Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 315 Make it a Big Deal

They were still her foster parents, and after eighteen years of being raised by them, Violeta couldn't forget their kindness. So she still called them Mom and Dad.

The counselor and the academic officer were completely confused when they heard Violeta call them Mom and Dad.

What's happening?

Why is Violeta calling them Mom and Dad?

"It's been a few years, Vio. You've changed a lot," Sharon said, looking Violeta up and down with a bit of a stern tone.

Violeta lowered her eyes and didn't say anything.

Josh said, "Lena had such a big incident at school, you can't avoid the blame! Explain to the teacher that Lena had nothing to do with it."

Violeta smirked. "Dad, I don't get what you mean."

Josh snorted. "You don't get it? What is there not to get? What did you do to Lena at school? If it weren't for you, she wouldn't be in this mess. Do you think you can keep this hidden? Let me tell you, if Lena can't continue her studies, you're going to be in big trouble!"

Sharon said, "Lena always wanted to be a good sister to you, but you treated her like this. No matter how much she suffered before, she never came back to tell us. But you, not knowing your limits, even tried to force her to drop out. How could you be so cruel? How did you become like this?"

Three years without seeing each other, and the first thing they did was blame her.

Luckily, Violeta never had any expectations of them, so she stayed calm and didn't feel anything.

She even felt like laughing at their behavior.
