Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 84 Zelena, You're Quite Hateful

Casey found Violeta's smile to be mocking.

She stared at Violeta and felt an intense hatred towards her.

The situation at the scene was incredibly chaotic.

The Minister of External Affairs Department took the microphone and announced, "We will launch an investigation into this matter. Casey, Zelena, do not rush to admit your mistakes. We will uncover the truth." Casey left the stage silently.

Violeta's lips curled up slightly as she turned her head to look at Zelena below the stage. Her gaze was filled with a hint of mockery.

Zelena met her gaze, a flicker of darkness passing through her eyes.

The two of them locked eyes from a distance.

This feeling was peculiar.

It was as if they were lifelong archenemies, the ones who understood each other the most.

Casey's appearance brought about a tremendous change in the situation.

Having been a member of the dance club for two years, no one had expected Casey to be the mastermind. After stepping down from the stage, everyone in the dance club swarmed around her. This time, Violeta couldn't expose Zelena, but she wasn't too regretful about it. She knew it wouldn't be easy for Zelena to reveal such a significant flaw, so she hadn't had high hopes to begin with. She believed the matter had already come to an end.

But unexpectedly, the senior from the tennis club in charge of the campus belle competition also took the microphone and walked onto the stage at some point.

"Everyone, please wait a moment. Now that the incident of the props being destroyed has come to an end, there is still one thing I need to address publicly. Zelena, I have a question for you!" The audience erupted in uproar, but they returned to their seats and eagerly awaited the revelation.

It seems like they will witness a very interesting drama today!

This is so exciting!

The senior gave Violeta a reassuring look.
