Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 322

No wonder she seemed so impressive, she built her empire all by herself.

On the 13th, Violeta went to the airport early to see Hazel and Nydia off.

Now, Hazel could walk, but Nydia still needed a wheelchair.

At the airport, they said their goodbyes. Hazel gave Violeta a big hug.

"Vio, take care of yourself and keep making great TV shows. Even though we won't see each other, we're still your fans in the Wiltonshire!"

"Okay, you guys take care too. I'll visit you in Wiltonshire if I get the chance."

"Alright, we're off then."

Violeta nodded and stood there, watching them go through security before leaving.

...

After choosing the location for the coffee shop, they began preparing for renovations.

During the holidays, Kaylee continued to work part-time at the coffee shop to earn some extra money.

In her free time, Violeta also spent time at the coffee shop. Across the street, "The Breeze" wasn't doing as well as before, possibly because Zelena had been kicked out.

Strike when she was down.

The drop in business across the street was partly due to the university being on holiday break.

Taking advantage of the situation, the coffee shop launched a new promotion. Customers who tried the new products, posted about them online and 10 likes could get a free coffee.

Even during the slow holiday period, the promotion made the shop busier.

With a new store opening soon in the city center, the future looks bright!

For the new promotion, they needed to put up a standee at the entrance.

As they were about to open a chain of stores, Anton asked Violeta if they should hire a celebrity as a spokesperson.

Instead of spending money on someone else, Violeta thought it would be better to invest in improving the quality of the coffee beans.

Violeta patted his chest and volunteered. "I'll do it!"

Anton asked, "You want to do it yourself?"

Violeta replied, "Yes, Dad. I will be a big star in the near future. I'll be the spokesperson for my own coffee shop."

Anton laughed heartily. "Hahaha. Alright, Vio. You can be the spokesperson yourself."

As soon as they decided, Violeta went to shoot the standee the next day.

A few days later, the standee was ready and looked great. Violeta was holding a cup of their new coffee, with cute blush effects on her face.

The standee was placed at the entrance of Sunset Coffee Shop, and many people were taking photos with it.

At the end of the month, Zelena went to the Breeze to check the accounts and noticed the standee at the entrance across the street.

She rolled her eyes and said, "Who puts their own face on a standee at the entrance? That's so cheesy!"

After she finished checking the accounts and saw that the business had tanked, she fired two of the waitstaff on the spot.
