Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 116 Princess

Irene felt immense satisfaction with her prosperous home and her two wonderful children. She nodded in agreement. "Okay."

Everything was ready for their summer vacation.

The next day, Violeta and Niall packed their bags and made their way to the airport to join Hayden, who was already en route to the Yurtlandia Grasslands.

At the same time, Irene and Anton caught a flight to Verdancia.

...

Upon their arrival in East Yurtlandia, a warm reception awaited them, and a private car whisked them off to their accommodation.

They reached the inn by noon, where they were greeted by the friendly staff with bright smiles.

Niall helped Violeta with her luggage, taking it up to the inn's second floor.

Meanwhile, Hayden was engaged in a phone call.

Zoren and his friends headed to the kitchen to place their orders while Violeta ventured into the backyard.

There, she encountered several horses and a young man who was busy feeding them.

Among the horses, a white one with glossy fur and a neatly groomed appearance caught her eye.

Violeta approached and asked, "May I pet it?"

The young man turned towards her, his expression cautious, and as he saw her, his ears flushed red, betraying his embarrassment. He averted his gaze shyly, holding the grass, and advised, "You shouldn't. Princess might kick you. It's best to keep your distance."
