Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 104

The professional course teacher next to him observed that Hattie knew the crew members, so she stayed quiet.

Hattie looked at the vacant chair next to her and proposed, "There's an empty spot over there. If you're okay with it, we can dine together."

The crew members came to the cafeteria as they looked for places to sit.

Considering Hattie is Hannah's daughter, it's highly likely she'll enter the entertainment world eventually. With her connections, there's potential for substantial sponsorship and investment. Waylen viewed this as a chance to honour Hattie.

"Absolutely, let's go. Mr. Howell, care to join us?

Wade chose to stay relaxed and replied calmly, "I'm fine with either option."

After they reached an agreement, Zelena and the two people at the table quickly cleared their trays and waited for their arrival with smiles.

Violeta and Kaylee watched as the crew members moved towards them.

Kaylee whispered, "Vio, do you think Hattie's compliments are sincere or insincere?"

After the earlier incident, it wouldn't take long for the entire school to hear about it.

Hattie had accomplished her goal of gaining attention and recognition.

"Time to move."

"Okay."

As Violeta and Kaylee prepared to depart, Wade noticed them. He recognised Violeta's silhouette and briefly considered calling out to them, but ultimately refrained when he saw them leaving.

Coincidentally, as the two were exiting the cafeteria, Nolan happened to walk in.

Watching them were about to leave, Nolan asked, "Violeta, have you eaten already?"

"Yes, I have," she replied.

Nolan glanced towards the cafeteria and asked, "Did you happen to see Mr. Howell? He visited the school today."

Violeta nodded, responding, "Yes, I did. They're currently having their meal in there."

Nolan grinned slightly. "Then, how about joining me in greeting him?"

Violeta paused. "Is it suitable? Many crew members are around."

Nolan comforted, "Why not? During our recent chess match, Mr. Howell even inquired about you, curious why he hadn't bumped into you at the park. This is a perfect chance to catch up with him. Today's cast list is finalised, so if you delay, you might miss another chance to see him at school. Let's head over."

Kaylee was surprised by Nolan's remarks.

She hadn't expected Violeta to be acquainted with Wade too!

Furthermore, from Nolan's manner, it appeared they had known each other for a while, unlike Hattie, whom her mother had introduced to her.

"Vio, you're remarkably composed. Despite Hattie causing a scene earlier, you stayed calm."

Since her rebirth, Zelena had subtly observed numerous alterations, especially concerning Violeta. Nearly everything linked to Violeta had experienced substantial changes.

Every time she schemed, Violeta consistently eluded with precision, leaving Zelena to doubt herself.

Yet, with Nolan securing a role in a martial arts film, Zelena recognised that while minor details had shifted regarding Violeta, the course of destiny remained unaltered. Everyone's life trajectories remained as she recalled.

Nolan became a star following his performance in "Night On the River."

This production cemented his reputation as a future three-time Best Actor in the entertainment industry.

Just then, Nolan walked over.

Zelena glanced up and noticed his tall frame nearing. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she exclaimed, "Nolan is approaching."

The onlookers lifted their heads one by one, and when Waylen saw Nolan approaching, he declared, "Here comes Nolan, our male lead."

Hearing Waylen's words, Zelena felt a surge of joy.

In the future, she would marry Nolan and become the spouse of a cinematic legend! The more extraordinary Nolan became, the more envious others would be of her.

However, the smile on her face didn't last long.

She soon saw Nolan holding Violeta's wrist as the two walked over together.
