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 shed 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.”
Hearing this, Guillermo couldn’t help but rx. 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 y first? Daddy and I still have something to
discuss with Wrenna,” Rosalie said.
Guillermo looked at Rosalie, then nced 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 apanied 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 mommye 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 cane 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 rtionship?”
“The adoptive rtionship was never legally binding. It was no more than an announcement made
to the public. Hence, all that’s needed for its dissolution is

another deration.” 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 rtionship.
“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 dors 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 rtionship between them. Once Agyness went to prison, Wrenna’s immediate
rtives would inevitably be 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 particrly intense.
