Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 356 Look Over There

Carmen introduced Hattie to some higher-ups at Clio.

When it came to seating arrangements, Hattie found herself sitting right behind Lydia.

Lydia was the queen of TV dramas, so Hattie didn't want to miss the chance to connect.

With a faint smile, she leaned forward and said, "Hi, Lydia."

Lydia was messaging her assistant on WhatsApp. Hearing the voice, she paused and looked up to see Hattie's smiling face. "And you are?"

"I'm Hattie Ridge. What a coincidence, I'm sitting right behind you, so I thought I'd come over and say hello."

Lydia found the name vaguely familiar. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Oh, you're the lead in 'The Moon Belongs to You"?"

Hattie nodded enthusiastically. "Lydia, have you seen the show?"

Lydia just smiled without answering. She didn't have time to watch that show. She recognised 'The Moon Belongs to You' only because it was a project she had turned down.

A few days ago, her assistant mentioned that 'The Moon Belongs to You' had finished filming and was now airing. The lead actress was the daughter of a veteran actor from Harbor City, named Hattie Ridge. Lydia's silent smile seemed like confirmation to Hattie.

"Lydia, I've watched your dramas before. You're such a great actress! I'm a big fan."

Just then, Lydia's assistant found out where Violeta's dress came from.
