Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 412 Stuck in Review

Zelena's remarks only served to widen the gulf between Lydia and Violeta. Zelena was merely voicing the frustration that Lydia had been harbouring. Lydia felt that the Best Supporting Actress Award should have been hers.

For years, she had been close to winning it, believing that this year was finally her chance, only for Violeta to take it from her.

Previously, Violeta had overshadowed Lydia at a comeback event and had persuaded Wendy to block Lydia's career shift. Now, Violeta had taken the Best Supporting Actress Award as well. Their rivalry was well-established.

Lydia wasn't about to let Violeta escape unscathed.

However, her years in the industry had taught her to keep her emotions in check, not allowing Zelena's provocations to expose her true feelings too easily.

With a subtle smile, Lydia looked at Zelena. "Lena, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Zelena put on an air of innocence. "I just feel sorry for you, Lydia."

As Lydia continued to remove her makeup with an indifferent tone, she replied, "Life is full of regrets. You get used to it. Maybe this award just wasn't meant for me." Zelena was caught off guard by Lydia's composed response.

She quickly shifted the subject.

"By the way, Lydia, when is your new drama going to air?"

Lydia answered, "Soon. I've heard it's passed the review process and should be on air by the end of next month at the latest."

Zelena beamed. "That's wonderful news! Did you know Violeta's new drama is supposed to air around the same time?"

Lydia's hand froze mid-motion.
