Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 278

Wade was a man who cherished talent. Apart from Violeta, he was also interested in hearing about other promising newcomers.

"Who else?" Wade asked.

"Violeta."

The room fell silent.

Wade was visibly frozen.

He asked, "Are you also coming to see me for Violeta's sake?"

Hayden stopped mid-sip of his tea. He probed, "Also?"

Wade said, "Sigh! Niall asked me to film this drama. Violeta already had the lead female role reserved for her. Despite not having signed the contract yet, Violeta has already assumed the lead role. You're here now, not only for the lead role, but also for Violeta. Quite a coincidence, isn't it?"

"So, Niall is the one who arranged for this drama?"

Hayden's thoughts aligned with Niall's.

"So, Violeta is the lead character in this show?"

Wade confirmed, "Yes, the lead is Violeta."

Hayden lowered his eyes and smiled gently. He said, "In that case, I'm glad I came. You should film at Veilmist Lake."

Wade brightened up and asked, "No charge, right?"

"Correct."

Hayden gave a clear answer.

Wade beamed. He was overjoyed.

He could reallocate the savings on location fees to makeup and costumes. As such, it would enhance the overall production quality.

Wade was known for his meticulous nature, in which he always sought the best results within the budget.

...

Wade's preparations for the web series quickly became the talk of the town.

The Quiet Ode' was the title of the series. It was a spin-off from his long novel, 'The Frozen Dawn'.

The news spread like wildfire throughout the entertainment industry.

It had been three years since Wade last led a production.

Rumors had circulated that Wade might start his other long novel, 'Spring in Moon City'.

Instead, they unexpectedly announced 'The Quiet Ode'.

Prior to this, the hot topics were 'The Legend of the Blind Detective' and 'The Moon Belongs to You'. Wade's new project had already overshadowed these dramas before they had even begun filming.

A web series!

Wade was actually going to make a web series!

Even the veteran wanted to try out the new direction.

The media quickly caught wind of this.

Reporters seeking information bombarded Wade's assistant's phone that night.

The assistant had to turn off the phone to avoid disclosing any details.
