Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 8

Violeta's reputation had caused quite a commotion among her classmates within a few minutes.

Zelena had successfully led everyone to believe that Violeta was her wicked sister who had supposedly stolen eighteen years of Zelena's comfortable life. And to make matters worse, Violeta was ungrateful enough to speak to Zelena viciously. Everyone believed that Violeta was a vicious woman!

As Violeta followed the counselor, he addressed Violeta politely, "Ms. White, your mother is a renowned opera singer who graduated from our school. It's an honor for us that you chose to study in Toland University's performing arts department!"

"The honor is mine. Coming to Toland University to study has always been my dream, and it has nothing to do with my mom."

"If you need any assistance, feel free to come to me." After saying this, the counselor shook his head. "What am I saying? Your father is a member of our school's board of directors, so there's not much I can do to help."

"I'm here to study as an ordinary student. Sir, please don't give me special treatment. It would be strange."

The counselor was taken aback. Students from affluent families usually went out of their way to inform the school on their first day, but not Violeta.

The counselor had unintentionally checked Violeta's personal information and discovered that her mother was the famous opera singer Irene Persley. Her father was Anton White, a prominent figure in Quinston's business world.

With such a family background, Violeta could easily walk around the school with her head held high if she wanted to! However, Violeta unexpectedly wished to keep a low profile, unlike the Blake family's daughter from Arlowand, who arrived today and eagerly flaunted her family's wealth.

Upon hearing this, the counselor's impression of the two changed drastically. He suddenly developed a great liking for Violeta. "Alright, I won't disturb you any longer. I can have a student show you around the school if you need anything."

At that moment, several tall, lanky sophomore boys from the performing arts department approached them in the corridor. When the counselor saw them, he called out, "Nolan, come here."

Nolan! Upon hearing this name, Violeta froze. She slowly turned and saw the handsome young man walking towards them. It's him. It's really him.

Nolan Spencer was the person Violeta liked in her previous life, but he ended up with Zelena.

Nolan was the prestigious Spencer family's eldest son. He rose to fame instantly after debuting, winning numerous awards for his first film. He became a famous actor in the entertainment industry.

The following year, Zelena debuted and starred alongside him in her first drama, creating a huge fan base for their on-screen couple. Later on, fans discovered that their on-screen chemistry was genuine! Zelena had accidentally posted a photo of her and Nolan in bed on Facebook, exposing their relationship. Hence, Nolan bravely admitted their relationship and made it official.

She had secretly admired him for many years since their first encounter at the freshman orientation on campus, where she had fallen for him at first sight.

As she struggled in the entertainment industry later on, she always hoped to work with Nolan. She would have been satisfied even if it was just a minor role. In fact, she actually had the opportunity to work with him in her first drama after graduation. Unfortunately, Zelena had taken that role away from her...

Violeta had never confided in anyone about her feelings for Nolan, but Zelena seemed to know everything. She had schemed to get close to Nolan and quickly won him over, eventually becoming his girlfriend.

In her previous life, Violeta couldn't understand why. But now, she knew that Zelena was actually someone who had been reborn. That was why Zelena took the opportunity to get close to Nolan.

The memories of her previous life flashed through her mind fleetingly. Nolan was Violeta's first crush, and she used to regret her inaction regarding Nolan.
