Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 488

Hayden said, "I'm not exactly sure, but I should be able to make it to the set on time."

Violeta felt a twinge of disappointment. She said, "Alright, work comes first. I'm busy, too. Oh, my assistant is calling; I have to go. The car downstairs is waiting for me."

Hayden gave a quick affirmative.

Violeta switched the call to Aster.

Aster asked, "Ms. White, are you up?"

Today, Violeta was moving a bit slower than usual, making Aster think she hadn't gotten up yet.

Violeta's voice was bright and energetic, "Yes, I'm up. I got delayed by a call, but I'm coming down now."

"Alright," Aster replied.

Violeta quickly applied some skincare, changed her clothes, and headed out the door.

As she got into the car, she remembered that Hayden's return coincided with the scheduled premiere of her new drama in July.

She wondered which would come first—the premiere or his arrival.

Half a month later.

The drama 'Firelight' starring Hattie and Alaric premiered on a local channel. It quickly gained popularity as a romantic series with appealing leads.

Brands that had terminated contracts with Lydia started looking for new celebrities to collaborate with.

Ophelia's team secured some of these opportunities.

While others went to top-tier actresses. Violeta received an offer from a luxury brand, but another luxury brand was still searching for the right fit.

The competition between Zelena and Hattie was fierce, with both teams vying for dominance.

They never expected Tracy to swoop in and snatch the deal after finishing 'Sea Breeze'.

Tracy's last-minute win stunned both Zelena and Hattie's teams, making Tracy a new rival to both.

Originally, Zelena and Hattie were fierce rivals.

However, Tracy seized this opportunity, forcefully inserting herself into their rivalry and becoming a thorn in both teams' sides.

Apex Entertainment was delighted.

Their two newly promoted actresses were top-tier, essentially two money trees.

Violeta, however, was an all-around actress. She was the top, the queen.

The public speculated about whether they were really together, but neither team responded to the rumours.

The fans went wild with excitement.

Hattie's popularity skyrocketed.

Alaric rose from a third-tier actor to a notable star. Whether his fame would last was uncertain, but he had experienced a taste of fame.

This situation benefitted everyone involved.

'Firelight' was one of the year's best TV dramas.

Hattie and Violeta sat together in the front row at the fashion show. A photographer snapped a photo of them.

Violeta looked calmly at the camera, a slight smile on her lips.

Hattie, with her shoulders slightly exposed, sat back to make her face appear smaller.

By evening, Facebook users had shared the photo over a hundred thousand times.

Fans raved in the comments.

'Ahhhh, Violeta looks stunning! My goddess has such an air of sophistication now.'
