Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 43

Yellen Bodd twirled his car keys around while he casually paced into Heaton Fudd’s office.

As he opened the door, Heaton Fudd and Kush Xavier were currently discussing some work matters. He said, “Yo, uncle, sorry for interrupting.”

Kush Xavier looked toward the sound. He seemed puzzled, “Master Yellen? What are you doing here?”

Heaton Fudd closed the folder and ordered in a calm voice, “You can leave first.”

Kush Xavier nodded and politely smiled at Yellen Bodd as he walked by him.

After Kush Xavier left, Heaton Fudd frowned as he raised his hand to adjust his tie. He spoke in a clear voice, “You wouldn’t drop by without reason. What are you doing in my office this early?”

Yellen Bodd was stunned. He paced closer to him and said, “Uncle, you wouldn’t go back on your promise right? My dad had spoken to you to allow me to work in Fudd Group?”

“Your father has allowed you, but I never promised to.”

Yellen Bodd grinned. He smiled instead of getting agitated, “Honestly, uncle. Are you just afraid of me spending more time with Verian Mont, making her fall for me?”

Heaton Fudd’s eyes dimmed.

“I don’t think it’s suitable for you to work in Fudd Group.”

“Uncle, I haven’t begun working yet and you said I’m not suitable? You’re not suitable with Verian Mont as well. Verian Mont is only 24 and you’re already 32. There's an 8 years difference between the both of you. From how I see it, you’re just afraid that Verian Mont would choose me. Besides, anyone would think I’m more suitable for Verian Mont.”

Heaton Fudd was smart and it would be impossible for him to not notice what that little brat Yellen Bodd was thinking about. However, even if he knew about what Yellen Bodd was thinking about, he unconsciously felt as if he had been trampled all over by that little brat. He said, “Since you really wanted to work in Fudd Group, I can give you a chance. But if you’re just here for the sole intention of getting the girl, we will have nothing to talk about.”

Yellen Bodd was relieved the instant he heard that statement. He had a wide smile on his face, “Uncle! Do I look like a playboy to you? I actually am super passionate about art and I wanted to work in Fudd Group. My father had also said, if I have no results in the span of a year working here, I will immediately return to inherit his business. I am truly sincere about working here and wanted to show some results to my father.”

As for ‘getting the girl’, that would be a side activity.

“Well then uncle, you can carry on with your work, I’ll report myself over to the design team then right?”

Since he noticed Heaton Fudd’s cold demeanor did not stop him, Yellen Bodd immediately left. He was worried that Heaton Fudd would take back what he said.

After Yellen Bodd had left and Kush Xavier walked in with some documents, he noticed Heaton Fudd frowning with a dim expression. He said, “Boss, did Master Yellen add problems to you?”

Heaton Fudd questioned while contemplating, “An eight-year difference? Is that really a huge difference?”

Kush Xavier was stunned, “Are you asking about your relationship with Miss Mont?”

Heaton Fudd’s expression was cold. He was silent. Kush Xavier chuckled and immediately said, “How is that a huge difference, you’re thirty-two and she’s twenty-four. Moreover, your age is when a man exemplifies their elegance. There’s plenty of girls in South City that date men your age when they’re only eighteen. You, at your age now, it’s perfect for girls like Miss Mont.”

However, this was not the common three years would equal to a generation saying, it was eight years apart. That meant, he was only slightly over two generations apart. However, it was common to see older men dating a younger partner in his social circle. Besides, even when Heaton Fudd was to stand beside Verian Mont, they would not be categorized as one of those couples.

If Heaton Fudd was to stand alone, having such a prideful elegance of a man on top of a fit body and model-like slender legs with his extremely handsome face. Without mentioning the twenty-four-year-old Verian Mont, even eighteen-year-old women would be perfect for him.

After noticing his boss’s unchanging expression, Kush Xavier spoke with a weak tone, “Boss, what about that man in his seventies dating an eighteen-year-old girl in the news. There is absolutely no problem with you dating a twenty-four-year-old lady. It’s extremely normal you know.”

His boss raised his eyebrows and questioned, “So you’re saying Verian Mont is dating an older guy then?”

Kush Xavier stuttered. How would he dare imply that. He said, “I, I… I didn’t mean that. You and Miss Mont could never be counted as one of those older relationships. You two are a perfect match!”

Kush Xavier was sweating bullets. Could a man that was in the middle of such trivial love be this serious?
