Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 304 Anonymous Tip

The drama finally ended.

The biggest winner was Grace.

Not only had her student triumphed with a gold and silver medal, but she had also witnessed the spectacular downfall of her rival, whose life was now in shambles due to infidelity and a shattered family.

It was a moment of pure elation for Grace, a feeling she thought couldn't be surpassed.

But fate had another surprise in store.

A call from a police acquaintance brought news of a significant breakthrough in the car accident case, suggesting it was likely a murder-for-hire plot! As Grace listened intently, Violeta sat quietly in the back seat.

The contact from the police said that someone had anonymously provided clues, significantly shortening their investigation time.

If all the clues were verified to be correct, the nature of the case would change, and the true culprit behind the scenes would be brought to justice. "Someone anonymously reported? Have you found out who?" Grace asked.

"Who was it, Vivian's phone? Could she be that stupid ...

Violeta sat in the back seat, casually playing with her phone.

After Grace finished the call, she glanced at Violeta in the rearview mirror, still playing with her phone.

The acquaintance's words echoed in Grace's mind.

The anonymous report was made during the chaotic scene at the hotel.

There were only a few people in the room at the time, and the anonymous report was sent from Vivian's own phone. By process of elimination, only Violeta remained.

Surely, Grace wouldn't tell anyone about this.

Besides, speculation couldn't be used as evidence.

But she was aware that her student was not simple.

Had she really taken on an extraordinary apprentice?

The acquaintance had said that without that report, they would have eventually found out, but it would have taken a long time, especially with the need to investigate bank accounts overseas.

The other party might not cooperate, and the back-and-forth would take a very long time.

They had met a noble person who secretly helped them.

Violeta knew Grace was looking at her, raised her eyes to meet her gaze, and smiled innocently.

"Ms. Parker, aren't we leaving?"

"Sure, let's go."

Grace smiled and looked at Irene, "Ms. Irene, what would you like to eat later? The fish in Icroln is very good, I know a place that tastes great ... " Irene replied, "Anything is fine, you decide."

After receiving the anonymous report, the police quickly launched an investigation.

As Violeta expected, they successfully traced Vivian's remittance account to the daughter of the driver involved in the accident.

With all the evidence laid out, the driver's wife, not wanting to implicate her unknowing daughter abroad, confessed everything. It turned out that the driver was indeed bribed.

Knowing his time was counting down, someone contacted him privately to do a job in exchange for a generous sum of money. This money was enough for his daughter to finish her music studies abroad.

The driver discussed it with his wife and eventually agreed.

Therefore, when the wife learned of the driver's death, she wasn't too surprised and refused an autopsy.

She was more concerned about whether the money had reached her daughter's account.

And all these evidences pointed to Vivian.

Having been cheated on, Declan didn't want to be involved with her anymore and directly filed for divorce.

Vivian's life was completely ruined.

Declan regretted his actions.

If he had known this would happen, he would never have been seduced by Vivian and should have stayed with Grace.

...

News of Vivian's investigation quickly made its way back home.

Upon returning, Grace filled the Nelsons in on everything that transpired in Icroln

Both Mr. and Mrs. Nelson expressed their deep gratitude to Grace.

However, Grace was quick to clarify, "I didn't play a major role in this. If you truly want to thank someone, it should be Violeta. Without her clever use of GPS tracking, we wouldn't have found the hotel, and the truth would have remained hidden."

First, there was the substitution in the competition, then the hidden GPS, and finally the anonymous report.

It was clear that Violeta had been instrumental throughout the entire ordeal.

Though some details remained

unclear to Grace, like how exactly

Violeta orchestrated everything or the specifics of the anonymous tip, she had unwavering faith in ber student.

She was certain Violeta was the mastermind behind it all, choosing to remain in the shadows and not claim any credit.

The Nelsons, moved by Grace's words, felt a deep sense of gratitude.

"We owe Violeta an immense debt. If there's ever anything we can do to help her, we won't hesitate."

...

The classes resumed a week later.

Hattie had signed with an entertainment agency and was no longer attending classes in her junior year.

Her grades weren't good anyway, so she was happy not to come to class.

Facebook was constantly promoting "Moonlit Promise," with the female lead Hattie and the male lead Jacques.

The drama itself was adapted from a romance novel, so it naturally had a lot of book fans generating buzz on Facebook. Jacques, the male lead, was already a heartthrob from the neighboring film academy, bringing his own fan base with him.
