Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 445 The Tragic Romance

Zelena was quite unwilling to accept the situation.

But she knew that being unwilling was pointless.

Did she really want to play a supporting role for her rival, Violeta?

No, she didn't.

However, Zelena also understood that focusing on this momentary defeat would be like losing something significant to gain something trivial.

She wasn't as foolish as Hattie, who would give up on acting just because she didn't get the lead role.

Spring in Moon City' was set to develop into a major film IP, with immense influence.

It would become a massive success in the film industry, a classic sure to become a hit.

It was also one of the only two works Wade would be involved in before retiring.

Opportunities were rare; missing out on this one meant it was gone for good.

If she missed out on 'Spring in Moon City', Zelena wasn't sure if she'd have the luck to wait for Wade's 'Triple Blood'.

Moreover, this was a great chance to work closely with Nolan for eight months.

Zelena would never give up, even if she couldn't land the second female lead-she would be willing to take the third female lead. Regretting this moment would lead to a lifetime of remorse.

After the photo session, Zelena turned to Nolan, smiling warmly at him.

Nolan didn't look at her but went to talk to the director.

At that moment, the director called out.
