Chapter 536
Seeing her serious expression, Maxim had Rayan pour her a ss of water and then dismissed
everyone. Suddenly, only the grandfather and grandson were left in the office.
“Grandma, you sit first.
Norma took a deep breath, sat down on the sofa, and said to Maxim, “Terminate the contract with the
Schmit Group within three days.”
“Grandma, business is not child’s y. Currently, the Baldwin Group is targeting the Yoder Group. If we
offend the Schmit Group at this time, the Yoder Group will only have the path of bankruptcy.”
A sh of anger passed through Norma’s eyes, “Aren’t you listening to me anymore?”.
“I wasn’t unwilling to listen, but if you wanted me to terminate my coboration with the Schmit Group,
you needed to provide a convincing reason.”
Norma’s hand unconsciously tightened around her cane, a sh of sorrow in her eyes. She gritted her
teeth and said, “There’s no reason, I simply won’t allow any coboration with Haseton’spany, nor
any association with the Haseton family!”
Maxim lowered his gaze, and after a while, he slowly spoke,

“Grandmother, did you forbid me from contacting Haseton’spany because of the key issue?”
He sent people to investigate the mercenaries of Cold Night, but the results showed that after the
people of Cold Night entered Haseton with Isaac, they disappeared like a stone sinking into the sea,

trace of them could be found.
The people from Cold Night used Isaac for the purpose of the key, and they eventually disappeared
after entering Haseton. Now, Normal doesn’t allow him to have any contact with thepany in
Haseton, which inevitably makes him suspect it’s rted to the key.
And what exactly that secret key was, what it was used for, he still didn’t know up to now.
Norma’s face suddenly turned pale, “Maxim, don’t ask anymore, there’s no good in dealing with people
from Haseton, just listen to me, don’t ask for reasons, okay?”
“Grandma, I won’t agree. Isaac and the people who killed Uncle and Aunt are hiding in Haseton, and
they have already set their sights on the Yoder family. Even if they can hide for a while, can they hide
forever?”
“Hide as long as you can!”
Maxim shook his head, “Grandma, they didn’t get the key. They will look for another opportunity to
harm the Yoder family. And don’t you want to avenge Uncle and Aunt?”
Norma’s eyes gradually reddened as she stared at Maxim, uttering each word deliberately, “Those
people are simply beyond our ability to contend with, Maxim. All I wish for now is for our family to live
peacefully in Bridenville. That’s enough!”
“Grandma, you still don’t understand, if the matter of the secret key is not resolved, the Yoder family
can never be at peace.”
After a long silence, Norma said wearily, “Since I can’t persuade you, I won’t try anymore. Don’t call me
grandma anymore.”
After speaking, Norma stood up and was about to leave.

“What exactly was the key?! What was its use?! Why did someone in Haseton want the key?!”
Norma’s figure suddenly stiffened, then she murmured, “Don’t ask anymore, I don’t want to talk about
this.”
“Grandma!”
Maxim quickly stepped in front of her, looking at her and saying, “Constant concessions will only lead
the Yoder family into an irretrievable situation. Tell me the truth, at least give me a chance to decide
whether to move forward or retreat.”
Norma looked up at him, the determination in Maxim’s eyes involuntarily made her nose sting.
She almost forgot, her grandson had already grown up into an adult, capable of shouldering a world of
responsibilities.
“Alright, I’ll tell you everything.” After taking a deep breath, Norma turned around and went back to the
couch.
An hourter, she finally left Maxim’s office.
No one knew what they had discussed in the office. Only after she left, Maxim called Rayan into the
office and said coldly, “Start deploying our people in Haseton, the more the better.
Rayan was full of doubts, but he didn’t ask. He nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll get on it right away!”
After Rayan left, Maxim rubbed his brow, feeling heavy-hearted.
After knowing what his grandmother had said, he had no intention of backing down at all, but decided
to fight hard. Even if he lost terribly, he would not regret it!

“Buzz buzz!”
The phone on the table suddenly rang.
Seeing it was Briana, a touch of warmth crossed the cold depths of his eyes.
“Briana, what happened?”
“Maxim, I saw that the Baldwin Group was dealing with the Yoder Group. Was it because of what I did
to Albert before that angered him, so he is now retaliating against the Yoder Group?”
