Chapter 857
The thought of what had happened just now continued to traumatize her.
It was not because she almost died, but because he almost became a murderer. She would never want him to kill
anyone for her sake.
“Even if I get my hands dirty, I don’t care,” he murmured.
“But I care.” She said, “Jon, your hands are beautiful and clean. I don’t want you sullying them because of me.”
A glint flashed across his eyes. “My hands… have been dirtied a long time ago. She just doesn’t know about the
devious things that I’ve done. But… If she wants me to keep my hands clean, I will do my best to fulfill her wish.”
As long as it was her wish, he wanted to make it happen for her.
Soon, the car arrived at the Youngblood residence. Jonathan and Rosalie got out of the car.
The three children were already in the Youngblood residence. They were eating dessert in the dining room but were
all looking distracted.
When the three of them saw Rosalie and Jonathan return, they immediately stopped what they were doing.
Jennifer ran up to Rosalie and hugged her, “Daddy, Mommy, what took you so long? I’ve been waiting for a long
time!”
“Didn’t I tell you that Daddy and I went to the police station to tell the police about what happened? And that we
would be back after that?” Rosalie said.
Guillermo also came over. Although he didn’t say a word, his face was brimming with anxiety.
After hugging her daughter, Rosalie also gave her son a big hug. “Guille, you did a great job today and protected
me. That’s why I’m safe.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing this, Guillermo couldn’t help but relax. He hugged Rosalie back with his two arms and fully relished in the
warmth of his mother’s embrace.
“Okay, Guille, can you take Jen to the room to play first? Daddy and I still have something to discuss with Wrenna,”
Rosalie said.
Guillermo looked at Rosalie, then glanced at Wrenna, who had been silent with her head hung low. Subsequently, he
nodded and led Jennifer away.
Gary, who was standing beside them, hurriedly followed the children and accompanied them back to their room.
Rosalie looked at Wrenna, who was sitting in a chair with her head looking down. She said, “Wrenna, your mommy…
Um, she might have to stay at the police station for a while. During this period, other women will live with you and
take care of you.”

Rosalie tried to be euphemistic, trying to prevent what happened to Agyness from having a big impact on Wrenna.
However, Wrenna suddenly raised her head and yelled at Rosalie, “I don’t want another woman to take care of me.
I only want my mommy! You deliberately refused to let my mommy come back, didn’t you?”
“No, Wrenna, listen to me…”
“It’s you, it’s you. My mommy said that you were the worst. It was all because of you that Papa Jon doesn’t like my
mommy!” With that, Wrenna jumped off the chair and ran to Jonathan. She said boldly, “Papa Jon, she is a bad
person. She bullies my mommy. Didn’t you help me with my mommy drive away the bad guys before? Can you get
rid of her so that my mommy can come back?”
Rosalie’s heart skipped a beat. She didn’t expect this child to say such words despite being just five years old.
Jonathan looked at Wrenna coldly. “Who taught you these words? Who told you that Mrs. Youngblood is a bad
person?”
Wrenna was frightened by the look in Jonathan’s eyes, but she still tried to put on a pitiful look. “Mommy said… that
she isn’t a good person. She doesn’t like Papa Jon at all. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have left Papa Jon for five years!
Papa Jon… Mommy and I like you a lot. We will definitely not leave you. Can you drive her away? I… I’ll be a good
daughter, even better than Jennifer…”
“Enough!” Jonathan interrupted Wrenna and said coldly, “You were never my daughter. The Youngblood family
raised you just because Guille wanted a sister, but it doesn’t mean that you can say such words. When you grow up,
you’ll understand what your mother has done. From now on, you’re not allowed to step foot in the Youngblood
residence ever again!”
“Jon, she’s just a child.” Rosalie couldn’t help protesting despite Wrenna’s heart-chilling words earlier. She felt that
telling the truth to a child of the same age as Jennifer was simply too cruel.
“So what? Even if she is a child, she should differentiate right from wrong and know who is in the wrong. She can’t
get away with spewing lies just because she’s young, can she?” When he finished, Jonathan called the servants and
ordered them to take Wrenna away from the Youngblood residence.
“No, Papa Jon. I am your daughter and the daughter of the Youngblood family. I’m better and more obedient than
Jennifer. Why do you want Jennifer and not me…” Wrenna cried loudly and wanted to approach Jonathan.
However, Wrenna was just a five-year-old child, hence easily picked up by the housekeeper. With that, the
housekeeper quickly left.
Rosalie let out a sigh and asked, “Are you still going to dissolve the adoptive relationship?”
“The adoptive relationship was never legally binding. It was no more than an announcement made to the public.

another declaration.” Jonathan paused and added, “Even if you object, I will still announce the dissolution of
adoption.”
Rosalie pursed her lips and said nothing.
She knew that if Wrenna hadn’t said those words just now, Jonathan might not have made such a decision.
Unfortunately, when Wrenna saw her as the enemy just now, it became impossible for Jonathan to maintain the
adoptive relationship.
“What about her future?”
“In the past two years, Agyness has siphoned off much money from the Youngblood family. Otherwise, how do you
think that she can live her current lifestyle when the Youngblood family only gives her 40,000 dollars every month?”
Jonathan said, “Even if Agyness goes to jail, that money is enough for Wrenna to live on.”
Rosalie thought that he had a point. Since the Youngblood family did not formally adopt Wrenna, there was no legal
relationship between them. Once Agyness went to prison, Wrenna’s immediate relatives would inevitably become
her guardians. They could either be her biological father or her grandparents.
Consequently, it was difficult for outsiders to intervene in this matter.
“Don’t worry. I will ask Carlos to follow up on this child. You don’t have to worry about anything,” Jonathan added.
Rosalie nodded. She thought, “This is the only choice now. When the child grows up, she will naturally learn to
differentiate right from wrong.”
That night, the wind and rain outside the room was particularly intense.
