Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism



Even without any special insight, Violeta was sure that Zelena was behind everything.

Aster went to look into the blonde waiter but found out he was a temporary worker who had left a long time ago.

She had to report back with only partial information.

Violeta was certain the waiter was involved, so she didn't hold out much hope that he would still be at the hotel. However, with his ID and name, tracking him down wouldn't be too hard.

She didn't plan on taking further action herself.

She input the waiter's information into the computer and sent it anonymously to Ophelia.

Ophelia was more determined than Violeta to get to the bottom of things.

Once she had the information, she would handle it from there, so Violeta didn't need to worry.

Indeed, Violeta was too busy to focus on it.

The premiere of Wind Harbor was approaching, and she was preparing to publicly announce her relationship with Hayden.

Wind Harbor was finished and set to release around the same time as Summer with You.

Evelina was juggling both projects. With Three-Faced Fox recently completed and Summer with You coming up, she was gaining more popularity and was expected to hit A-list status.

The company wanted to push Susan into the spotlight. So, she got considerable exposure when the promotional posters for Summer with You were released.

Evelina aimed to dominate the attention, but the company had other plans.

When Winona brought that up with Lance, he stared at her.

"Don't you know this play is intended to showcase new talent?

"If you didn't realize that before agreeing to the role, it's not my concern."

When Violeta received the script, Eugene had mentioned that the company hoped she would mentor Susan.

Given Violeta's popularity, she wasn't worried about such details because the spotlight naturally followed her.

However, Evelina was insecure and worried about losing screen time to Susan.

Lance remarked, "If you can't accept it, you shouldn't have taken the role. Why are you coming to me now? If Evelina doesn't want to promote the drama, then she should stay away and let Susan go instead." novelbin

Winona was reluctant, but Lance made a valid point.

It was clear from the start that this play was designed for experienced actors to mentor newcomers. As the second female lead, Susan was supposed to have her share of the spotlight.

Ultimately, Evelina was anxious about her popularity and feared Susan might overshadow her.

Even if she was worried now, it was too late.

The official announcement for Summer with You was set to start soon.

Evelina was stressed about competing with Violeta and Susan's popularity, which was a real headache.

Her distress was compounded by

the fact that Shania, her cousin, and

et

Jenny's younger sister, had been exposed by Violeta, arrested, and given a criminal record. Apex would never accept an artist assistant with such a background.

So, the company demanded Evelina's team dismiss Shania.

Jenny was unwilling to let her younger sister leave, causing chaos in their team.

Evelina, overwhelmed, finally offered Shania a monthly payment to stay away from work while still receiving a salary. Shania agreed as it was a good deal.

At the start of the next month, Ophelia's issue slowly faded from the public eye, and she disappeared from the spotlight. Both Evelina and Jacques' teams promoted their dramas heavily, pushing two hashtags to the top of the trending list.

But alongside the drama news, Violeta's relationship was officially announced.

Early in the morning, marketing accounts buzzed and reposted the news on Facebook.

Violeta's page shared a photo with Hayden and captioned, "Not just friends, but more than that."

Frosty's page also posted the same caption, confirming his identity as Hayden.

Fans were stunned,izens were shocked, and Facebook was overwhelmed.

From 8:00 am until 10:00 am, the site experienced a total crash.

It was a historic moment.

No one expected Violeta to make such a bold announcement about her romance!
