody who had never dared to stand up to him before was challenging him!
He turned his attention back as the interpreter began translating.
Matysh did not understand the proceedings, so he had to rely on his defense attorney. By the end of the morning, there was no verdict yet, but Matysh did not see this as a good sign.
When the interpreter told him the session was temporarily adjourned and would resume in the afternoon, Matysh knew they were in a hurry to convict him.
He suspected Ethan's failure had raised the authorities' alertness.
Matysh watched the court officers approach him to take him away. Before he left, he shot a fierce look at Marcos.
He knew Marcos had a hand in the failure of his plan. Ethan might be worthless, but the people he paid a hefty sum to were not. The plan would not have failed so easily without Marcos’ interference!
In the end, Matysh could not hold back and shouted at him, "Marcos!"
Marcus remained silent. His eyes were on Matysh as he left. Finally, a smile appeared on his lips.
Matysh would eventually have to pay for what he did to Marcos' parents.
Although Marcos did not personally send Matysh to prison, it felt satisfying. At least, Matysh would spend many years in A City’s prison before being sent back to Russia to continue his sentence.
Marcos was confident that once Matysh was imprisoned this time, he could ensure Matysh continued to stay in prison when he returned to Russia.
Matysh had done many terrible things without having to face the consequences. Now, it was time to hold him accountable for each one.
