Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 10 Why Are You So Pretentious?

Before the freshman orientation started, Violeta returned to the lecture hall, where Zelena awaited her. The meeting in the afternoon was an excellent opportunity to show off, and Zelena valued it greatly. She brought two extra outfits in case she wanted to stand out among the new students.

Of course, she also brought an outfit for Violeta. After all, she thought Violeta couldn't afford any pretty outfits after returning to her impoverished family.

When Zelena saw Violeta, she handed Violeta a rectangular box with a smile on her face. However, her smile didn't reach her eyes, and a fleeting sinister expression flashed across her face.

"Sis, I brought a short Chanel dress for you. You can wear it at the freshman orientation this afternoon. You'll love it!" Zelena opened the box and took out the dress inside. It was a beautiful, plain, short, white Chanel-style dress. Anyone with good taste would appreciate it.

Sure enough, a female classmate nearby said enviously, "Wow! It's beautiful. It's this season's latest style, right? I saw it in a magazine!"

"Yes. This dress costs over ten thousand. Zelena, you're so nice to Violeta."

"I think this dress is a limited edition. It was in high demand, and most people couldn't get it!"

Violeta had previously given Zelena a hard time, but Zelena was now kindly giving her a gift. Violeta saw through Zelena's deceit, but everyone else was misled.

Violeta glanced coldly at the dress in Zelena's hands. If she remembered correctly, this dress had made her a laughingstock at the freshman orientation in her previous life!
