Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Everyone still couldn't comprehend the situation.

Violeta and Eugene left together.

Eugene took Violeta to the artist lounge upstairs and introduced himself.

"Beauty, I'm Eugene. You've signed a five-year contract with Apex, right? I'm your agent from now on."

Violeta nodded.

She knew Eugene. In her previous life, she had heard of the two Apex's famous superagents.

Back then, whenever she saw Eugene behind the scenes, she had to address him as Mr. Scott.

She never imagined that Eugene would become her agent.

First, they exchanged contact information and added each other on Facebook.

Eugene, aware of Violeta's background, knew her debut project was 'The Quiet Ode'.

"Don't worry. The company will handle the promotions for 'The Quiet Ode."""

"Oh, by the way."

Eugene looked at Violeta seriously and asked, "Are you dating anyone?"

Violeta replied, "No."

Eugene continued, "Any romantic entanglements?"

Violeta shook her head, "No."

Eugene nodded. He was satisfied.

"It wouldn't be a problem even if you did. Since I'll be managing you, we need to be completely open with each other. Romantic entanglements aren't scary; the real problem is unresolved ones. "You can trust me completely. If there's anything, it's best to resolve it before the promotions for 'The Quiet Ode' start.

"If any issues arise and affect the promotion, it would be problematic."

Violeta assured him, "I understand. I've never been in a relationship."

Eugene raised his eyebrows slightly.

Hearing that a beautiful girl like Violeta had never been in a relationship surprised him.

It seems that she was very smart and had her mind.

"I'll handle the controversy on Facebook. You don't have to worry about it. Do you have time this evening?"

"Yes, I do."

"Perfect. Let's have dinner tonight. I'll introduce you to two assistants."

Violeta nodded.

Eugene smiled happily.

"Beauty, I'm very good at judging people. Get ready to become a sensation!"

If everything goes smoothly, that would be fantastic.

Violeta trusted Eugene to take care of her debut preparations and marketing strategies.

At 3 PM, Violeta left the company and went to a café. A shop across the street had a rental notice.

Fiona had finished drying the clothes.

Violeta changed and prepared to send Kaylee's clothes for dry cleaning.

Kaylee said, "I only wore it for a short while. It doesn't need cleaning."

Violeta replied, "Alright, thank you, Kay."

Kaylee responded, "No problem, Vio. How did everything go today? Did you meet any artists at the company?"

Violeta answered, "Not really. But there were a few others from Starbright Film Academy signing as well."

Kaylee asked excitedly, "Oh, who?"

"There were two guys, Brandon and Chad, and a girl named Tracy."

Hearing these names, Kaylee's eyes lit up. "I know them!"

"You do?"

"Yeah, last year during the holiday, Brandon had a band performance at the plaza on East Street. There were a lot of people there, and I went to check it out."

Kaylee referred to the semester when Violeta was filming 'The Quiet Ode'.

Violeta had heard of Brandon, but that was in her past life.

Brandon was a popular male singer with both talent and skill.

There was a barrier between singers and actors.

Violeta didn't know much about him, but she remembered he was quite popular among the youth.

Kaylee continued, "Tracy and Chad

are quite popular too. I've seen their short dramas online. People shipped them a lot. They were called the Orange Couple if I remember correctly."

"Wow, Vio, it looks like the artists signing with your company this time are really talented."

Apex Entertainment, being one of the top three companies in the country, wouldn't just sign anyone.

Top companies had a lot of artists.

But they lack artists who can make it big and bring in money.

Besides scouting people, many graduates from prestigious performing arts academies prioritize applying to big companies. Everyone wanted to make it big.

But it wasn't that easy.

Some play minor roles for ten years and change their fate with one supporting role.

Some spent half their career in the industry and were still nobodies.

Violeta could speak from experience about this.

After expressing her envy, Kaylee

= her chin up and said, "But

on

other hand, I still don't

e chosen." Content below if

Violeta smiled gently, "There are plenty of good scripts. Just be patient."

Kaylee agreed, "That's all I can hope for."

The best thing about Kaylee was her easygoing nature. She wasn't obsessed with always landing a role.
