[Maybe she should have been caught sooner, but that was already in the past for Kay. This Edgeworth was still reeling from Calisto's escape, and even if he knew she eventually got caught, it was probably not comforting to know that it would take seven years before that.

If you hated her laugh, I heard it in my nightmares for months after that incident.
Even seven years later...when she began to laugh again, I felt chills down my spine.

[Then she shrugs.]
Or, we can save the rest for later.
[Were she in his position, a sudden taste of the future would be overwhelming for her, too.]

( But clearly that's not the case, so. )
Later will do.
