Chapter 810
The little girl hummed in response, saying, “It doesn’t hurt anymore. You can stop hitting Zeki.” The little boy fell silent once more, just as he had initially, with his hand still firmly holding onto the little girl’s hand.
Jeanette hurried over and raised her voice. “Did you get into a fight again? Oh, my goodness! Why did you beat him up like that? What have we done to raise a child like you?” When she witnessed the scene before her, she immediately scolded the boy even more sternly.
She could not believe that something like that had occurred during her brief absence.
Meanwhile, the plump boy was still complaining about how the little boy had injured several other children.
Having to contend with numerous adults and confront accusations from others, the little girl simply clung tightly to the boy and repeated, “Zeki, don’t be scared. I’m here to protect you. We don’t have to be afraid of them!”
Rosalie could not help but sympathize with them. When she was about to speak, Jonathan walked up to her anxiously with the two children. “Rosie, I’m afraid we have to go. We found Kurt.”
“What?” Rosalie was taken aback. “Kurt? You found him?”
“Yeah, we found him. Carlos told me that Kurt is still in Strico!” Jonathan
said.
Upon hearing Kurt’s name, Rosalie almost staggered unsteadily. She wondered if they would be able to locate the whereabouts of the other child since they had found Kurt.
Rosalie suddenly grabbed Jonathan’s wrist. “T-Take me with you!”
“Okay. I’ll bring you along,” Jonathan responded. He then turned to the two children and said, “Daddy and Mommy are going to be quite busy today. We’ll take you to the amusement park next time.”
Guillermo nodded in understanding, displaying his sensible nature. Even Jennifer did not insist on staying at the amusement park. Though she was –still a child, she could sense that Rosalie was about to meet an important
person.
When they got in the car, Jennifer asked, “Mommy, is the man named ‘Kurt’ an important person?”

“Yes, he’s an important man.” Rosalie’s hand trembled when she answered her daughter.
If it were not for Kurt, she and Jonathan could have enjoyed a blissful life. They might have had three children together instead of two, and Rosalie would not have lost her memory and been separated from Jonathan for
five years.
All those miseries were the consequences of Kurt’s actions!
Nonetheless, she could not quite comprehend something that Carlos had mentioned. If Kurt had been determined to execute his grandfather’s order to have her killed before Jonathan so that the latter would give up on her, how did she manage to survive the ordeal?
Furthermore, she also wondered why Kurt had handed Guillermo to the Youngblood family and left Jennifer with her.
The only way to find answers to that was to ask Kurt in person.
“Mommy, you’re shaking. Are you cold?” Jennifer asked all of a sudden. “No, I’m not. I’m just too agitated,” Rosalie replied. She would have been more depressed if it were not for the children around her.
After sending the two children back to the Youngblood residence, Rosalie and Jonathan went to look for Kurt.
The location where Kurt was discovered was an ordinary rental unit. Jonathan’s men were already guarding the house, and Carlos was waiting outside. When the latter spotted Jonathan and Rosalie, he approached and said, “Mr. Youngblood, he’s in the room. We tried asking him about the child’s whereabouts, but he wouldn’t talk about it.”
Jonathan pursed his thin lips, and Rosalie’s hand shook again.
Suddenly, Jonathan reached out and held Rosalie’s hand. “Anyway, since we’ve found Kurt, I’m sure we’ll soon find out where the child is.”
Even if the child had passed away, Jonathan was determined to find out. their final resting place!
“Okay.” Rosalie’s voice sounded choked up.
At that moment, there were several other bodyguards guarding a middle-aged man when they entered the room.
It took Rosalie a while to recognize that the middle-aged man was Kurt. Five years had passed, and Kurt appeared drastically different from what she remembered. While his face lacked many wrinkles, his hair had.

already turned gray. He sported a beard, wore glasses, and dressed in ordinary casual clothes. His appearance made him seem like nothing more than an ordinary man.
If Kurt were to have walked past Rosalie on the streets, she would not have recognized him.
Kurt was a bit surprised to see Rosalie, but he quickly flashed a smirk and asked, “You’ve returned to the Youngblood family, huh?”
Rosalie took a deep breath and replied, “Yes, I’m back.” After five years of being away, she finally returned to the Youngblood family and reunited with Jonathan.
“Wait outside,” Jonathan said to the men in the room.
His subordinates nodded in response and left the room.
“Where’s the child?” Jonathan asked indifferently.
