Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 403

At home, Irene watched the live broadcast of Violeta winning the award. She was even happier than if she had received the honour herself. Immediately, she ordered a large cake and invited friends over to celebrate the next day.

She then called Violeta.

Violeta had just returned to Liberty Grove when she received Irene's call.

"Mom."

"Sweetheart, your dad and I watched the live broadcast tonight. Oh my, you were amazing! You didn't just win; you grabbed the best actress award right away. Fantastic!"

Violeta could hear Irene laughing heartily through the phone.

She asked, "Mom, it's so late. And you're still up watching the live broadcast?"

"Of course! How could I miss my precious daughter's live show? I need to celebrate your triumph. Here, say a few words to your dad."

Irene nudged Anton, who was listening to the call beside her.

Anton leaned forward and said, "Vio, it's me."

Violeta chuckled and said, "I can hear you, dad."

Anton laughed heartily and said, "Vio, I'm going to invest in ten more stores for you to celebrate your win tonight."

He hadn't finished speaking when Irene interjected, "What's so special about opening more stores? Get out of here."

"Sweetheart, that gown you wore tonight is beautiful. Let the company discuss a collaboration. I'll find someone who can connect with you. You should wear lovely dresses more often. I love seeing my girl look so elegant and out of everyone's league."

"Oh, and those jewels you wore tonight were lovely. Who picked them? Let's buy them to commemorate this award. Let your dad foot the bill!"

Although Anton was a formidable CEO outside, he had to follow Irene's arrangements at home.

Irene quickly organised all the rewards for Violeta's win.

Violeta didn't know how to celebrate, but Irene's promises pleased her.

Holding her phone, she chatted with them for a while, glancing at the late hour.

She urged her parents to rest early, as she needed to bathe and sleep too. There was work awaiting her the next day.

"Alright, sweetheart, sleep early. Oh, by the way, I bought a new massage chair. Someone will deliver and install it this weekend. Let Ms. Silverleaf know."
