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.
