Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 314 Clash of Perspectives

Sitting on her bed, Zelena suddenly burst into tears.

One moment she was calm, the next she was crying uncontrollably.

"Mom, you have no idea how much I've suffered at school ... They all bully me. I don't want to go back ... "

Hearing her daughter's sobs, Sharon immediately became worried.

"Don't cry, don't cry. What happened? Tell me everything."

Zelena twisted the events that happened at school, telling Sharon her version of the story.

"Mom, you don't know how hard it's been for me. Violeta... Violeta led the others to bully me. I was elected student council president, but Violeta set me up, collaborating with the factory to frame me! I really don't want to go back..."

Sharon asked, "You're talking about Vio?"

Zelena replied, "Yes, it's her. But she doesn't go by Violeta Blake anymore. She changed her last name to White. Now she's Violeta White." Sharon frowned. "Violeta White? When did she change her name? Has she found her biological parents? She hasn't come back all this time."

Zelena said, "More than that!"

Since Violeta left the Blake family three years ago, she had not contacted them.

The Blakes occasionally thought of her, but they didn't reach out, fearing it would upset Zelena.

They believed that if Violeta was struggling, she would come back on her own.

Zelena never mentioned Violeta during her visits home, not wanting her parents to miss Violeta and risk her own standing.

This was the first time Sharon had heard anything about Violeta in years.
