Chapter 583 Am I Seeing Things
“Haha, Teagan, Blanche must be incredibly unlucky to have someone like you as her uncle,” Gilbert couldn’t help but laugh.
Teagan, underred, responded with a subservient smile, “Please don’t mock me, Mr. Cunningham. I am simply giving Blanche an opportunity to contribute to the Langford family. Not everyone who desires your favor gets the chance.”
In the open–air training ground at Jipsdale Martial Arts Academy, Blanche was drenched in sweat as she underwent training.
As a novice in martial arts, she had to start with the most fundamental training. Running was one of the basics that could help strengthen her physique and sharpen her will.
Unfortunately, her instructor, Halvard, seemed to be intentionally targeting her.
While the other students were already resting, Blanche was the only one still training.
Every time Blanche slowed down, Halvard would appear behind her with his whip and lash it towards her fiercely, roaring, “Speed! Speed! Maintain your speed! Your martial arts talent is the worst among all my students, so you must train extra hard! If you are unhappy or cannot bear the hardship, you can speak up. I will allow you to take a break,
don’t have to come back starting tomorrow. Go home and rest for as long as you
but you
wish!”
Blanche felt terrible. Sweat drenched her eyes, blurring her vision of the running track before her.
Yet, she persevered and endured.
She knew that this opportunity was hard–earned.
Especially after the downfall of the Mapleton family, the Langford family lost their support. All Blanche could do was rely on herself.
If she compromised or lost this opportunity, she would be forced to marry Gilbert. There was no doubt about how the Langford family would arrange it,
She was unwilling to accept that.
Therefore, no matter how difficult or tiring it was, she knew she had to keep going.

Sweat continued to roll down her face.
It was her unwavering determination that fueled her. She refused to give in, even if she were to faint on this training ground.
Smack!

Halvard lashed his whip once again, striking Blanche’s back. His voice was stern and unyielding as he bellowed, “Stop slacking off! Pick up your pace! If you cannot endure this bit of hardship, how will you ever achieve greater things? Jipsdale Martial Arts Academy is not a place to cultivate your moral character. We are here for talent development. You should have prepared yourself to endure hardship before coming here. If you fail to meet the standards, you will only bring disgrace to the school and Chanaea Martial Arts Alliance. Speed! Watch your speed!”
Halvard showed no mercy, swinging his whip viciously whenever he noticed Blanche slowing down even slightly.
Blanche could only grit her teeth and keep running.
She was unsure how much longer she would have to run.
After all, Halvard was her instructor. If he were to report to the academy that Blanche lacked talent and was lazy in training, her hard–earned opportunity would be wasted.
That was why Blanche could only persevere.
Sweat had completely soaked her back.
Seeing this, Halvard lifted the corners of his lips into a cold smirk.
The reason he targeted Blanche was, of course, because of Darrell.
Halvard had familial ties with Darrell.
Darrell wanted to take out his anger from Emrys on Blanche. Coincidentally, Halvard was Blanche’s instructor, so Darrell assigned him the task.
Moreover, it seemed justifiable for Halvard to give Blanche a hard time under the guise of training.
