Chapter 428 Rejection

Some people recognized the person in the photo with Violeta as the producer of "The Chosen One," leading to speculation that Violeta had already been in contact with the show's production team. Meanwhile, Zelena felt a wave of anxiety wash over her.

If Violeta also expressed interest in "The Chosen One," Zelena knew she wouldn't stand a chance against her.

Violeta currently had both popularity and buzz. If she confirmed her participation, securing sponsorship would be effortless. There would be no sponsors she couldn't attract.

A sense of panic gripped Zelena. "I can't just sit here and do nothing. I have to secure this role," she thought to herself.

A few days ago, Zelena had called her parents. She asked them to come over and have a meal with the producers of "The Chosen One" as potential investors.

They had now arrived in Quinston and were staying at a hotel.

Suddenly, an idea sparked in Zelena's mind. She could have her parents leverage their family connection with Violeta, persuading her to step back from "The Chosen One." Zelena quickly picked up her phone and called her mother.

"Hello, Mom."

The next day.

The producer of "The Chosen One" contacted Eugene to discuss the possibility of Violeta making a special guest appearance as the goddess Elara.

Violeta's status had risen, and her fees had increased substantially, which was beyond their budget.

To persuade Eugene, the producer even brought in an old friend as a mediator.
