Walton does develop great affection for Frankenstein. but one of brotherly love. Frankenstein poses as a gift to Walton from god in the sense that Frankenstein helps Walton realise that his obsession with discovering the magnetic north pole, shouldn't be something to take over his life and cloud his sense of rationality. i believe that Walton develops a feeling of gratitude towards Frankenstein for giving him insight to the place where he possibly could have ended up if he let himself be a slave to his passions.

Walton is obsessed with reaching the north pole. He puts his goal over the safety of his crew and himself, only when Victor finished his story does Walton give up on his obsession knowing that obsessions only lead to damaging outcomes.
