Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 3201 Settled An Old Score

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 city1 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.

Marcos took out his phone and sent a message to Luke, who had been helping him all along: [Thanks.]

Luke quickly replied to his message: (My pleasure.]

Marcos then asked: [How is Mr. Norton?]

Luke responded: [He's in surgery now. We'll know more after they remove the bullet.]

Marcos: [Once you get any updates, inform me right away. I can't swing by the hospital right now. I hope he understands.]

Gordan took a bullet and got injured for intervening in Ethan's plan to help them.

However, Marcos could not visit him yet.

Ethan's men were still watching him.

Even though Marcos was not directly involved in the current events, surveillance from Russia remained relentless. Whether he lounged idly in hotel rooms all day or explored A City's sights, someone shadowed his every move.

Their sole purpose was to keep an eye on him. They documented every interaction and activity, then fed the intel to Ethan, who relayed it back to Russia.

This was the reason why he could not even meet with Sarah.

There was nothing Marcos could do about it.

The family in Russia still pinned their hopes on Matysh. Only when their hopes were utterly shattered could he begin to seize control of the family bit by bit.

His strategy involved unveiling the family's darkest secrets to the world, ensuring the public knew the truth. Ultimately, he aimed to breathe new life into the family.

He wanted to leave the family's dirty past behind once and for all.

Luke: [Got it.]

He was sitting outside the operating room.

When Rain informed him that Gordan had been shot, Luke immediately took him to the hospital.

Johann continued to be the surgeon attending to Gordan. Although the injury on Gordan's hand posed no immediate threat to his life, there was concern it might affect his nerves.

Therefore, the full extent of Gordan's

injury remained uncertain, and Johann could not make any om

conclusions until he completed the surgery. They would have to wait to see if the injury would affect Gordan's ability to carry out his future missions.

reactions and responses, were

exceptionally high.

Thus, the true implications of the current situation would only become clear once the surgery was completed.

Luke sat there waiting. His expression was calm, but a closer look revealed a cold indifference in his eyes.

Gale and Rain were there too. Gale, unable to sit still, began pacing around. Even though he often argued with Gordan, they

shared a deep bond of friendship.

Hence, he was worried about Gordan's condition.

However, his constant pacing annoyed Rain. She glared at him and reminded him, "Can you calm down and sit quietly instead of

walking around?"

"I'm worried about him!" replied Gale helplessly.

"Well, you can't go in there to perform

wait? Take a cue from the boss!" Rain pointed at Luke, who was

sitting calmly and seemed to be deep in thought.

Gale had no choice but to sit down, replaying the events in his mind.

He had been too careless. Their plan had many flaws, and the other party exploited these weaknesses.

Still, there was nothing they could do about it now.

If only he had been able to shoot back then.
