Moreover, Blanche Ingram is portrayed as being a villain. Among the entirety of the novel, Blanche’s morals were far off from what’s considered to be just. She pretends to love Edward Rochester and embarks on a journey of total deceit. When it was falsely speculated that Rochester lost all his money and was no longer wealthy, Blanche’s interest towards him fell faster than anyone could “I told you so.” Thus, proving that Blanche was only captivated by the wealth and status of Rochester. Without having to analyze her further, it’s no doubt in my mind that she is the cruelest villain of all towards Rochester’s character. Throughout the whole story, she plays a role of being a lovable woman whose only intention to love the one and only, Rochester.
