Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 503 Dark Tides

Violeta turned around, and her dark gaze fixed on Evelina.

Sensing the tense atmosphere in the room, Evelina quickly guessed what was going on and smiled at Violeta. She said, "Violeta, I'm really sorry. Did my assistant say something wrong?"

Violeta smiled slightly and said, "She didn't say much, really-just mentioned that my dressing room is soon going to be yours. Funny how I wasn't aware of that."

Evelina blinked innocently, immediately shifting the blame onto her manager. "Oh? Is that so? My manager told me that they would vacate this room for me. There must be some misunderstanding. I'm so sorry, Violeta. I'm new here and don't know much yet. Please don't hold it against me."

When it came to status and commercial value, Evelina was inferior compared with Violeta.

In terms of age, Evelina and Kaylee co-starred in the same movie, making her likely the same age as Violeta, or close to it.

She was politely addressing Violeta, but there was a hint of pretentiousness, even a subtle jab.

Violeta's expression remained unchanged as she spoke in a calm tone, "Even if I were to move, I haven't done so yet. Your assistant already started moving things out of my dressing room. Evelina, do you think that's appropriate? Or are you just so eager to take charge before I even leave?"

Evelina quickly waved her hands and denied the accusation, "No, it's not like that. I didn't mean it."
