They did not get the information they wanted, but they did not let her go either. This indicated that Matysh had not exposed her. Mandy thought to herself that Maytsh was still loyal. Although he enjoyed fooling around with women, he did not drag them into this situation even though things had reached this far.It was good.Mandy did not know that Matysh had yet to tell the police that Leia and her were involved in this because he believed that Ethan could protect him. He believed that he would not end up in prison and would safely return to Russia. Why would he expose those two women? If he did expose them, he would be admitting that he had committed such a crime. Even if Ethan could rescue him, the two women might still feel resentful and drag him down once again.Therefore, it was not that Matysh did not want to expose them. It was because he believed he had a chance to get out. That was why he did not hand them over to the authorities.Mandy felt a sudden pain on her li
“Yes, Ma’am.” Rain’s subordinate thought that it was a good idea too.“Carry her to the secret room in the basement and have Surabaya…” Rain paused. When she mentioned Surabaya, she realized that she was still in the Norman Residence.She shook her head and ordered, “Untie her. Then, have Anita give her a change of clothes and dry her hair. Continue with the injections and apply some ointment to reduce scarring.”Changing her clothes and drying her hair was to prevent Mandy from getting sick.As for the injections, Mandy was bound to not wake up for the next couple of days, so she needed the nutrition from the IV drips.Rain did not want to do it herself, so she asked Anita, who was also a woman, to do it.“Yes, Ma’am.” The man carried Mandy out of the chair and walked downstairs.Anita hurried to the secret room after receiving Rain’s orders.While Mandy was being tied to the chair, the man saw her coming over and said, “I’ve got the clothes. Go help her change into them.”Ra
After pausing for less than half a minute, Leia started scolding again, “F*ck you, Surabaya. Once I get out of here, you'll be the first one I kill, you b*tch. I’ll find ten men to rape you. You’ll be thrown into the streets, and everyone will know what a sl*t you are!”Surabaya calmly took a sip of orange juice. It seemed like Leia had a new way of cursing.Where did she learn to curse like that?Surabaya was puzzled, so she looked toward the maid.The maid sighed and shook her head.The movie star who used to be oh-so-famous had become like this. If the media heard about this, she would no longer hold the title of ‘the innocent girl’.What kind of innocent girl would say such things?“Ms. Surabaya, I’ll go downstairs to work. Call me if you need anything,” the maid whispered. She dared not speak too loudly, because if Leia heard her, she would be scolded too.Leia had asked the maid to save her before, but the maid said that it was Jack’s orders and she had no power to do any
"Mrs. Norman, keeping Ms. Norman locked up like that isn’t a good idea. She has poor health, and we don't even know if she's taking her medicine properly," the maid expressed her concern.The pills were pushed through the hole in the door every day. However, did Leia really take them?"Ah, Mr. Noman didn't say anything about it, so we can't release her now." Queenie felt troubled. Leia’s incessant use of vulgar language gave her a headache as well.After Leia returned the supplements she had sent, Queenie became disheartened and decided to follow Jack's advice.Jack said that he wanted to keep Leia in the Norman Residence. Queenie agreed with him as she understood his intentions. She forced herself to muster the determination to do so.The maid could not help but express her thoughts, "I wonder how long Mr. Norman intends to keep Ms. Norman locked up."Queenie remained silent.Jack told her that keeping Leia confined was necessary as they waited for Luke to collect the evidence.
Previously, it was understandable for her to do so when Bianca was around.Leia had always liked Luke. Bianca’s appearance and identity took away some of Queenie's and Jack’s familial affection. It was normal for Leia to target her at every turn.However, it seemed that Leia had given up on liking Luke after that.Her current identity was Luca. The Norman family did not know about it. Logically speaking, there should be no vested interest between her and Leia. Yet, Leia was still targeting her...Luca really did not know why Leia held such a grudge against her. Could it be...?She turned to look at Luke. Her gaze was focused and somewhat peculiar. Was Leia still in love with Luke?Luke raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong?""Nothing. I’m going to apply some skincare products," said Luca as she lowered her eyes and glanced at the hand held tightly by Luke. Luke smiled and released her hand.Luca sat in front of the dressing table, carefully taking care of her skin in the mirror.
Marcos reckoned that a woman like her might be able to help Matysh. "Ms. Cullen, I'm looking forward to your brilliant performance in court. We’re all counting on you to get my Uncle Matysh released."His tone was calm. It was as calm as his smile.Shandra could not figure out how much he wanted her to help Matysh. Of course, she could not sense his reluctance either. He seemed indifferent, as though it had nothing to do with him.Shandra knew that it was hard to fathom this man’s thoughts. Although Matysh's case had nothing to do with him, she felt it was necessary to understand this person. She had no problem dealing with money, but winning this lawsuit would bring her even more."Don't worry. I won't disappoint the client's expectations or Mr. Ethan's expectations," said Shandra as she glanced at Ethan.Ethan was somewhat known internationally, but compared to Shandra's fame, he fell a bit short. She was a renowned lawyer both domestically and internationally, while Eth
Although it seemed difficult to win Matysh’s case based on the existing evidence, the difference between imprisonment of eight to ten years and one or two years was significant. He was now allied with Marcos and had to provide full assistance. If Matysh were to spend ten years in A City, Marcos should be able to fully control M Group."Jason will hand you the documents," said Luke.Walter asked, "Are you the plaintiff in this case?""No, but if you're willing to take it, the other party will be willing to change their lawyer," replied Luke.The criminal evidence against Matysh was uncovered by his people. The victim's parent, as well as Mr. and Mrs. Norman, had all expressed their trust in him to handle the matter. Especially the victim's mother, who had suffered the loss of her daughter and husband. She was falsely accused and blamed for so many years, and her mental state was already deteriorating.Knowing that someone wanted to expose the truth, she reached out to Luke thro
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."Sinc
