I didn't know much about child education in Jarold City, hence I asked Freya for help on WhatsApp. "Freya, do you know which school is better? It's best if it's a safe place."

Freya always slept late. I wanted to sleep right after I'd discussed this with her and made a decision, but I fell asleep at around ten before she could reply me.

The next morning, Freya called on the phone.

She said, "I'm sorry, I had a social event last night. I went to bed right away after coming back from drinking too much. I've already heard the word regarding Anne attending elementary. If it's convenient for you I'll pick you up in the afternoon. Shall we also take Anne together to have a look?"

That was great. Of course I agreed immediately.

It had been the holidays when I last brought Anne out, and she was always very excited to go outside. The school that Freya recommended was a prestigious school in Jarold City. The environment and security were top notch and the children's family backgrounds were similar to ours. After looking around, Anne and I were satisfied. We decided with the headmaster that Anne would attend school with the children next Monday.

After leaving the school, Freya took Anne and I to a shopping mall. Zachary was going to be promoted to a professor, and she wanted to pick out a tuxedo for him personally.

There were not many people in the luxury brand stores. When Freya was going through the clothes, I was sitting on the sofa and waiting with Anne.

Freya had always been a frank person. Before, when she'd gone shopping, she used to sweep everything home. However, that day, she stared at the clothes in a daze a few times. I couldn't help but tease her "Ever since Professor Holt became your husband, his place in your heart has also skyrocketed, huh?"

After hearing this, Freya turned her head and looked at me with her pair of beautiful eyes. "Was I not good to him when he was still my boyfriend?"

"No, that's not it," I replied with a smile while touching Anne's head. "It's just that it's rare for you to choose something so carefully. Is the promotion this time very important?"

Freya let go of the clothes and slowly moved two steps forward along the rack. She seemed a little absent-minded. "It's okay, it shouldn't be a problem for him."

Her emotions were written all over her face. Naturally, I noticed that something wasn't right. I asked, "Is everything good with Professor Holt?"

Then I subconsciously recalled that Freya had not replied to the message from the night before. Freya was a good drinker, and she was usually the one at the table who took advantage of others. She would never be drunk and not reply to messages. The reason she'd given was poor, but I'd just realized it.

When this topic was brought up, Freya's footsteps paused, but she quickly turned around and faced her back toward me, pretending to be picking out clothes. "What problems can there be? You can't do anything to those women who covet Hendrix, but I will not stand for it. If anyone dares lay a finger on my man, they better not think I'll let them off the hook easily."

Although her back was to me, the aura around her was pretty scary. After all, she was a member of the Moore family. She was prideful, and could not be placated. Therefore, she would really do so. However, looking at the relationship between her and Zachary, such a thing might not happen in this lifetime.

I didn't reply. A moment later, Freya turned around, and her facial expression was as usual as she walked to sit beside me. "I almost forgot. I've sent someone to check up on Anne's custody. They are ready to use the public opinion to influence this case, and have given me a draft. If you think it's fine, I'll have someone release the report tomorrow."

As she spoke, she handed the phone over. When I saw the title, my heart sank.

"Should Same-Sex Couples Raise a Friend's Orphan?"

The picture showed two men in formal suits pushing a baby stroller, but there was a mosaic on the man's face on the right.
