Chapter 658
“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, how come not a single person from the Yoder family has come to visit? Norma wouldn’t plan on reneging on the 10% share she promised you, would she?”
A moment of unnaturalness flashed across Kiley’s face, “Impossible, I am, after all, the great-grandson of the old lady. 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 flashed 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 flashed 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 becoming 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 salary?”
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 salary Maxim was currently paying him was far above the market rate, who would complain about having too much money?
