I Returned to the Day He Brought His First Love Home Chapter 68: Human Trafficker
"Gordon Lynch?" Grace Winslow frowned, looking at the man in front of her.
He wasn’t a stranger. They had been classmates.
However, he’d been expelled back in junior high for harassing female students, and she hadn’t heard anything about him since.
’I can’t believe we’re eting again.’
Gordon Lynch was tall now, a big change from his junior high days.
Grace Winslow recognized him instantly only because she’d seen him in her previous life; his face was etched into her mory.
The reason was simple: in her previous life, Gordon Lynch had been arrested in ’83 for trafficking won and children and sentenced to death.
"I can’t believe you still rember . It’s been so many years. I almost didn’t recognize you just now." Gordon Lynch had a simple, honest appearance with a square-shaped face, and he smiled as he spoke.
Grace Winslow’s attitude was cold. "What is it?"
"Oh, nothing much. It’s just been a long ti since we’ve seen each other, so I wanted to say hi. I heard you got divorced?" Gordon Lynch maintained his polite, good-natured facade.
"If that’s all you wanted to say, then don’t bother. We’re not that close—certainly not close enough to be prying into each other’s private lives." Grace Winslow coolly refused to answer his question.
’At this point, Gordon Lynch must already be involved in trafficking won and children.’
’In her previous life, she’d seen on the news that he’d started back in ’73.’
’It was difficult just to travel in this era; you needed a letter of introduction to go anywhere. The fact that he had the connections to abduct people and sell them to remote mountain villages ant he was resourceful, to say the least.’
’So why is he suddenly cozying up to ? Don’t tell he’s targeted and wants to sell off, too?’
Grace Winslow was on maximum alert around Gordon Lynch.
Irene Lynch glanced at Gordon Lynch a few tis, and her impression of him was actually quite favorable.
Gordon Lynch really was the type of man that mothers would love as a son-in-law.
"I’m sorry, I just overheard so people talking. I didn’t an any harm. Let treat you to a al so other ti to make it up to you, okay? Please don’t be mad at ." Gordon Lynch scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
Grace Winslow didn’t answer, simply grabbing Irene Lynch and walking away.
Irene Lynch glanced back over her shoulder and whispered to Grace Winslow, "He seems like a nice young man, and he doesn’t seem to mind that you’re divorced. You can’t stay single forever, Grace. You need to find soone caring. How about I ask around and see if he’s seeing anyone?"
"Mom, I don’t want to think about any of that right now. I rushed into marriage last ti, and you saw how that turned out. Just let have so peace for a while, please." Grace Winslow felt a headache coming on.
Irene Lynch sighed. "Grace, Caleb Forrest was an exception. You can’t write off every man in the world because of him. I just want you to find a good, dependable man so you’ll have soone to rely on for the rest of your life."
Not wanting to argue with Irene Lynch, Grace Winslow gave a few noncommittal replies and pulled her along toward ho.
As she thought about Gordon Lynch, the more uneasy she felt.
’He couldn’t still be trafficking won and children around here, could he?’
’She rembered that the total number of won and children Gordon Lynch had trafficked was over two thousand. Many of them had been murdered for resisting him.’
’She had been horrified by that number when she first saw the news report.’
"Mom, I have to step out for a bit. I’ll be back for dinner." The more Grace Winslow thought about it, the more certain she was that sothing was terribly wrong. She decided to go to the police station and file a report. ’The sooner he’s arrested, the fewer people will suffer.’
