Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 60

Violeta relaxed by putting on earmuffs and an eye mask.

At some point, Zelena approached with milk and bread.

"Sis, have you had breakfast? Have some bread and milk!" she said.

Kaylee glanced at Zelena and replied, "No need."

However, Zelena ignored her response and threw the bread and milk towards Violeta, saying, "Sis!"

Violeta, who was not asleep, raised her hand to block the milk and bread, causing them to fall to the ground.

She removed her eye mask and looked at Zelena coldly.

"Sis, if you don't want to eat, why did you throw the bread and milk on the ground? It's such a waste of food!" she said.

Zelena squatted down to pick up the milk and bread, patting off the invisible dust with a pained expression.

This scene was witnessed by several members of the cheerleaders.

The cheerleaders and the tennis club were already at odds, both competing for the top spot as Toland University's most popular clubs. Seeing Violeta's arrogant expression, they naturally took advantage of the situation.

"The tennis club is really something. What a noble princess! Can't even be satisfied with milk and bread?"

"This is too much. If you don't want to eat, why throw it on the ground?"

"Lena woke up early today to buy milk and bread for us. Actually, she didn't have a share from the tennis club. But now she gave them a share and they didn't even appreciate it!"

...

Zelena heard their words and a smirk of successful scheming appeared in her eyes.

She walked over and said, "Everyone, stop talking and don't misunderstand. Maybe just now the car bumped a little and Sis couldn't catch the milk and bread. It accidentally fell on the ground. Let's not talk about it anymore. Don't ruin the harmony."

"Bumped? There was no bump just now. It was perfectly fine!"

Zelena's excuse was truly ridiculous.

The members of the dance club didn't accept it. They just wanted to start a fight!

"You people from the tennis club are ungrateful for the benefits you receive. Now you're bullying us in front of our dance club. Do you think we're idiots?"

"Lena, stop being the peacemaker. The tennis club has been arrogant more than twice. It's disgusting! We might as well feed the bread and milk to the dogs!"

"If it wasn't for Lena bringing us to rehearse and working hard to mediate, I wouldn't want to be their cheerleader!"

The argument was about to escalate.

The members of the tennis club couldn't tolerate being insulted by their arch-rivals from the dance club.

One member of the tennis club stood up and said, "Can you guys stop already? Isn't it just bread and milk falling on the ground? I thought it was a big deal, but you keep arguing. Do you think we have to rely on your dance club to be our cheerleaders? Don't think so highly of yourselves!"

Some people echoed, "Yeah! This time we're playing in the league to bring glory to the school, not for ourselves. You guys should remember that you're not here to be our cheerleaders, you're representing the school."

"It's ridiculous, as if we need you guys!"

Zelena had initially wanted to blame Violeta for this, but she didn't expect the dance club to get into an argument with the tennis club.

If the two clubs fall apart before the league, it won't be good.

She felt embarrassed and quickly said, "Everyone, stop arguing! We're about to arrive. Let's not ruin the atmosphere."

At this moment, Zelena realized the seriousness of the situation and began to mediate.
