No one knew how much longer Pharaoh had, but the moment a child took root in Freya's womb or an embryo successfully developed, it would bring him a small sense of peace. Freya and Micah were determined. With the hospital director, Wilfred, personally overseeing their case, there was little room for doubt or objection.
