Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism



Carl showed no kindness to her and her mother, even cutting off the card he had provided for Hannah. This was his way of severing ties with them.

Hannah, in tears and snot, begged Carl for forgiveness, but he remained unmoved.

Amber emerged as the biggest winner, looking down from her lofty position at Hannah's misfortune.

As long as she could drive a wedge between Carl and that b*tch Hannah, Amber was certain that Benson would never gain control of the Ridge Group.

There was no way Harvey would divorce Hattie, his ticket to a stable future, which led to a prolonged tug-of-war over their marriage.

Given her status as a public figure, Hattie couldn't risk having Harvey air their dirty laundry; a scandal like that would ruin her career, leaving her constantly burdened by the situation.

She didn't want to give Harvey any money, but he had her by the throat and left her with no choice.

As a result, Hattie was constantly at his mercy, and if this situation were to be exposed, it would be a significant blow to her career.

On the day of the awards ceremony.

Violeta, dressed in a white gown, walked in the center alongside Chad, with Kaylee by her side, as part of The Golden Ages filming team. As they posed for photos, Violeta couldn't shake the feeling that this moment seemed familiar.

It dawned on her that during their walk down the red carpet for The Island, she had stood in a similar arrangement with Kaylee and Chad. Their second collaboration caused the online discussions amongizens heated up.

"The Island earned Violeta the Best Actress Award, how many trophies will The Golden Ages bring home this year? I can't wait to find out!" "Are these three supporting each other, or is Violeta boosting their careers? They really do make a stunning trio together. I hope their friendship lasts a lifetime!"

"I was initially a fan of Violeta, but then I discovered the treasure that is Kaylee, and I've come to appreciate Chad's acting skills as well. It's rare to find male actors who follow Chad's path. I hope we see more stars like him."

"Violeta and Chad are now the two cash cows of Apex."

Once they completed their walk down the red carpet, they entered the venue.

Soft music played in the background, and with the awards ceremony being broadcast live, several cameras were set up in the front rows, poised to capture every moment.

As the cast of The Golden Ages made their way backstage, they suddenly appeared on the livestream. Meanwhile, Evelina, who was currently in the hospital, watched the broadcast intently from her bed.

She sat on her hospital bed, watching the livestream on her tablet.

She envied everyone, but she envied Violeta the most!

Why was she confined to a hospital room awaiting surgery while they got to attend the awards ceremony in Harbor City?

The torment of her illness had twisted Evelina's emotions into a tangled mess.

As soon as all the guests completed their red carpet walk, the award ceremony officially kicked off.

The livestream switched angles, scanning over all the invited guests in attendance, before focusing on the two presenters who took the stage with their scripts in hand.

They began by handing out the smaller awards, gradually moving up to the major ones.

The audience erupted into enthusiastic applause.

Mason stood up and bowed slightly to everyone, embracing a few people nearby before making his way to the stage.

With The Golden Ages being only his second film and already achieving such success, he truly was a gifted director!

On stage, Mason delivered a brief acceptance speech, then kissed the trophy in his hand before making his exit. "The award for Outstanding Scriptwriter goes to Caspian Halt from The Golden Ages!"

There were also a few smaller art-house films from last year that stood out on their own as commendable works.

But if it were to be compared with this year's contenders like Whisper to the Mountain Spirit and The Golden Ages, they simply weren't that impressive.
