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
"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
Reality hit Ethan so hard that he could not look Shandra in the eye.Thus, he withdrew his gaze.When Shandra left, Ethan said to Matysh, “Mr. Matysh, hang in there. Ms. Cullen and I will bail you out as soon as possible.”Matysh watched them leave indifferently and cursed, “Stupid b*tch, who do you think you are?”If not for Ethan praising her, he would never have gotten himself a woman to defend him!When Shandra left the detention center, she heard someone call her name, “Ms. Cullen?”Shandra stopped in her tracks, turned to where the voice was coming from, and saw that it was a policeman from the detention center.He looked familiar, but she could not pinpoint where she knew him from.Although she used to meet clients here often when she was in A City, the police officers would change, so she did not expect anyone to know her.The police officer trotted over with a smile on his face when he confirmed her identity. “Ms. Cullen, it’s really you. I saw you coming in with a fo
Shandra's mockery made Ethan's face turn sour. However, he did not refute her. It only took a while for Shandra to effortlessly coax Matysh into revealing the truth. She certainly had some skills. Ethan recalled how he had assured her earlier that the testimonies provided by Matysh were genuine. He had been so confident back then, but now he felt utterly embarrassed."Cough, cough. Ms. Cullen, let's get in the car," said the interpreter. He could not help but secretly respect Shandra as well. Ethan claimed to be a world-renowned lawyer, but Shandra seemed more fitted for that title... Shandra brushed Ethan off and said, "I'll take a cab myself, Mr. Ethan. I'll contact you in advance if there's anything to be done."After that, she picked up her phone and opened the e-hailing app. This area was quite remote. She waited for a while, but no drivers accepted her request. Nevertheless, Shandra still refused to get into Ethan's car. Working together with him would lower her IQ.
"Is there a neurosurgery department at Mercy Hospital?" asked Luca. If she was going to a hospital, she did not have to be afraid of encountering fraudsters.Since something really happened to Sarah, she could not turn a blind eye to it. After all, she had already received the call."Yes. Can you come now?" the woman from the other end of the line asked again."I'll head there now." Luca hung up the call and informed Warren.When Warren said he was standing by at the parking lot and ready to drive her anywhere, Luca quickly changed her clothes and prepared to leave.Mo Stone saw Luca enter the office. Luca was wearing a coat and carrying a briefcase. She pulled out a leave application form and asked, "Dr. Craw, are you taking a leave of absence?""Yes. There's something I need to attend to," Luca took the form and filled it out. She was asking for personal leave.She had taken quite a few days off recently. Fortunately, the project had not officially started yet. Her absence wou
Now, Sarah was in a coma. The doctor in charge of the surgery and the department chair were in a state of extreme anxiety like a cat on a hot tin roof.As for trying their best to save her life? They did not have the resources or the ability to do that.Luca ignored the nurse's astonished gaze. She stepped forward and placed her hand on Sarah's pulse.Her body temperature was very low, and her hand was icy cold. It was not a good sign.Luca had seen many people on the verge of death, and none of them had warm bodies. Now that spring was in full swing, the hospital's air conditioning had cranked up the heat.Luca glanced at the bandage on Sarah's forehead, which was stained with faint blood.She then turned around to look at the nurse. Considering the patient’s current situation, it would be the wisest choice to transfer Sarah to another hospital for emergency treatment. “Am I allowed to help her to arrange the transfer if I’m her friend?”The nurse helplessly replied, "It wasn't
The young doctor asked, "Is it Dr. Park from General Hospital?""Yes," replied Luca. She was aware that despite working in different hospitals, the doctors had someone they admired who were in the same field.Johann was someone whom most doctors looked up to.It was an admiration for his medical skills and nothing beyond that."Do you know Dr. Park?" the accompanying doctor asked again.Luca could not be bothered to pay attention to such matters at the moment. The nurse's absent-mindedness earlier crossed her mind, and she said, "Does your hospital have a naturopathy department? Can you arrange for a new set of dry-needling supplies for me? Please put it on Ms. Poplar’s account.""Why do you need needles?" the department chair could not help but ask."Ms. Poplar's condition isn't good right now. Transferring her to another hospital carries risks. If I have the needles, they might come in handy at a critical moment. I'll bear the risks. You don't have to worry about it," Luca imm
