For Federation people, marriage is considered a quite private affair. Before a definite outcome is reached, most people will not publicly announce it to others, nor will they discuss it when marriage is not a possibility.
With the Federation's longstanding monogamy system, when Cook said he wanted to marry multiple women, Lynch found out and mentioned it on the phone, which indeed made him feel a bit awkward.
Lynch, however, laughed and said, "If you knew what I would give you for your wedding, you definitely wouldn't feel embarrassed."
Being one of the earliest people to follow Lynch, actually for just two years, Cook had quietly and excellently contributed, capturing a large share of the road transport system in Sabin City and even the whole York State with Lynch's fleet.
Cook used his connections to recruit truck drivers everywhere and managed to acquire many trucks at a low price. His work cannot be simply summarized as "a truck driver."
