Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 358

Verian was devastated.

Yandel patted her shoulder and said in a soft voice, “Rest well. I’ll find another suitable donor for the hematopoietic stem cells.”

Verian covered her face with her hands after Yandel and Yale exited the ward. She took a deep breath and tried hard to recall when she got pregnant.

Verian reached out her hand, slowly touching her flat stomach. Her fingers trembled slightly.

Out of all the times, why did the baby come now?

She and Heaton…were divorced…

Her eyes slowly began to turn red.

Aggrieved, sadness, and panic…Verian was at a loss.

Yandel was looking at Verian through the window outside the ward. He ordered Yale, “Is there any news regarding the person I’ve asked you to investigate?”

“Heaton Fudd. He’s a very famous figure in North City. All information regarding him shows that he’s perfect in every way. However, that might all be fake. Otherwise, how could he abandon his wife?”

“Did you find out the reason why they divorced?” Yandel lowered his head and adjusted his cufflinks.

Yale said, “The reason why Heaton got a divorce from Ms. Verian was even more absurd. Heaton’s uncle thought that Ms. Verian was his biological daughter. As such, it meant that Heaton and Ms. Verian are cousins. Because of this rumors spread that…Heaton filed for a divorce with Ms. Verian because he was afraid of being attacked by public criticism.”

Yandel frowned.

“He gave up his own marriage because he was afraid of something that has yet to happen?”

Yandel thought it was ridiculous as well. Judging by Heaton’s status in North City, he must be very weak in handling crisis if he was threatened by such trifling matters.

Yale’s cellphone rang.

After he hung up, he reported to Yandel in a low voice, “Second young master, Heaton is here in North City. He’s most likely here to look for Ms. Verian.”

“Stop him. Riana is emotionally unstable right now. I’m afraid things will go wrong if she sees him now.”

“Yes, second young master.”

…

As soon as they got off the plane, Heaton and Kush were surrounded by a bunch of men dressed in black suits.

Heaton kept his composure and said in a cold tone, “Kush, it seems like they’re going to come at us now. Think you can handle this?”

“I’ve been working under you for so many years but have never had to physically step up myself. However, looking at the way they’re standing, I’d feel sorry for them if I didn’t show my own abilities today.”

One of the leaders amongst the men in black said, “President Fudd, please don’t take this the wrong way. Our second young master wanted us to invite you over to have a talk. We have no bad intentions.”

Heaton frowned and his eyes darkened. Kush whispered in his ear, “Boss, do you think something fishy is going on here?”

“Yandel is an important figure in South City. He’s devaluing himself if he’s such a good-for-nothing.”

The group’s leader laughed and nodded his head politely at Heaton. “It seems like President Fudd knows something about our second young master. Please follow us this way, gentlemen.”

Heaton and Kush entered the black Bentley.

…

The black Bentley drove into the Gaunt’s yard.

The head bodyguard led Heaton and Kush into Gaunt’s mansion.
