Are you serious?
They met when she was eleven and he was eighteen. That's a hell of a disparity, and their power dynamic is all kinds of skewed. She's relying on him as a guardian, like a pseudo elder brother.
By metric of the half-plus-seven rule, the soonest they'd be able to have a relationship without the age difference alone making it super creepy would be when she's twenty one and he's twenty eight — a full decade after their initial meeting. And yes, the standards of the time are different, but that doesn't make it less disgusting.
Admittedly I can't think of any historical code of chivalry that
specifically prohibited creeping on your bosses eleven year old traumatized daughter, but only because, I suspect, nobody thought they'd have to actually write that one down. Jesus Christ.
TL;DR: Child grooming is bad.
