Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism



Violeta needed to figure out what to do with the wolf pups that Tuna would have.

Originally, Violeta had planned that if Tuna retained her wild instincts, she would release her back into the wild to embrace nature.

But now, Tuna was domesticated and wouldn't survive in the wild.

However, Violeta couldn't take care of so many wolves.

Keeping that many wolves in the city was unrealistic.

So, she had to consider the fate of the pups seriously.

The filming for 'Island Homecoming' was scheduled for four months.

If everything went smoothly, the movie would be released around Independence Day.

After shooting, they often had meals together.

It wasn't uncommon to see Violeta, Kaylee, and Polly crowded around a small table eating takeout on set.

Paparazzi lurking for candid shots would often marvel at the sight.

It was rare to see the lead actress, the second female lead, and the third female lead sharing a meal on set.

Two weeks later, Facebook exploded with a trending search.

'A female celebrity with a name starting with L had an abortion and broke up with her partner.'

The entire platform was buzzing.

'A female celebrity with a name starting with L? Lydia Coleman?'

'There are quite a few female celebrities with names starting with L in the industry. Lydia was at an event recently, so it probably isn't her, right?'

'If I remember correctly, there were rumours about Lydia dating someone outside the industry. Did they break up and she had an abortion so soon? D*mn!'

'Wow, everyone, I know who it is, but I can't say. I'm afraid of getting a legal warning. But someone in the comments already guessed it right.'

On her way from the hotel to the set in the morning, Violeta was ambushed by reporters.

Everyone on Facebook was speculating that the celebrity was Lydia.

Lydia and Violeta had some conflicts in the past and even shared the same manager, so many people were eager to stir up drama and came to interview Violeta.

"Violeta, what do you think about the trending search on Facebook?"

Without a word, Violeta got into her car.

Aster blocked the reporters and, with

a smile, said, "Thank you all for coming. Ms. White has arranged for the hotel to prepare hot drinks for you. Goodbye."

With that, he shut the car door.

Felix then drove away.

Aster sighed, "What's this online mess got to do with us? These reporters love to stir things up and drag us into the mud."

Violeta took off her mask. "Aster, what's this trending search?"

Since the search trended overnight, it was clear someone released the big news during the night.

Violeta had just woken up and hadn't checked Facebook yet, so she was unaware of the situation.

Aster explained, "Ms. White, someone on Facebook revealed that a female celebrity with a name starting with L had an abortion and broke up.

"Everyone online is guessing that this celebrity is Lydia. Since Lydia had some history with us, the reporters are here to ask us about it."

Violeta took out her phone and checked Facebook, seeing the trending search with the rare "breaking" tag next to it.

Clicking on it, the top comments were all speculating about Lydia.

Lydia had previously been rumoured to have a boyfriend outside the industry.

If it weren't for Violeta's play

receiving a lot of criticism,

overshadowing Lydia's news, Lydia

would have had a hard time

escaping public scrutiny back then.

If she could be dragged down by a man once, it could happen again.

The news was released at midnight, and it came from the same paparazzo who exposed her before.

Just like last time, he released some

fragmented information first, then negotiated a price with Lydia. Ifthey couldn't agree on a price, the full story would be exposed.

Aster remarked, "This time we won't be her scapegoat. Let's see how she handles it."

Violeta put away her phone and calmly said, "Let's wait and see."

The scandal about the female celebrity with a name starting with L caused a huge stir.

But the next afternoon, the paparazzo who had promised to release more information suddenly deleted his account and disappeared.

Netizens, who had been eagerly waiting for more drama, were left hanging.

'D*mn! What's going on? Did he bail?'

'He was probably bought off, right?'
