Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism
Chapter 360 Official Announcement

"Wait a minute! Were we mocking the official spokesperson of the brand?" someone exclaimed, eyes wide with disbelief. "And the person stirring the pot was dancing on the face of a top luxury brand!" another added, frustration evident in their tone.

"Seriously?"

"Is this for real?" one more voice chimed in, dripping with scepticism.

Countless calls flooded SEVITL, but they refused to leak even a whisper.

It wasn't until 8 AM that SEVITL's official account finally made the announcement. Violeta was named as their new spokesperson for the Artea-Pacifica region, and they posted stunning high-definition photos of Violeta from last night's Clio Charity Night. The announcement seemed hastily prepared.

Since Violeta hadn't even had the time to shoot any official posters; they had to use the photos from yesterday night's charity event.

What did this imply?

It meant that SEVITL couldn't stand to see Violeta being ridiculed and decided to step in personally to defend their spokesperson.

Fans rushed to the comment section, celebrating and congratulating Violeta.

As soon as the official announcement was published, it went viral, shaking the entire industry.

This news was the biggest bombshell to hit the entertainment world this year!

Violeta, a rookie who had only been in the industry for six months, had signed a contract with a top luxury brand!

Each word of this news was beyond incredible.

When Lydia heard the news, she was in her celebrity van, heading to the studio for a styling session.

Her team had been in talks with SEVITL too.

Lydia had made her intentions clear by sharing her vacation photos on social media, showcasing SEVITL outfits abroad, all of which she had bought with her money. It was a clear hint.

She had thought that once she returned from vacation, the endorsement would soon follow.

However, Violeta unexpectedly got the deal instead of her!

This is unacceptable!

Lydia was seething with anger. "Have you found out who bought the dress yet?" she demanded.

Looking nervous, Devin replied, "Not yet. I heard it's from a private source. The information is sealed tight."

In a fit of frustration, Lydia smashed her hand down, causing her iPad to shatter into a web of cracks.

Devin was shocked and mentally rehearsed various comforting lines, trying to calm Lydia down. "Lydia, do you think maybe Eugene helped her out?"

"I mean, Eugene is pretty close with SEVITL's director. They often have meals together, and before ..." Lydia interrupted before Devin could finish speaking.

"No way. We're talking about an Artea-Pacifica spokesperson here not just a brand friend. Even if Eugene is powerful, he can't turn a nobody into somebody."

Her implication was clear: if Violeta didn't have what it took, not even Eugene could make her succeed.

Just like Lydia herself.

Her accomplishments were not merely because of Eugene's efforts but also because of her talent and hard work.

Devin ventured another guess, "So, Violeta must have a strong backing then?"

Lydia scoffed. "This Violeta, she didn't enter the industry through the usual channels, no way. Where did she graduate from? Investigate her university!" Lydia was indeed shrewd. She knew that directly investigating Violeta's background might be fruitless, so she decided to start with her university. Violeta was quite renowned at Toland University.

At 08:00 AM, Violeta was picked up by Felix to head to the studio for the official photoshoot.

The photographer who was in charge of this photoshoot was Aileen.

Once Violeta came in, she ran into Aileen, who was holding a thermos cup.

"Yo, Eugene!" Aileen greeted with a bright smile, revealing her perfect teeth.

She and Eugene were friends.

"Good morning, Aileen!" Eugene replied.

"Violeta, we meet again so soon," Aileen said warmly.

She had photographed Violeta for a magazine cover recently, and the results had been spectacular. The magazine had sold out online,

showcasing Violeta's impressive

appeal to the fashion industry.

QUMS

It was probably because of that successful shot that SEVITL was willing to take a chance on Violeta, also doing a favour for Irene in the process. It was beneficial to all parties involved.

"Time's tight, and there's a lot to do. Get to makeup quickly," Aileen urged.

"Got it." Violeta nodded.

Today was a big day, not only for the SEVITL photoshoot but also for filming the endorsement commercial.

Every spokesperson had an exclusive commercial.

Aileen had even come up with a special theme for Violeta's shoot, and there would be an outdoor scene later.

After being officially announced as SEVITL's spokesperson, Violeta was now the talk of the town; her fame skyrocketing within the industry.
