Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 359

'Hey, guess what? A friend of mine in the industry told me that Violeta purchased the dress she wore tonight. Can you believe it? Buying houte couture on your own, like, seriously?'

'Is she trying to compete with Lydia? Lydia's dress is also a global first wear, but Violeta's trending way ahead of her. No way her team didn't orchestrate this. I mean, come on!'

'She's just a rookie who just entered this industry, but she's already so aggressive. Her ambition is practically written all over her face.'

'Just look at her! You can tell she's not someone to mess with. She's got that 'bad girl' vibe!'

Violeta had just returned to her apartment and finished her shower when she saw the trending topic.

The Clio Charity Night had barely ended, and already, the trending searches were turning into a battlefield against Violeta.

Photos from the red carpet were swiftly released, and the media, with their keen gossip senses far surpassed all netizens, had already dissected every detail of Violeta's houte couture.

Tonight, it wasn't just Lydia who was displeased with Violeta. Several other stars in haute couture were also upset.

However, since Violeta wasn't a direct threat to them, they didn't take action.

Violeta was making quite the splash tonight!

Naturally, someone was bound to teach her a lesson.

Lydia orchestrated the trending topic, and Eugene found out quickly.

He called Violeta.

"Hey, Beauty, don't let the trending topic get to you. By tomorrow morning, everything will be clear."

Violeta browsed Facebook on her alternate account and asked, "What's happened?"

Eugene chuckled softly. "Let them make a fuss. The bigger the uproar, the better for us. SEVITL had contacted us about an endorsement deal tonight.

"Initially, they were planning to announce it this week, but with all this commotion, we'll sign the contract tonight and make the official announcement tomorrow morning."

So, the bigger the trending topic, the better the buzz for tomorrow's official announcement.

Previously, Irene had mentioned on the phone that SEVITL's Artea-Pacifica president was very optimistic about Violeta and wanted to collaborate with her.

She didn't expect that the company would contact them so soon.

Violeta knew her mom was behind this.

"Mr. Scott, I'll leave it to you then."

"Just rest assured, Beauty. Go to sleep early. Felix will pick you up at 08:00 AM tomorrow."

"Alright."
