Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 273

Violeta enjoyed her first fondue of the year and posted a few photos on her social media.

The short winter break of just one month ended just like that.

...

Four days later.

Toland University started its new semester.

Due to Violeta's foot injury not yet healed, her registration and related activities were all scaled back.

Kaylee was furious upon learning that Violeta fractured her bone because of an unruly child while skiing.

"Those unruly kids are despicable. Vio, back in my hometown, there's a dog we used to feed regularly. When I returned this year, I found those kids had cut its ears off. And their parents didn't even think it was a big deal. It infuriated me!"

"Don't be fooled by their age. Some of these kids can be really malicious!"

Violeta didn't comment further. She didn't believe in the notion that humans were inherently good.

Indeed, some children were born more like little devils than angels.

As Violeta had expected, Nolan didn't return to school to continue his classes this semester. Discussions about senior Nolan's sudden fame dominated the school forum.

The position of student council president was now vacant, and a new election would be held to fill it.

Violeta's ankle injury prevents her from training at the tennis court anymore.

During the free time between classes, Violeta often spent her time at the coffee shop.

After reporting to school at the start of the semester, Zoren and the others didn't attend classes much. Liam completed the formalities and officially took over responsibilities at his family's company.

Hayden didn't even come personally to report. Rumor had it that he was not even in Quinston and had been in Newham all this time.

Only Zoren and Jasper currently have more free time. They occasionally come back to school to visit clubs.

Before her ankle fracture, the promotional MV for MLSS that Violeta filmed had been released and featured on the official website, sparking a new wave of popularity.

Toland University wasn't primarily known for its film school, although it did have a performing arts department. Each year, only a few students manage to gain widespread recognition.

Toland University emphasized nurturing and developing students' talents and character.

Therefore, when a celebrity emerges from the school, it always causes a stir among the student body.

After the start of the semester, two noteworthy events deserve mentioning.

The first was Nolan's debut in Night On the River, which became a sensation.

The second one was Violeta's promotional MV for MLSS.

With Nolan no longer at school, Violeta had become the prominent figure seen around campus.
