Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 666 I Don't Owe You Anything

Critics were quick to assert that Violeta was heartless, and astonishingly, many of these voices had once been her devoted fans. They had completely misjudged her character in the past!

Amid the swirling controversy, Violeta chose to remain silent, deliberately avoiding the public eye.

Following her official announcement of a relationship with Hayden, reporters eagerly attempted to track him down during her absence. However, they were met with fierce looks from armed guards before they could even get a glimpse of him, leaving them empty-handed. But where had Violeta vanished to during this time?

She wasn't retreating like a turtle hiding in its shell.

Instead, she discreetly traveled to Arlowand.

Violeta took it upon herself to visit Zelena's hometown, seeking out her foster parents, the Cooke couple, in preparation for what lay ahead.

Once everything was in place, she recorded a video intended to confront Zelena from a distance and shared it on Facebook.

The video opened against the backdrop of a bustling market, caught in the soft light of early morning, around 4:00 AM.

It had the feel of a homemade recording; she held her phone as she walked slowly, her face bare and relaxed, her voice carrying her characteristic lazy drawl.
