Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

During the ceremony, a brief camera shot caught Lydia's expression turning stiff and displeased when Violeta was announced as the winner. Her subsequent applause seemed forced and insincere. Online rumours suggested a rivalry between Lydia and Violeta's teams, though this was never confirmed.

However, this video revealed that Lydia's loss of the Best Supporting Actress Award was undoubtedly a blow to her.

Being surpassed by a newcomer was something Lydia found hard to accept.

Lydia's fans cried foul on the internet, claiming the awards were rigged, but their accusations gained little traction.

"The Quiet Ode's" popularity and critical acclaim were undeniable.

The show sparked widespread discussion and revolutionised the web drama genre, establishing itself as a groundbreaking production.

While some questioned Violeta's lack of experience, no one disputed the show's deserving recognition.

However, Lydia's fans attributed Violeta's win solely to screenwriter Wade Howell.

Whenever Wade won the Best Screenwriter award, he always brought his lead actors to success with him.

This time, Violeta was merely benefiting from Wade's glory!

This notion stirred up debates on certain forums, where many so-called "industry insiders" claimed that Wade was considered a lucky charm in the industry. As long as it was his drama, it would not only guarantee viewership but also elevate the lead actors' status. Even a piece of trash could win the Best Supporting Actress award under Wade's guidance.

This sentiment became a rallying cry for Violeta's online critics, who firmly believed her Best Supporting Actress win was solely due to Wade's influence.

It was unclear whether Violeta was aware of this mockery, but her choice of a newcomer screenwriter for her latest drama, "Nirvana and Rebirth," seemed like a deliberate response. Could this be Violeta's silent rebuttal to some of the online doubts?

This decision ignited further online discussions, with rumours circulating that Violeta privately criticised Wade's scripts as overly rigid and had voiced her complaints to her assistant. The veracity of these claims remained uncertain, but they certainly created a buzz.

A few days later, Violeta returned from a promotional shoot in Pherances, greeted by a throng of fans and media at the airport.

They had eagerly awaited her arrival, and a frenzy erupted as she emerged.

"Violeta, over here!"

"Care to comment on the online rumours?"

"Do you really dislike screenwriter Wade?"

"Was your Best Supporting Actress win rigged?"

"Your drama is airing alongside Lydia's. Are you confident in beating her ratings?"

"Is it true that the international version of 'Rebirth' has a different plot?"

The voices around Violeta were chaotic. At that moment, it seemed like countless people were asking her questions, and she couldn't tell

who was calling her namontent

Her bodyguards formed a protective circle around her, urging her to move quickly through the chaos.

Amidst the flurry of voices, Violeta honed in on the reporter who had mentioned Wade.

Fixing her gaze on them, she responded, "hold screenwriter Wade in high regard. Please refrain from spreading baseless rumors. will not tolerate those who attempt to tarnish reputations online

Violeta was baffled by the origins of such rumours, especially after she had publicly expressed her gratitude to Wade during the awards ceremony.

It was clear that someone was intentionally trying to sow discord between them.

After getting into the car, Aster closed the door.

The car sped away from everyone's sight.

Violeta then instructed Aster, "Contact Eugene and identify those responsible for spreading these rumours. I'm taking legal action." "Understood," Aster confirmed.

The following day, those who had propagated the rumours received warning letters from Violeta's team, with the most egregious offenders facing legal notices.

Later that month, Violeta attended a promotional event for her drama.

The highly anticipated "As Soon As We Meet" premiered early the following month, followed closely by "Rebirth and Survival" just two days later.
