This matter was thought to have ended, but Violeta would never have expected that Niall had secretly noted her desire to film Wade's drama and privately sought someone to contact her.
...
A few more days passed.
As the new school term approached, Violeta had rarely left the house since fracturing her bone.
Zoren and the others originally wanted to invite Violeta out to have fun. Still, considering her injury, they hardly ever asked her out, wanting her to rest well at home instead.
That day, Hayden suddenly called Violeta and invited her to play billiards.
Violeta had been feeling cooped up at home, so despite her leg injury, she agreed to go out and have some fun.
Hayden personally drove to pick up Violeta.
Violeta didn't use a wheelchair. Instead, she used a crutch, which was light and not as cumbersome as a wheelchair.
When they arrived at the billiards hall, Violeta and a few others were already there.
When they saw Violeta after not seeing her for nearly half a month, they joked that a day without seeing her felt like three autumns had passed, and this half-month apart felt like it had been over ten years.
Violeta couldn't be bothered to banter with them.
"After playing billiards, let's go out for fondue tonight. I've been craving it like crazy at home."
Since the injury, Irene had the kitchen at home prepare bone broth for Violeta daily, saying it was suitable for her recovery. Violeta ended up gaining five pounds just from drinking the broth!
She must really have a craving for spicy and flavorful food!
"Alright. You must have been craving it badly at home. Hahaha!"
Violeta sighed, "Yeah if only I hadn't gone skiing. I regret it now. You guys have no idea what I missed out on because of that."
Liam asked, "What did you miss out on?"
Violeta replied, "A role! This is a great opportunity for me to debut in a high-quality and well-received drama."
She told them about her involvement with Blind Detective.
Violeta didn't show any regret in front of her family because she didn't want them to worry.
But since they were friends, Violeta didn't have to hold back as much and could share her true feelings with them.
It's impossible not to feel regret.
But giving up is currently the best option.
But undoubtedly, the direct consequence of giving up would be that she would debut later than Hattie, watching Hattie being nominated for the Best New Actress Award.
When school started again, she might be ridiculed all over again.
Violeta could already imagine how those petty people would behave. Still, her stubborn foot injury and bone fracture were just unavoidable facts.
Zoren said, "You missed it, then what? I remember you liked Wade's drama, right?"
Violeta asked, "How did you know?"
Zoren replied, "When I visited your room during New Year's Day, I saw many of Wade's novels on your bookshelf. Did I guess right?"
