Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 272 It's The Thought That Counts

This matter was thought to have ended, but Violeta would never have expected that Niall had secretly noted her desire to film Wade's drama and privately sought someone to contact her.

A few more days passed.

As the new school term approached, Violeta had rarely left the house since fracturing her bone.

Zoren and the others originally wanted to invite Violeta out to have fun. Still, considering her injury, they hardly ever asked her out, wanting her to rest well at home instead.

That day, Hayden suddenly called Violeta and invited her to play billiards.

Violeta had been feeling cooped up at home, so despite her leg injury, she agreed to go out and have some fun.

Hayden personally drove to pick up Violeta.

Violeta didn't use a wheelchair. Instead, she used a crutch, which was light and not as cumbersome as a wheelchair.

When they arrived at the billiards hall, Violeta and a few others were already there.

When they saw Violeta after not seeing her for nearly half a month, they joked that a day without seeing her felt like three autumns had passed, and this half-month apart felt like it had been over ten years.

Violeta couldn't be bothered to banter with them.

"After playing billiards, let's go out for fondue tonight. I've been craving it like crazy at home."

Since the injury, Irene had the kitchen at home prepare bone broth for Violeta daily, saying it was suitable for her recovery. Violeta ended up gaining five pounds just from drinking the broth!

She must really have a craving for spicy and flavorful food!

"Alright. You must have been craving it badly at home. Hahaha!"
