Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 527

Tracy was never one to play nice.

When she signed her contract, she was bold enough to mock Violeta.

Every step Tracy had taken to reach her current position had been her own doing—she found her own backers and carved out her own path.

If it hadn't been for the support Violeta received from her family, Tracy would have had a much easier time at the company.

Evelina had underestimated Tracy. She assumed Tracy was someone who could be easily bullied, but Tracy was quick to teach her a lesson.

Violeta handed a tea bag to Aster as she asked, "What's Tracy's current status in the industry?"

"She's an A-lister," Aster replied.

Given her current screen presence and the roles she's been landing, Tracy was undoubtedly an A-list actress.

Although she wasn't at the same level of top-tier stardom as Violeta, she had amassed a decent following on social media before her debut. After starring in The Blind Detective, she had made a name for herself, overshadowing Hattie's performance.

Later, Tracy gained a wealthy backer. The projects she took on were of high quality.

Although none of them were massive hits, her work stood the test of time and had a lasting impact.

The film and television opportunities Tracy received were quite remarkable, solidifying her position as an A-list actress.

With Violeta suppressing her, Tracy had to fight even harder to make her mark.

After Violeta, Tracy was the only artist who debuted around the same time without major flaws.

Her film roles, variety shows, and fashion endorsements, combined with her overall commercial value, were all commendable.

In comparison, Zelena had high popularity, but her film career was average. Who knows what will happen after Spring in Moon City airs?

However, many of her scenes were heavily edited, so there was a chance she might receive more criticism than praise.

Violeta chuckled.

"Tracy is an A-lister, while Evelina is at best a C-lister artist. Even if the company wants to promote her, they can't elevate her overnight. The company is all about profit. They wouldn't jeopardize an A-lister cash cow for a C-lister actress. Even if Evelina complains, what can she do? She'll just have to swallow her pride."

Tracy's confidence in dealing with Evelina stemmed from knowing that her position and commercial value in the company far outweighed Evelina's.

Despite the past grievances, Lucy was a remarkable woman. She had no shortage of high-quality suitors.

After Vivian was imprisoned, Lucy inherited her mentor's legacy and led her dance troupe to win awards worldwide. She has since become one of the country's leading figures in modern dance.

Was Lucy not good enough for Jasper?

No, she could have easily had someone even better.

However, matters of the heart were never straightforward.

Jasper was a wanderer at heart and impossible to tame. Violeta hadn't yet seen anyone who could truly tie him down.

If someone as exceptional as Lucy couldn't do it, Evelina stood even less of a chance.

Could Jasper be considered a decent man?

Women who broke up with him often said he was generous—except, of course, that he never gave his heart away.
