Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 95 Let Zelena Be Your Maid When The Time Comes

Nolan noticed that Violeta had developed a fondness for Wade.

He said, "If you want to see him, you can go to the Ancient Chess Club. He often plays chess there."

"Oh, really? I'll go take a look next time. Thank you."

"No need to thank me."

Violeta glanced at Nolan.

In fact, Nolan was genuinely kind, just like the person she remembered.

He would definitely make a reliable friend, but he lacked the excitement she remembered from their previous life.

"Well, I'll go back now."

"All right."

Before Violeta left, she squatted down and patted Cutie.

She couldn't help but remind him, "Recently, there have been cases of dogs being poisoned. If you have time, please train Cutie to refuse food from strangers."

Cutie was killed by poisoning in Violeta's previous life.

Violeta suspected that Zelena was behind it, but she had no evidence.

Although she had no evidence, it wouldn't hurt to give a reminder.

Nolan was puzzled as to why Violeta would say such things.

But he didn't need to reject a friendly suggestion, so Nolan nodded. "All right."

"Goodbye."

Violeta left the park while holding Tuna.

After Violeta left, Nolan looked at her departing figure and walked in the opposite direction while holding Cutie.

At the end of the month, there was a trade-in promotion.

At the same time, a film crew came to Toland University's performing arts department to select actors, and one of them was the screenwriter, Wade Howell.

This time, the students to be selected were from the performing arts major in their third year. They were shooting a classical drama called 'Night on the River'. Wade was not the main screenwriter, but was asked by a friend to participate in the script revision. After all, Wade had the highest status in martial arts screenwriting and had absolute authority.

In the morning, the instructor informed everyone that the production team would come to the school to select actors. They encouraged everyone to polish their professional skills and assured them that they would have their own opportunities.

The atmosphere in the class instantly became lively.

"Oh my, I envy the junior year students. When will I be able to shoot my first film?"

"I heard that Wade is the screenwriter for this drama. Can you guess who will be selected from the third year?"

"Although I prefer idol dramas, it wouldn't be bad to have such a team for my first film!"Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"Action films are too tiring. Wire stunts would leave marks all over my body. I don't want to be covered in injuries at such a young age

The discussions in the front row reached Violeta's ears.

Violeta lowered her eyelashes slightly.

Yes, action films were too tiring, especially being a stunt double.

But she had been doing this for several years. It was a job no one liked.

Kaylee nudged Violeta's arm. "Vio, do you think Nolan will be selected this time?"

"He will."

Nolan was in his third year and was highly skilled in his field. He also knew Wade.

No matter how you look at it, Nolan is the perfect candidate.

Moreover, in Violeta's memory, Nolan's debut film was indeed a classical martial arts drama. It was his only TV series, and from then on, he became a film star.

It seems that Wade is his benefactor.

Violeta smiled, "Kay, would you like to act in a martial arts film?"

Kaylee readily replied, "Of course! Hehe, I want to be a good actor, but... I don't have the looks of a lead character. It would be nice to be a supporting role that complements the protagonist."

The acting industry was very realistic.

Being able to make a living as an actor was a one in a million chance, or even smaller.

Kaylee knew that she didn't have enough qualifications, so she didn't have high expectations.

Violeta remarked, "You underestimate yourself. Anyone can become the protagonist. You won't be a supporting actor forever."

This statement deeply resonated with Kaylee.

But Hattie's proud tone came through ...

"Wade has previously collaborated

with my mother. He's like an uncle to me. When they come, I'll introduce him to you. Don't worry, I won't wait until my junior year to be chosen. I might even start taking on acting rotes in my sophomore year."

I

"Wow! Hattie, you're incredible. You truly live up to being your mother's daughter!"

Zelena felt a pang of envy in her heart. Hattie had a well-connected mother to support her in the entertainment industry.

However, she didn't show this emotion and instead said, "Hattie, you will definitely become a prominent figure among us in the future! But don't forget to help us along the way!"

Hattie's vanity was greatly satisfied by the envious looks from her friends.

"Lena, you underestimate yourself too much. Don't worry, I will definitely introduce you to good resources when the time comes. We are good sisters, after all!"

"Hattie, you're so kind!"

Zelena smiled and agreed.

Yes, she went through all the trouble to get close to Hattie and cater to her interests, all for this purpose.

Although the Blake family was not lacking in money, they still needed to establish connections in the entertainment industry.

Hattie was the key and guide for Zelena to enter the entertainment industry.

Zelena was meticulously planning every step she took now.

Someone chimed in, "So, Hattie must be the first one in our class to land a role Fenvy her so much.

Hattie, can you please give me ame

autograph? You're going to be a huge star on the silver screen in the future!"

"Yeah, me too! I want an autograph too..."

"Hattie must be the first one, Lena is the second, and the others definitely won't have a chance! Haha."

"Don't be fooled by those who are arrogant in class. The real competition will happen after graduation, don't you agree?"

"Of course, being successful in school means nothing. It's all about who succeeds in the future!"

Their exaggerated laughter reached the back row.

Kaylee rolled her eyes and said, "Vio, they really don't know how to hide their jealousy. It's written all over their faces!"

"Let's just ignore them."

If sarcasm could bring her down, she would have died a million times already.

Kaylee continued, "Vio, it's not surprising that they're reacting this way. The spots for the third round of the campus belle list were announced today, and you're in first envy!

Zetena is still at the bottom you're first and she's tenth.

"Vio, you're the leading lady, so let Zelena be your maid!"

Violeta smirked.

If that day really came, I wonder how Zelena would react.

...

In the afternoon, preparations for the event began outside the performing arts building.

Many people brought out their unused items, ready to exchange them with others at the stalls during the event.

Additionally, there would be a bottle-picking game once the event started.

One bottle could be exchanged for a small keychain, ten bottles for a six-inch doll, and so on. The more bottles, the better the gifts.

The first-place winner would receive a small medal awarded by the school.

The medal may not hold much significance for ordinary people, but for some students who have been penalized, it is the best opportunity to clear

their records!
