Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 375 He Took a Beating

Violeta was an artist, and her appearance was her most valuable asset.

It was simple for people to offer kind words.

But when things escalated to this point, few were willing to step up and take the beating on her behalf.

Eugene, however, was willing to do so.

In Violeta's eyes, Eugene was a man of outstanding loyalty and responsibility.

Violeta said, "Eugene, actually, I—"

Eugene interrupted, "Enough, stop trying to talk me out of this. Beauty, it seems like we can't get Wendy. We'll have to come up with another plan."

James sat on the sofa, his posture arrogant.

He asked, "Time's up. Who's going up on stage?"

Eugene took off his coat and stepped forward.
