Chapter 11: Visiting Elizabeth Jones

Jennifer’s POV:

Today was the first day of the training.

Carson only asked us to gather together in order to emphasize how important discipline was, and briefly introduce the content of the training.

Then, he dismissed us and told us to go back and get some rest.

After all, we had just arrived here today.

The formal training would begin tomorrow.

Although the trainees were dismissed, I had to follow Prince Anthony’s order and stay behind in the training ground.

Skylar wanted to stay with me, but I persuaded her to go back.

With tears in her eyes, she took one last look at me before leaving reluctantly.

Everyone knew that I was going to be punished for being late.

All the other trainees left the training ground one after another.

Before leaving, Barbara shot me a gloating smile.

After the other trainees had left, Carson also left at Prince Anthony’s instruction, leaving only me, the prince, and his two attendants in the vast training ground.

“Mr.Jones,” I greeted, bowing to Prince Anthony.

“Have you realized your fault?” Anthony asked in a cold tone as usual.

“Yes.I shouldn’t have come late.No matter what, I should abide by the rules.Since I broke the rules, I have to be punished,” I replied respectfully with my head down.

“Good.” Prince Anthony gave me a nod of approval.

Then, he pointed at the obstacle course behind him and said, “Your punishment is to pass through the entire obstacle course in thirty seconds.”

When I took a better look at the area behind him, I gasped in shock.

On the wide field, there were so many obstacles, such as three-step piles, a ditch, a low wall, a high jumping platform, a single plank bridge, a high wall, and so on.

How would I be able to clear all of them in thirty seconds? It would only be possible if I grew wings and flew over them.

“What? Do you have any objection?” Prince Anthony asked, raising his eyebrow.

“No, not at all, Mr.Jones!”
