Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 346 Caught on Camera



Violeta nodded, "So that's how it is. Well, it's getting late. I'm getting off here. You should head back and get some rest, too." She opened the door, exited the car, waved goodbye to Zoren, and walked through the back entrance.

Zoren watched until Violeta entered the residential area before driving away.

The next day, Violeta was awakened by a phone call from Eugene.

Her eyes closed, and she lazily placed her phone on her face, still half-asleep.

"Hello."

"Hey, Beauty, check Facebook."

"What's going on with Facebook?"

"You're on trendy searchs."

Violeta was speechless

Violeta opened her eyes, put the phone on speaker, and slid to open Facebook to check the trendy searchs.

'Violeta's late-night rendezvous, a man drives her home.'

The trendy searchs were prominently ranked first, and clicking on them revealed a flood of promotional posts by various marketing accounts. Last time, it was Violeta's 'chance encounter' with Nolan, where both studios ignored the online buzz.

No joint photos meant it didn't mean much.

Fans knew this was a common tactic by marketing accounts, so it sparked a brief discussion with no real conclusion.

But this time, paparazzi captured clear photos of Violeta getting into another man's car and the two dining together at a restaurant.

There were photos of them together, and the paparazzi even captured evidence of Violeta and a man appearing intimate in the car. The so-called evidence was a photo of Violeta twisting Zoren's arm

Underneath the exposure, comments flooded in.

'Just got famous and already causing such a stir.'

'If it was a group of friends, we could say it's a gathering, but just two people alone in a car, touching each other, that's hard to justify.'

'The photos are clear. Last time with Nolan was a chance encounter, but could it be an outsider boyfriend this time?'

'Not necessarily a boyfriend, could be a sugar daddy.'

'Haha, fans here, don't rush to defend her. It's common in the entertainment industry for female stars to have sugar daddies. Many hook up with older men. If someone like Violeta found herself a young, rich second generation, she's lucky.'

'The car's license plate is blurred, but you can tell it's a luxury car, definitely a rich second generation.'

'But Violeta is an actress, not an idol. Why can't she date?'

'It feels like Violeta likes to stick to men. Last time with Nolan's 'chance encounter', wasn't that just the team deliberately leaking? Hard to believe.' 'Oh my, laughing at this. Some people in the comments are too obsessed with men. What do you mean Nolan's team wouldn't leak? Let the data speak. 'The Quiet Ode' is much hotter than 'Night On the River'. Now the studio's quiet, and you guys are fantasising here, it's disgusting.'

'Just debuted and already in Wade's drama, who believes there's no one pushing her behind? Just didn't expect the collapse to come so soon.'

In addition to the mocking

comments on the topic, Lydia's fans,

find any scandals or negative information about Violeta, took advantage of this incident to ridicule her intensely. Violeta's Facebook page quickly descended into chaos with the influx of comments.

After reading through the comments, she remained calm.

In her heart, she sighed. Indeed, Zoren's jinx mouth had come true-she made it to the headlines.

It seemed living in Liberty Grove was no longer a secret.

The paparazzi had been waiting for a long time.

Eugene remained relatively calm on the phone, "Hey, Beauty, where did you go last night?"

Violeta sat up in bed, "I went out for dinner last night with my family and some friends outside the industry. I

didn't expect we'd get caught you

about that, Mr. Scott."

Eugene responded, "It's my fault. I forgot to remind you to be careful. It's okay. The studio will issue a statement this afternoon."

The trendy search broke out in the morning, but the statement was issued in the afternoon.

"Why issue it in the afternoon?"

"If you're clean, you don't need to fear gossip. Let the hype die down a bit. It's all good as long as you're really fine."

Violeta's family was definitely from a wealthy family, so even if the studio didn't explain, it wouldn't matter.

Those who dug deeper couldn't find anything detrimental to Violeta.

If it accidentally leaked that Violeta was a billionaire's daughter, that would create even more drama.

The paparazzi knew not to infringe on image rights, so they blurred the photos, which wouldn't affect Zoren.

Violeta wasn't familiar with handling this kind of attention and didn't plan to get involved in Eugene's affairs. "Okay, Mr. Scott, you handle it."

"Hey, Beauty, are you still in bed?"

"Yeah, came back late last night."

"Have you watched 'The Quiet Ode'? Stay home today and watch your own drama."

"Okay, got it."

Learning from this lesson, Violeta knew Liberty Grove was now under scrutiny.

Going out again would be foolish.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Since she had nothing planned today, staying home and watching a drama sounded good.

She hung up the phone, lounged in bed for a while, and then got up to freshen up.

Ms. Silverleaf, the housekeeper, had arranged a nutritious breakfast.

Seeing Violeta emerge from her room, Ms. Silverleaf greeted her, "Good morning, Ms. Violeta. We have an American-style breakfast with oatmeal this morning. Is there anything else you'd like?"

Violeta replied, "Just this, Ms. Silverleaf. You go ahead. Make something light and less oily for lunch. Last night's meal was too greasy."

Ms. Silverleaf nodded. "Sure!"
