Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 659

In most instances of being blacklisted in the industry, the repercussions weren't typically as sweeping or absolute.

This kind of ban would effectively drive Zelena into obscurity, cutting off her chances to perform.

Yet, it also signified that she was being cornered, creating a sense of urgency in her situation.

Violeta pulled out her phone and messaged Hayden, inquiring if he was the one orchestrating this.

At the same time, Zelena's team was in chaos, moving around like ants on a hot skillet.

"What on earth is happening? Does anyone have any information?"

This was the most significant crisis since Clifford took on the role of Zelena's manager.

No one could have anticipated that Zelena would suddenly find herself blacklisted.

Clifford remarked, "Lena, the average person won't be aware of the truth. We need to consult someone with influence in the industry."

Essentially, reaching out to Wayne, the vice president of the Actors' Association, would be a smart move.

If Zelena could connect with him, he might have some insight into the unfolding situation. Even if he lacked specific details, he could serve as a conduit to relay messages to the right people.

If Zelena had unintentionally offended someone, she would do whatever it took to make things right.

Zelena nodded, agreeing with Clifford's perspective. She wanted to ask Wayne for assistance or perhaps see if he could organize a dinner meeting to discuss the issues at hand.

"I've already reached out to him. He mentioned he could help and invited me to dinner at 8:00 PM tonight."

"Really? That's wonderful! If someone is willing to help, it will simplify things immensely.

"But Lena, are you completely certain you don't know who you might have upset? This is not a trivial matter."

Zelena felt a wave of confusion. "I honestly don't know … "

Recently, she hadn't crossed paths with anyone in a negative way.

She was confident in her ability to identify those she could offend and those she couldn't—she had been in the industry for so long, after all!

The only thing she could think about was that earlier incident with Ophelia …

But that was almost six months ago.

Initially, Zelena had feared that Ophelia might seek revenge, prompting her to devise an escape plan.
