Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 579 Female Star and CEO

"Female star and CEO-this is straight out of a romance novel."

"Plus, Hattie is at the top of her career right now. Announcing her engagement so boldly takes some courage. She must really be into this guy."

"If the dude wasn't good to Hattie, she probably wouldn't have made their relationship public, right?"

"Everyone has the right to choose who they love. It's not like being in a relationship makes someone a love-struck fool, you know? Some people in the comments just can't stand to see others happy." Online comments were mixed.

Some people were supportive, while others were critical.

This just made Hattie even more determined. She figured that the people criticizing her under the guise of "looking out for her" were really just jealous haters who didn't want to see her happy or successful. She decided to stand up for her love.

So, in the middle of the night, she posted another photo of herself with Harvey.

What Hattie didn't realize was that her move only made Harvey think he had her completely wrapped around his finger.

Making such a big deal out of their public relationship meant that if things didn't end well, it'd be a mess to handle!
