Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism



"Alright."

They spent time in Haland until the middle of the month and booked their flight to return home.

Hazel's quest for love had officially come to an end.

That night, Archer made things clear to her he truly had no feelings for her.

With that, Hazel finally let go of her obsession. Later, she told Violeta that she wouldn't be returning home with them. Instead, she planned to go to Cascadia to visit her sister.

Violeta patted her on the shoulder. "There are plenty of good men out there."

Hazel smiled. "Exactly. It's not like no one is into me. No point in being hung up on him."

Violeta nodded. "I'm glad you've come to terms with it."

Hazel grinned. "I had such a great time hanging out with you guys. Oh, and in April, I'll be going to Kay's wedding. I'll be waiting for yours! When's the big day? Make sure to tell me the date."

Violeta glanced at Hayden, who stood a short distance away, and laughed, "Nothing's decided yet. I'm in no hurry. We'll talk about it later." After Violeta updated her Twitter profile picture, it didn't take long for Hayden to follow suit.

He changed his picture to a selfie of Violeta, sparking a wave of fan chatter.

"Ah, I knew it! They definitely went on that trip together!"

"Kaylee posted a bunch of photos on Twitter, and Apex's CEO was there too. Looks like they're all part of the same circle. Rumor has it there's a vlog shoot. I wonder when Violeta will share it so we can feast our eyes on it."

"I'm jealous! I wish I could travel with Violeta too."

The footage from their trip was edited into a video and uploaded to Violeta's Twitter once she got back to work. It quickly became a hot topic, gaining a lot of attention.

Violeta was likely the first celebrity to share a travel vlog.

The main cast of The Golden Ages skyrocketed in popularity.

Kaylee and Chad both rose to stardom, with Chad even surpassing Nolan in peak popularity during the film's popularity.

However, after the initial buzz cooled down, things settled, and the frenzy wasn't quite as intense anymore.

At this year's Hundred Blossom Award, it was uncertain whether Chad would manage to outshine Nolan's Whisper to the Mountain Spirit and claim the title of Best Actor.

Last year's lineup was also filled with outstanding films.

Many film critics online were making predictions, with the consensus being that the strongest contenders for Best Actor were Chad and Nolan.

In the Best Actress category, the competition is particularly intense between Violeta and Hattie.

This year, several major awards ceremonies were almost taking turns. Whether The Golden Ages could win all the major awards depended on its performance.

This could be the peak of Violeta's career.

What many thought was her peak right after her debut turned out to be just the beginning, as her true success came later.

It was also the peak of Kaylee's career.

She was appointed as the ambassador for Pet Haven, representing the brand at multiple offline events, which greatly increased her popularity. In March, Peninsula Tea premiered.

Though the show didn't achieve blockbuster ratings, its quality kept the viewership steady.

This was Kaylee's first lead role in a TV series invested by Zoren, resulting in a rise in her popularity.

For Kaylee, playing the lead role wasn't what mattered most; she knew she could shine in supporting roles as long as the character was well-written.

She also understood that she didn't naturally fit the mold for leading ladies.

Many years ago, when Mason cast her in The Lies in Winter, someone told Kaylee that he signed her. primarily for supporting roles

because she didn't have the look of a typical lead actress.

Hearing those words back then was undoubtedly disheartening for her.

Of course it did.

At the time, she was just a senior in college, fresh out into the industry with no connections.

However, after all these years, she has long since made peace with that comment.

Kaylee had continually relied on her outstanding acting talent to forge her path.

Once April arrived, a series of film awards began to roll in.

The first was the Splendor Awards, and when Violeta received her invitation, she felt a sense of finally getting what she had been waiting for.

The entire cast of The Golden Ages was invited to walk the red carpet.

Joining them were the star teams from several outstanding films released the previous year, including Whisper to the Mountain Spirit.

Hattie, the lead actress of Whisper to the Mountain Spirit, was naturally invited as well.

Although she should have felt
