Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 634 Compliments

Giulia guided Violeta through the crowd toward Jay.

Zelena watched them but was suddenly interrupted by a male producer who approached her.

"Lena, long time no see. Let's grab a drink and snap a photo, is that okay?"

Zelena looked embarrassed and glanced in Violeta's direction, responding reluctantly, "Right now?"

"Is it a bad time? What are you looking at?"

The producer followed her gaze, only to see a group mingling.

Meanwhile, Giulia had already brought Violeta to Jay's side, their backs turned to Zelena.

Zelena could not tell if Violeta still had her wine glass.

"Lena?"

"Okay, let's just take that picture. Quick," Zelena said impatiently, nearly losing her composure.

The producer was taken aback by her abrupt tone, which contrasted sharply with the calm and gentle demeanor he expected.

Realizing her slip, Zelena forced a smile, "Sorry, I didn't mean to snap. I'm just feeling a bit unwell right now and need to rest soon. Let's take the photo."

"Okay," the producer agreed.
