Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 432 Zelena's Resentment



"Ms. White," the stylist called out, leaving Hattie and Zelena behind to approach Violeta.

Aster said, "The director wants to adjust the accessory on her head."

The stylist responded, "Got it. Let's add a white flower hairpin."

Once Violeta arrived, the stylist and the team focused solely on her, neglecting Hattie and Zelena.

It left Zelena visibly irritated, while Hattie, even more displeased, walked off in frustration.

Zelena trailed behind Violeta, casting a look at her reflection in the mirror. With a forced smile, she asked, "I heard you weren't keen on taking this role. Why did you change your mind?"

Violeta briefly glanced at her and replied, "I wasn't interested at first. But your parents asked me to look out for you, so here I am."

"You!"

Josh and Sharon clearly didn't mean that.

Zelena was frustrated by Violeta's interpretation of the situation. Though annoyed, she managed to control her temper.

She left the room with Celeste without further confrontation.

Aster, arms crossed and leaning on the table, watched Zelena leave with a smirk.

Serves you right. You brought this on yourself.

Back in her dressing room, Zelena was seething in rage.

Celeste tried to calm her down. "Lena, she's just a special guest with less than 30 minutes of screen time. It's not worth having a fallout with her. Let's endure it."

Zelena snapped, "I know it. But she's trying to make things difficult for me!

"If she wants to annoy me, she shouldn't expect to get away with it!"

Her eyes narrowed with a glint of hatred. She still held a grudge from when Violeta had targeted her store, causing it to close.

Zelena was determined to find a way to retaliate and make Violeta's coffee shop suffer too.

She hadn't had any run-ins with Hattie's team since then.

After spending the day on promotional photos, Violeta ran into Cedric and Alaric in the elevator as she was leaving work.

Both of them were up-and-coming celebrities with promising looks.

"Greetings, Ms. White."

"Hello, just call me Violeta."
