"Okay. Where did you decide to send him to school?" Freya asked, folding her arms to look at him.
Austin replied, "Royal Kindergarten."
Royal Kindergarten was the best kindergarten in the city, and it was worth noting that the high-tech security measures made it extremely secure. However, the tuition was so high that many wealthy families couldn't afford to send their children there.
"How much is the tuition there for one semester?" Freya asked with a frown as she decided to pay for her son's tuition.
"A friend told me that tuition for one semester is over a million dollars."
Freya's jaw dropped in surprise, but Austin still looked calm. She stammered, her eyes widening in surprise, "Over a million dollars? That's out of my price range!"
"Is it? But my son's safety is more important to me than money. Come into the room with me," Austin said, raising an eyebrow, "I'd like to speak with you about something."
Knowing his father and mother were about to have a private conversation again, Daniel said, "You can talk here. I'm going to my room now."
"Thank you!" Austin smiled brightly as he petted Daniel's little head.
With a serious expression, Austin told Freya after Daniel had left, "My family's situation is a bit special. Daniel is my son, which means he is also always in danger. He can't go to a regular school because he must attend a top-notch school with safety measures."
Freya blinked in surprise. She had never given safety much thought because she was just an ordinary person.
"Daniel has to attend that school? But I don't have enough money to pay for that." Freya said with a frown.
"Don't worry. I'll be responsible for my son's safety and education. By the way, the security measures in your apartment are not enough. You have to move." Austin said, his face was solemn.
Freya raised her eyebrows and asked, "What? Where should I move to?"
"There are some nice apartment complexes close to your office, and I decided to buy you a place there. It's officially your and Daniel's new home."
"How much does an apartment cost over there?" Freya asked, biting her lower lip. She reasoned that if she had to move, she should pay for the house herself because she had some money saved up. She didn't want him to pay for her apartment, after all.
"The apartment is about 200 square meters and worth ten million dollars." He replied.
Freya was once again overcome with frustration. She could never have considered buying a ten- million-dollar apartment with her meager savings.
"Do we really have to move?" Freya became nervous because she was concerned about Daniel's safety.
"That's right. You're welcome to stay with me if you don't want to move. You can feel most secure there." Austin replied. He felt much better once he realized she was concerned about Daniel's safety.
"I'm not going to live at your house! If you've already purchased that apartment, how about you rent it to me? How much does a month's rent cost? I'll pay you." Freya asked as she didn't want to get involved financially with him.
Austin recognized her attempt to distance herself from him, so he raised his eyebrows and replied, "Sure! The rent is ten thousand dollars a month."
Freya's salary was insufficient to cover the rent for such an expensive apartment, so she couldn't help but be upset.
"But... I..." Freya felt compelled to explain to him her financial predicament.
"Don't worry about it, Freya. I'll give you a free rental. I bought this apartment for my son, but you can also live there." Austin cut her off and stood up, saying, "I have to go to the office. Are you going to work now? I can drop you off on the way."
Freya waved her hand and said, "No, thanks!" because she had become the subject of much office gossip after taking a ride in his car. "I'll take my colleague's car to work," she explained.
Austin asked with a frown, "Is your co-worker a guy or a woman?"
"A woman. What's wrong?" Freya asked.
"Nothing! Daniel will be staying with me tonight at my house." Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
"No way!"
"Are you sure you want him to stay in your house with absolutely no security measures?"
Freya couldn't stop picturing the scary scenes in those crime movies after hearing what he had just said. She exclaimed after taking a deep breath, "Fine! But I won't live there until you agree on the
three things I mentioned earlier."
Austin had forgotten what the three conditions she mentioned were. He grunted lightly and said, "There's only one thing I can guarantee. I'll never do anything to you without your consent."
Freya asked skeptically, "Really? You're not lying to me, are you?"
Austin rose to his feet, and the sight of his towering frame made it difficult for her to breathe. "But if you get into my bed on your own, I can't be sure I won't do anything to you," he said, staring at her.
"Don't worry, that will never happen," Freya assured him.
"No, I don't believe you," Austin grunted lightly as if he were the one who would be the victim.
Freya stared resignedly at Austin, who left Daniel in his arms.
Freya then asked Linda to pick her up. Linda was also leaving, so the two agreed to meet at the garage door.
Amber had a sumptuous breakfast in her huge mansion in a posh neighborhood north of the city.
Edgar, who was about to go to work, made his way from the second to the first floor.
Amber smiled and approached him, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Honey, how about you have breakfast at home before you go?" she suggested.
"No, thanks. I'm in a rush. I'll eat breakfast at work." Edgar said, pushing her away because he was eager to leave.
Amber followed him forward with a sad expression on her face. "I'll meet you at the office at noon, Edgar. Shall we have lunch together?"
"Maybe. I'll probably have lunch with a client at noon." Edgar smiled back at her as reassurance, "How about we have dinner together?"
Amber took a step forward and wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him on the cheek. "Edgar, say you love me!"
"I love you, sweetie." With a blank expression on his face, Edgar said.
"I love you too, honey." Amber, however, smiled a happy, sweet smile. After kissing him, she let go of him and walked him to his car.
Amber sighed as she watched Edgar's car pull away, and her expression gradually turned confused. She and Edgar were deeply in love for the first two years of their marriage and spent every day together. However, as his career progressed, he spent less time at home and more time at work.
He rarely had time for her these years. She made him breakfast this morning, but he was so rushed to work that he had to eat at the office. In addition, he often returned home after dark because he had to have dinner with his clients.
Amber made a lot of effort to keep their love alive, but she could tell that it was fading. Amber bit her red lips because she knew she was in a crisis. She believed she had to keep her husband from being stolen away by other women.
Freya, who had just recently moved back to the city, was the first woman Amber thought of. Amber had to admit that Freya was no longer the clueless girl she had been four years before but had become an independent, capable, beautiful woman who exuded irresistible charm.
