Rebirth of a Flopped Actress: Career First Love Sequel
Chapter 255: A Lightning-Fast Runner Emerges
Kyson and the others, still smarting from their previous encounters with Olivia, felt briefly vindicated by their classmateโs comments. But their satisfaction was short-lived.
โThis morning is just a warm-up,โ Felix announced, standing with his hands behind his back as he addressed the groups. โWeโll start with a run.โ
Kyson and his group remained unfazed.
โA run? Easy stuff.โ
โThis is nothing out of the ordinary.โ
โLetโs see how the celebrities manage this.โ
Felix added, โTen kilometers.โ
The group collectively froze before breaking into an uproar.
โWasnโt it five kilometers before?โ
Whitney and Jocelyn, unaccustomed to exercise, went pale at the thought of running ten kilometers. Shawn and the others had a better baseline but still felt uneasy.
But thenโฆ
โYouโll need to finish within 40 minutes. Fail to meet the time, and youโll run again,โ Felix added, his tone unwavering.
The announcement drained the color from everyoneโs faces, and even the cadets groaned.
โTen kilometers in 40 minutes? If I could do that, Iโd be an award-winning runner!โ
โDid Mr. Felix wake up on the wrong side of the bed today?โ
โThis is pure torture!โ
Whitney and Jocelyn looked utterly defeated. โIโve never run this far in my life.โ
โForty minutes? Even an even minutes, Iโd still fall short!โ
The two turned pleadingly toward the production crew, but Tobie could only shrug helplessly. The academyโs rules were non-negotiable, even for filming.
โMove it! Start now!โ Felix barked, leaving no room for argument.
The group reluctantly stepped onto the track, dread written on their faces.
Whitney and Jocelyn could barely stand, let alone run.
At the whistle, the cadets surged forward.
Kyson and his group also began running, determined to see Olivia struggle. They couldnโt imagineโฆ

For the first two kilometers, Kyson kept looking for Olivia, hoping sheโd faltered. But as the run continuedโฆ Kyson and the others could barely hold themselves together.
Their typical training covered five kilometers, but todayโs double distance and tight time constraint pushed even the cadets to their limits.
After ten minutes, the group had spread out across the track.
Whitney and Jocelyn were drenched in sweat, looking utterly exhausted.
Shawn and the others werenโt faring much better, lagging far behind the cadets.
Felix watched their struggle with satisfaction, convinced this grueling run would break the spirits of the entertainers and send them packing.
Content with his plan, Felix scanned the field for Olivia. Where was she?
Kyson, running at the front with his companions, had no time to check on Olivia. But then, out of nowhere, a slender figure dashed past them like a streak of lightning.
โWho was that?โ a few boys gasped. Who could run that fast?
When they looked up, their jaws dropped.
Olivia, swift as lightning, had surged ahead, leaving the entire group in her dust. What was even more shocking was how composed she looked โ no sweat, no heavy breathing, just steady, effortless strides.
โDamn! Is she wearing some kind of jet-powered shoes?โ
