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.”
Hearing 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. Hence, all that’s needed for its dissolution is
