My Instant Marriage-Chapter 53 Marriage is not a joke

Young-soo followed his father without uttering another word, even his mother, parents-in-laws, and Eunbi were also followed them silently. When they reach Young-soo's office room Mr. Lee asked him, "What you said a while ago was true?"

"Yes dad, it's true I'm going to divorce her soon."

Mr. Lee gave him a tight slap on his face. Everyone was shocked including Young-soo because Mr. Lee has never laid his hands on his son before.

Eunbi walked and stood in between the son and the father by widely spreading her hands to protect Young-soo, "abeonim, don't hit him it's not his fault, everything is my fault."

Young-soo grabbed her shoulder, and made her turn to his side to look at him, "Eunbi, I asked you to keep quiet and stay away from this, my father has full rights to hit me, so you better stop meddling with us." He said and dragged her aside, and lied, "Dad, I plan to divorce her because I'm in love with another woman."

Mr. Lee was displeased to hear that from him, "What did you said? You fall in love with another woman; don't you feel ashamed to say this to us? How could you fall in love with another woman when you are married? Don't you feel like you betrayal your wife?" he asked and gave him another slap on his face.

Tears were threatened on Eunbi's eyes, as Mr. Lee slapped Young-soo.

Mrs. Lee and Mr &Mrs. Yoon were shocked to hear the reason given by Young-soo for the divorce. Mrs. Lee went near to her son, and stood in front of him, "if you love another girl then why did you forced that innocent girl to marry you, why did you ruined her life by marrying her?" she asked him, and grabbed his coat collar, "you're doing this because of that Park Inha, am I right?"

Young-soo maintained his facial expression as if he looks so cold; he never expected that his mother would ask him such question by involving him with Park Inha. He just nodded his head and lied again, "Yes mom, you are right, the reason I'm divorcing Eunbi it's because of Park Inha."

Mrs. Lee was so upset to hear such answers from him, "today I'm feeling so ashamed to tell that you're my son. And I'll never accept you to get marry that Park Inha, don't ever imagine that I'll accept your love. According to me only Eunbi is my daughter-in-law."

Eunbi cried helplessly as he took all the blame by himself. Her mother came and wrapped her arm around her should to comfort her, thinking that she was crying out with despair to hear the reasons from Young-soo.

"Just a while before, do you know how proudly I said to everyone that, I always felt so proud to say that I'm Young-soo's father, but you just spoiled all of my the faith. And with whose permission you decided to announce that you're going to divorce your wife without consulting it with the elders of the family members. You just buried us alive, Young-soo you just buried us alive." Mr. Lee said.

Young-soo was heartbroken to hear such words of his father, but he just maintained his cold attitude by letting his head down.

Mr & Mrs. Yoon couldn't able to say anything, they were still in bewilderment, and they couldn't realize that whether they are dreaming or in the reality. "I've always felt so proud to get you as my son-in-law even I've mentioned it to you for many times. And I've said to my daughter that she was very fortunate to get you as her husband, but you just ruined all my faith." Mr. Yoon said. Followed by Mr. Yoon, Mrs. Yoon also expressed her anger, "I also have very high opinion on you, but I never thought that you would betrayal my daughter. Now I'm feeling sorry to my daughter that why did I keep quiet on the day before the marriage when you asked her to marry you, that day I should have done something to stop the marriage to save my daughter's life."

Eunbi couldn't bare anymore as everyone rebukes Young-soo one by one. She couldn't able to shut her mouth and watch the elders criticize him. She couldn't see him lowering his head down with humiliation, and the way he couldn't able to answer all the question raised by the elders. "Please stop questioning him he didn't do anything wrong, it's all happened because of me, I was the one that first asked him for the divorce."

Young-soo was displeased as Eunbi kept on interfering while he was cope the situation with the elders, "Eunbi I told you to keep quiet, why you're not listing to my words?"

"No, Young-soo I can't keep quiet and watch everything while they criticize you so badly, and I don't want you to take the full blame." She wiped off her tears from her face, "appa, omma, abeonim, eomeonim, what did I said a minute ago was true, yes I'm the one that first asked Young-soo for the divorce, so stop questioning him as if he had done some kind of crime."

The elders were puzzled and couldn't guess who is saying the truth. "Could anyone of you explain what caused you guys to think about the divorce in just six months of your marriage without consulting it with us?" Mr. Lee asked.

"Yeobo, why are you asking them to explain, can't you understand it, how Eunbi could live with Young-soo if he loves another woman that's why she asked him for the divorce first," Mrs. Lee explained and asked Young-soo. "How could you betrayal such a sweet and a caring girl?"

Eunbi didn't expect that her support to Young-soo will turn out again as a criticism. She tried to say that she was in love with another man and that's the reason she asked Young-soo for the divorce first. But she couldn't able to convey that.

Mrs. Lee grabbed Young-soo's coat collars, "why are standing like a rock, open your mouth, and say something."

Young-soo bowed in 90-degree angle, and apologized one by one to the four of the elders.

Mrs. Lee couldn't accept his son's apology, "I'll not accept your apologies nor allow you to divorce her, you have to live together with her in the house till your first anniversary. From now on I'm going to stay with you guys in your house. If you guys decide to do anything against my wish, I'll disown you as my son."

Both Eunbi and Young-soo stayed quietly doesn't know what to say.

"Yes, she is right, first try to live together till your first anniversary, and then you guys decide about the divorce." Mr. Lee took a deep breath to calm down him, put his hand over Young-soo's shoulder, "son, don't think that we are forcing you to live together against your wish, marriage is not a joke, it's your life, so make a wise decision." His father advised him.
