Let Me Go, Mr. Hill!

It was not just Freya. Mr. Lynch hit the table and stood up. “What did you say?”

Mrs. Lynch patted her chest. “Forrest Lynch, are you crazy? You got a marriage certificate without saying anything. Did you ask us beforehand? Did you get our permission? Yes, I want you to start a family as soon as possible, but you can’t do that without informing the family first. You’re utterly disrespecting us.”

“Your mom is right,” Mr. Lynch said furiously. “We’re not unreasonable parents. We’re not even asking you to find a woman of similar status. What’s important is that you like her. It’s fine even if her family isn’t very well-off. Your actions this time… are too disappointing.”

“Tell us, what woman did you marry?” Mrs. Lynch’s good mood was utterly ruined. Her son even got a marriage certificate while keeping it a secret from the family. It surely would not be a decent woman. Maybe the woman was exceptionally skillful in seducing men. “She can’t possibly be an improper lady, right?”

“It’s my girlfriend from back when I studied abroad. She’s my first love too.”

Forrest explained, “We planned to get married after returning to Australia back then. However, her family was too high in status. It wasn’t a family that the Lynch family could compare to. She was afraid that her family would hurt me after finding out about our relationship, so she endured the pain and broke up with me. After that, she was forced to get married to a terminally ill man for her family’s benefit. However, not even two years passed when that man passed away. She has been alone all these years. We only met each other again after I came to Canberra. I don’t want to let her pass me by again this time.”

“So, this is her second marriage?” Mrs. Lynch caught the main point. She felt uncomfortable.
Forrest frowned. “So what if this is her second marriage? I like her, and she doesn’t have kids. Actually, you guys have been urging me to get married and look for a girlfriend all these years. I’ve tried to interact with other women, but I couldn’t accept them at all. I can’t deceive myself anymore. I might not fall in love with anyone else in this lifetime.”

Mrs. Lynch’s liver hurt from being angered. No wonder their son would get a marriage certificate before telling them.
