Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 486 Fallen

After finishing a day of filming, Violeta got into her car and headed back to the hotel.

Aster, busy scrolling through Facebook, looked up and said, "Ms. White, did you see that Lydia lost two luxury endorsements? Both contracts were terminated." The brands were considerate, stating that the contracts had simply expired.

Lydia, now thirty, has been in the industry for nine years.

The brands hadn't abandoned her.

The contracts were indeed up for renewal, but Lydia's recent scandal had deterred them from renewing.

No brand wanted an artist with a tainted reputation.

Unflattering photos of her from all angles are now flooding Facebook. For a female celebrity, such a blow to her image can be devastating.

Violeta wasn't surprised by the news.

Every artist has a peak period. No one stays on top forever.

Even though she was at the height of her career now, she knew that her time would come.

However, she wouldn't let herself fade away in disgrace like Lydia. After she achieved everything she set out to do, she'd retire on her own terms. Lydia's scandal raged for two weeks before new gossip took over.

Many fans left, but the ones who stayed were loyal.

Three months later, the filming of 'The Island' wrapped up, marking the beginning of summer.

Violeta always took a break after finishing a movie.
