Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 108

For this incident with Neil Jackman, Nancy should thank the gods that Heaton did not go and "find fault” with her. How dare she find fault with Verian?

"The Fudd Group will not have any more business contact or cooperation with Neil Jackman."

When the man said this sentence firmly, Verian froze for a few seconds. She bit her lip and asked, "You, you’re doing this for me...?"

"If news that Heaton Fudd's woman was bullied this way spread within the circle, who knows how my image would survive? Besides, working with someone like Neil Jackman would only cause problems sooner or later."

The reason why Neil Jackman was proud in the business circle was simply because of his wife, Cecilia Morgan’s natal family. The Morgan family had some achievements in the traditional industry in North City a few years ago. However, it had been ruined by Neil Jackman during these past few years and there was no possible development inn the future. As such, they were thinking of getting involved in new industries. Neil Jackman not only relied on the Morgan family to do whatever he wanted, he also wanted to get every female employee. Even if it was not Heaton who had taught him a lesson, some other person would have been uncomfortable with it sooner or later.

He was just a person who had suddenly gotten rich so if he was offended, so be it. Heaton Fudd had never been afraid of causing trouble.

Verian's black eyes looked at the man who was driving. Heaton was completely different from her ideal mate, especially his personality. She thought that she would find a man who was easy to get along with, good-tempered, and gentle, with a sunny disposition. However, she found out that even though Heaton's temperament was uncertain, even if this man had completely nothing to do with the word ‘gentle’, she still unconsciously became infatuated with him even more when he helped her out in such a "fierce" way.

"If you keep staring at me with this kind of look, I’ll really think that you want it."

The man's constant cold voice interrupted her fantasy. She blushed and coughed twice. Then, the phone rang.

The caller ID showed that it was Jensen Jacob.

Subconsciously, she glanced at Heaton before hesitantly picking up the call.

Jensen, who was on the other side of the phone, had a sad voice. "Verian, I’m leaving North City early tomorrow morning. I want to see you again. Can you come and see me off...tomorrow morning?"

Leave North City?

Verian did not expect things to happen so suddenly. "Why are you leaving North City?"

"The Jacob Company has declared bankruptcy. Our family is moving away from North City. Maybe we’ll come back in the future, or maybe…we never will."

Verian thought that she would be happy to hear that the Jacob Company had gone bankrupt. Previously, Jensen helped Wanelle to attack her, forcing her and her father to a dead end and ruining her youthful love. She should have hated him, but now that the Jacob family and Jensen had ended up this way, she was a little emotional.

Jensen was also lost for a moment, and his heart was confused by Wanelle. Although he was an accomplice, the one who killed her father was not him.

Seeing her silence, Jensen said, "Three years ago, I was the one who did you wrong. Verian, if I could do it again, I would not be so stupid."

She shook her head. "The thing has happened already, it’s too late to regret it now."

"Verian, I know that you won't forgive me, but I want to see you again before I leave. May I?"

Verian bit his lip, hesitant because Heaton was beside her.

"There is nothing to be said between us, I wish you a good journey."

"Verian..."

Verian hung up the call.

Heaton did not ask and remained silent. She, however, could not hold it anymore and explained: "It's Jensen. The Jacob Company has gone bankrupt. The Jacob family is leaving North City and he asked if I could send him off."

She originally thought that Heaton would directly say something like, "No," but the man had no reaction and just responded indifferently.

Verian did not think too much about it, only that he did not like to talk about Jensen Jacob.

...

Heaton first sent Verian back to the Fudd house before going to the kindergarten to pick up Little Jelly Bean for an injection.

Verian had just taken a shower, changed her clothes, and came out of the bathroom when she saw that a WeChat message had been sent from Guin to her－

"Verian, are you free tomorrow night? Let's go to the movies together!"

Verian said in amusement, "Why don't you ask your boyfriend to watch it? What's the point in asking me to watch it with you?"

"Every time I’m out alone with him, he’s so cold. It's better to get you, the third person, to go with us!"
