Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 311 Fall from Grace

And Anton was the chairman of White Group!

Zelena's eyelids twitched as a disturbing thought began to form in her mind.

Could it be...

Could Violeta be Anton's daughter?

No, impossible.

Zelena quickly called Hattie, but unfortunately, Hattie hadn't answered her calls for days and didn't answer now

either.

Zelena clenched her fist.

Fine, Hattie might have made a dazzling debut, but did she really plan to ignore her?

She shouldn't forget that her debut role was snatched from Zelena!

Getting rid of her wouldn't be that easy!

Fuming, Zelena turned and headed downstairs.

She didn't notice Violeta and Kaylee standing by the railing on the third floor across the way.

"Vio, do you think Zelena will be removed from her position as president?"

"Almost certainly."

"Serves her right. | never thought she'd actually dare to substitute inferior goods to make a profit. | initially

believed she wouldn't do something like this."

Wouldn't?

Violeta knew all too well that in her previous life, Zelena had committed far worse deeds, and with much more

ruthlessness.

"But..." Kaylee said with a smile, looking at Violeta, "Vio, it looks like you can't hide your identity as the daughter

of a board member this time."

Violeta blinked gently, her hands in her pockets, her expression unchanged.

"Let's go."

In truth, she had never deliberately hidden it.

From Violeta's custom Jour 24 clothing to living in the Liberty Grove apartments and owning a café, anyone with

a bit of intelligence could see that Violeta was definitely not poor.

Yet, those who refused to believe it wouldn't change their minds, even if presented with evidence.

Word of Zelena's embezzlement spread quickly through the student council.

Soon, everyone was privately discussing Zelena, and her reputation plummeted, making her the target of

widespread condemnation.

Two days later, Bright Way Factory delivered all the equipment the school had ordered, complete with the logo of

a top sports brand.

The school kept its promise, hanging banners around the sports event field to promote the co-branded

sponsorship.

Before the sports event began, there were rumors on the forum suggesting that the school was putting so much

effort into it because, in addition to the education bureau, a significant political figure was attending.

This person was said to be Glen, who was Hayden's father.

Since the rumor seemed credible, Violeta couldn't help but be curious if Glen would really show up.

On the day of the sports event, Violeta and Kaylee went to the field to witness the opening ceremony together.

However, things didn't go as they hoped.

For sreason, although the leaders did cto the school, they didn't stay to watch the event.

They made a discreet tour of the school and left shortly after.

Unfortunately, Violeta didn't get to see Glen.

During the sports event, there were too many things happening, and the school didn't have tto deal with

Zelena. Feeling fragile, Zelena didn't cto school for three days.

It wasn't until the school notified her to return and face punishment that she cback.

The first consequence was the removal of her position as student council president.

Zelena becthe first student council president to be dismissed at Toland University.

The second punishment was a probation period due to her lack of a positive attitude in correcting her mistakes.

Probation was just one step short of expulsion.

This meant that if Zelena's behavior didn't improve during this period, she would be expelled.

Zelena was very dissatisfied with this punishment.

In the office, she cried and claimed she was innocent.

She insisted that Violeta was framing her.

The advisor awkwardly glanced at the school committee member and Janice.

"Zelena, calm down. Violeta didn't do anything wrong. Do you have any evidence to prove she framed you?"

Janice added, "Exactly. What did Violeta do? If it weren't for her, this sports event could have been a disaster!"

Zelena hadn't cto school for the past few days because she was conducting her own investigation. At first,

she thought Violeta had deliberately set her up.

Her plan had seemed flawless, so how could it have gone wrong?

However, after her investigation, Zelena couldn't find any evidence against Violeta.

But she couldn't believe that Violeta had done nothing.

She had been responsible for liaising with the factory, so why had Violeta suddenly gotten involved?

And then brought in the White Group factory?

Zelena angrily insisted, "This was my

responsibility, and Violeta

deliberately interfered to setup. Why else would she bring in the White Group factory? She must have some

benefit from this.

"And about the factory sending second-grade products, | have no idea why that happened. It must have been a

mistake by the factory, a mix-up with the invoices. The near accident with the leaders was something | never

wanted to happen. Everyone knows it was an accident.

"I didn't profit from this at all. I'm not that
