Freya entered her home after she got off work. She was exhausted. She saw her mother cooking in the
kitchen.
From what she knew, if Ryan did not come to their house, Mrs. Lynch definitely would not go to the
kitchen. The housekeeper would usually prepare the meals at home.
“Oh, aren’t you making my brother’s favorite dish?” Freya had a look. “This is rare. Don’t you usually
mock your son a lot?”
“Your brother said he’s coming back for dinner tonight. He has something important to say.”
Mrs. Lynch picked the vegetables happily. “I think it’s related to the new girlfriend he found. I guess he
wants to discuss bringing her home for us to meet her. Your brother never stays out all night when he
dates. They might get married very soon.”
Freya’s feelings were complicated. “You can take your time cooking.”
‘I’ll let you enjoy your pleasant mood that’s bound to be short-lived. When my brother returns and
comes clean with everything, you might not have any appetite for a few days.’
Half an hour later, Forrest and Jerry got off work and returned together.
Mrs. Lynch did not ask any questions hastily. After all the dishes were served, she asked her son, “Your
dad said you have something important to tell us. What is it?”
She looked toward Forrest, filled with anticipation.
Forrest’s lips moved. Freya got ahead of him and said, “Why don’t we have dinner first? Wow, this
carrot dish looks delicious. I’ll let Dani have some.”
Dani had already washed her small hands. She eagerly grabbed a carrot and licked it happily.
Although she only had one tooth, it did not stop her from savoring delicious food.
Mrs. Lynch reminded, “Be careful. Don’t let her choke.”
She paused and looked at her son.
Forrest gave it some thought. In the end, he said, “Let’s eat first. We’ll talk after we finish eating.”
He understood his sister’s concerns. His parents might not be in the mood to eat if he talked about it
now.
“You…” Mrs. Lynch was disappointed. In order to get information about her daughterin-law as soon as
possible, she ate unusually quickly. Even Jerry picked up the pace. Ten minutes later, Mrs. Lynch said,
“You can talk now.”
Forrest, who was not done eating yet, had no choice but to put his spoon down. “Mom, I want to bring
my wife back here for a meal.”
“Wife?” Jerry and Freya were both dumbfounded.
Mrs. Lynch was stunned. Then, she glanced at her husband. “Young people nowadays like to call their
girlfriends their wives even before getting married. Did you forget that your nephew who’s still in high
school even changed his girlfriend’s contact as ‘Wifey’ after dating her?”
Jerry and Freya nodded in a daze. However, they found it weird. They did not realize that Forrest
was… that kind of person.
“Mom, no. She’s my real wife.” Forrest did not care. He simply said calmly, “We’ve already gotten a
marriage certificate in secret.”
Bang.
Freya, who was about to get some food, lost her grip on her spoon and dropped it on the table.
She looked at her brother, baffled.
