    “Mom, did you hear that today was my sister’s funeral?”


    Upon hearing this, Mallory’s expression stiffened for a moment, then she said coldly, “Don’t bother, she


    would only annoy me even if she were alive.”


    Mallory handed the chicken soup to Kiley, “Drink the soup, you’ve had the baby for several days now,


    howe not a single person from the Yoder family hase to visit? Norma wouldn’t n on


    reneging on the 10% share she promised you, would she?”


    A moment of unnaturalness shed across Kiley’s face, “Impossible, I am, after all, the great-grandson


    of the olddy. She would definitely fulfill what she promised me.”


    Seeing Kiley’s determined face, Mallory didn’t say anything more, but still felt a bit strange inside.


    Just as something shed through her mind, Kiley suddenly said, “Right, has no one been to the old


    house?”


    Speaking of this, Mallory immediately beamed with joy, “Didn’t that little bastard get beaten senseless?


    The people at the old house were all busy looking for a doctor for him, even foolishly hoping that he


    could


    be cured!”


    A glint of coldness shed in Kiley’s eyes as she said, word by word, “Pretend you don’t know about


    this matter, and never mention it in front of anyone else, or we’re done.”


    Mallory nodded, “Don’t worry, I won’t say a word!”


    Since Briana’s funeral, Maxim had been living like he was in the office, either in meetings or reviewing


    documents every day.


    Many times when Rayan finished work, he saw Maxim still handling work in the office. He couldn’t help


    but advise him, but Maxim wouldn’t listen.


    Seeing Maxim growing weaker day by day, his face bing more and more haggard, Rayan had no


    choice but to call Norma over.


    Maxim looked at him coldly, “Rayan, who exactly is the one paying your sry?”


    Rayan lowered his head guiltily, before he could speak, Norma


    interjected, “Maxim, Rayan is only looking out for your best interest. Instead of reprimanding such an


    employee, you should be giving him a raise!”


    Hearing this, Rayan wholeheartedly agreed in his mind. Although the sry Maxim was currently


    paying him was far above the market rate, who wouldin about having too much money?


    Maxim looked at Norma with indifference, “Grandma, if you’re here to persuade me, you can leave


    now.”


    Norma asked Rayan to leave, slowly walked over and sat down across from Maxim, opening her mouth


    with a face full of sorrow, “Maxim, no matter how much you don’t want to admit it, the fact is that Briana


    has left. You should pull yourself together now…”


    Before she could finish her words, Maxim interrupted her with a faint expression, “Grandma, am I not


    doing well now?”


    “You were so careless with your health, in less than a month, your body would have copsed.”


    ”


    “I knew what was going on in my mind.”


    Seeing that he clearly wasn’t listening, Norma immediately became angry, “From now on, you must


    come home to the Harmony Vi on time for dinner, and you will live in the Harmony Vi. Otherwise, I


    won’t eat either. I’ll stay here with you. Whatever time you stay up until. I’ll stay up until the same time!”


    Maxim was somewhat helpless, “Grandma, please don’t make it difficult for me…”


    “Did I just make things difficult for you? Maxim, you’re the one making things difficult for yourself.”


    Maxim gradually fell silent, and after a long while, he slowly said, “But I don’t know what else I could do


    to forget her.”

    Every time he thought about his inability to save her, it felt as if a knife was stirring in his heart, causing


    him unbearable pain.


    “Maxim, it’s normal that you can’t let go right now, don’t force yourself to forget. Take some time to rest


    for now, as for the rest, leave it to


    time.”


    Maxim lowered his gaze, his eyes glowing crimson as he said, “I understand, I will return to the


    Harmony Vi in the future.”


    After Norma left, Maxim called Rayan in.


    Rayan had initially thought that because he had brought Norma, Maxim was now nning to settle


    scores. Unexpectedly, he just asked coldly, “Has Isaac been found?”


    “We had a lead, our people had already gone to apprehend it, they `should be able to catch it in the


    next few days.”
