Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 639 The Scandal

Ophelia didn't expect that the truth couldn't stay hidden forever.

When she saw the trending news, she shook uncontrollably and fainted.

Meanwhile, Violeta was posing for a magazine cover. Nearby, two makeup artists were chatting about the scandal with Aster.

Upon hearing that, Violeta couldn't help but link the incident to Zelena.

Could Ophelia have taken the fall for me?

She turned to Aster and said, "Aster, bring me my phone."

Aster replied, "Okay."

Violeta checked her phone and found the trending news quite intriguing. Online discussions were mocking Ophelia for being almost 40 and involved in such a scandalous situation. Scandals like this wouldn't pop up out of nowhere. Why was Ophelia being targeted?

Additionally, someone from a particular club took advantage of the trending news, reinforcing the belief that the scandal was true.

In reality, the scandal was genuine, but the club was merely seeking attention.

When those two issues were combined, it all started to make sense. There were even rumors online about Al-generated nude images resembling Ophelia.

For a female actress, it was a devastating blow.

For any woman, especially an actress, it was a crushing blow.
