Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism



Of the four, Chad's career was developing the slowest.

His first work was a collaboration with Lydia, in which he played the second male lead.

After a period of hiatus, he filmed a low-budget movie, but it failed to make an impact.

His third project was 'The Island'.

Initially, it was supposed to be a collaboration with Tracy, but after the swap, it became a collaboration with Violeta.

The producer established a group chat after confirming the lead roles.

Violeta joined the group and exchanged contacts with Chad.

Violeta, despite debuting together and being from the same company, had very little interaction with Chad.

For their roles, Violeta had to cut her hair short, and Chad had to shave his head.

On the photo shoot day, Violeta and Chad met.

Chad wore a black T-shirt and was already sporting a buzz cut. He looked cool.

Chad's image was one of the few tough guy types in the domestic entertainment industry.

However, the company never found a suitable path for him.

In the realm of handsome men, no one could compete with Nolan.

For the youthful heartthrob niche, Jacques was leading the pack.

There were two major powerhouses, both in modern and period settings.

While Chad was also good-looking, he lacked the heroic vigor of Nolan and the refined beauty of Jacques.

He found himself in a difficult situation.

Violeta sensed that Chad might finally find his path through this movie, possibly as a macho guy or action star.

This type of actor was still very much needed in the industry.

Violeta also encountered Polly.

Polly, despite being older than Violeta, perfectly embodied the period character in her flapper dress. She looked like she walked straight out of the script.

She was not only quiet but also kept to herself.

Sharing a dressing room, Violeta noticed Polly's phone occasionally ringing with calls from a veterinarian.

It seemed that Polly's pets were having issues.

She was bustling around, constantly communicating with her housekeeper and the vet.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

that a fight between Polly's two cats had left one with a scratch on face and the other with a broken leg from falling off a shelf.

In spring, cat fights were common.

For animals, it was a season of awakening and mating.

If Polly were home, she could handle it herself.

Since she was on set, she had to repeatedly instruct her housekeeper to manage the situation properly.

Finally, Polly reminded her, "Beatrice, don't forget to have the vet neuter them. Yes, exactly."

Once the call ended, Violeta struck up a conversation. "Are you getting your cats neutered?"

Polly put her phone away and turned nodding. "Yes, my twone

Violeta asked, "What happens if they aren't neutered?"

Tuna had lost all of its wild nature and turned into a cuddly wolf.

It hadn't been neutered.

Since Violeta wasn't home often, she didn't know what would happen when Tuna was in heat. Hearing Polly talk about neutering her pets, she asked out of curiosity.

Polly explained, "If they aren't neutered, they might get sick, lose their appetite, and become more

aggressive and prone to fiet

"By the way, Violeta, do you also have pets?"

The topic piqued Polly's interest.

Violeta smiled. Since Polly had opened up, she said, "Yes, but my pets are a bit unusual."

Polly's eyes widened with curiosity. "Unusual? Like what? Snakes? Reptiles?"
