Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 42

Chapter 42 As You Wish, We'll Have Everything in The Store

Most of the participants in the campus belle pageant come from the

performing arts and dance departments, with a few from other majors. It was widely known that these two departments had the most beautiful girls, so the competition was quite fierce.

To welcome new members, Jasper reserved the Heaven Hotel for a banquet on the weekend. All members of the tennis club would attend the internal gathering, and even some students from other departments would also participate.

The day before the banquet, Kaylee started to feel anxious. So she asked Violeta to go shopping for clothes on Saturday.

When Violeta arrived at the mall with Tuna, Kaylee had not arrived yet, so she went to a beverage shop and ordered two cups of coffee to wait for her.

The owner of the Sunset Cafe finally decided to hand over the shop to Violeta. The couple also stayed in the cafe to continue working for Violeta. Violeta was thrilled with their decision and promised them that she would turn the cafe's slow business around and make it popular!

When Kaylee arrived at the beverage shop, Violeta was sitting at a table wearing a trendy white short-sleeved shirt, quietly playing with her phone. In the bag next to her, a furry head poked out to squint at the sun. This scene looked peaceful and beautiful. The sunlight streamed in from the window, shining on Violeta's profile, and the drinks on the table were emitting a cool

mist.

Kaylee walked over with a smile on her face. "Vio, you looked so beautiful just now! If this photo were used for the pageant, you would definitely be in the top ten instantly." Violeta was replying to a group message when she heard Kaylee's voice. So, she put away her phone and pointed to the drink in front of her. "I got your some coffee."

"Thank you!" Kaylee pointed to Tuna in her bag, saying, "Is this the little wolf cub we found when we went for military training last time? Oh my, why is it sa chubby now? It must be well-nourished!"

Not only that, but Tuna's food was specially prepared, and its meals were much better than those of ordinary people. Tuna opened its eyes and glanced at Kaylee, seemingly recognizing her. It did not make a sound and closed its eyes again.

Violeta picked up her bag. "This little guy is growing too fast. I won't bring it out anymore in the future."

Kaylee smiled.

The two of them left the shop and entered the shopping mall.

Kaylee wanted to buy a dress and spent a long time picking with Violeta. Every dress they liked was way beyond Kaylee's budget.

When they were about to choose a dress in a luxury women's clothing store, they unexpectedly ran into Zelena and her two companions.

Zelena was surrounded by several salespeople, with Gillian and Candy by her side.
