Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 369 Wendy Stokes

"I don't have it, Ms. White."

The fans' faces showed their disappointment.

Right when Violeta was contemplating whether to use lip gloss, a somewhat plump hand extended from behind, offering a white fountain pen. "Here, take this."

Violeta turned to see it was her major fan, The Violet Land.

After taking the pen and signing her name, the other fans started handing her various items to autograph. Once Violeta finished, she spotted the chubby guy and walked over to return the pen.

"Thanks! May I know your name?"

"Armand Shephard."

The chubby guy was wearing a pale yellow hoodie.

Though he was a big fan, he was pretty shy. Unlike the others who would rush over to block Violeta, he always just watched quietly and left without a word.

Violeta said, "I'll remember that. Head back early and get some rest. Thanks for sticking around with me."

Armand felt thrilled talking to Violeta.

Once she was out of sight, he grabbed his high-end camera and left too, excitedly editing pictures to upload on Facebook when he got to his hotel. He planned to go to bed early to catch his morning flight to Glorialand and wait at the airport.

The thought of it made him giggle with joy.

After wrapping up the shoot in Newham, Violeta hopped on a pre-dawn flight to Glorialand to make the most of the good weather.

Just before getting on the plane, Violeta responded to Danielle's message on WhatsApp.

'Hey, Danielle, I found the perfect director for the shoot. If she agrees, I'll introduce you to her when I return from Glorialand.'

Danielle replied, 'Sounds good.'

Meanwhile, Lydia's vacation has ended, and she's ready to start working officially.

It's been quite a while since she joined a film crew, and her fans on Facebook are eagerly waiting.

Although Lydia wants to act, she's tired of those typical youthful idol dramas.

She's looking to make a change!Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

However, mainstream local directors

aren't interested in working with her, so she's turned her focus to

el.

international directors, hoping to

secure roles in global films.

Lydia is now focused on the rising international Artean director, Wendy Stokes.

Wendy, who is of Chesian-Glorian

heritage, moved to Poresaint when

I

she was six and went back to Glorialand at eighteen to attend college While in university, she won a Golden Sun Award for a short film she directed.

After graduating, she kept making films and made a big comeback last year with a unique project, earning the Golden Horizon Award for best director. Wendy has a reputation among global filmmakers for preferring Artean actors in her films.

Being of Chesian-Glorian heritage

and having faced "racial prejudice" during her education in the

Poresaint, she resolved to elevate Arteanrepresentation to global

prominence in her a career.

Additionally, Wendy has frequently voiced her stance against racial and skin colour discrimination on her social media accounts.

This is what attracts Lydia to her.

"Wendy is working on a new movie, and it's supposed to focus on women in the workplace. I need to land a part in this film to make a breakthrough." "Lydia, we've been reaching out to her for ages, and Wendy's studio still hasn't responded. Isn't it a bit discouraging?" her assistant said. Lydia smirked, "It's expected they wouldn't answer. Do you have any idea how many junk emails the studio's public inbox gets daily?" The assistant was speechless

They likely assumed the emails were just more spam.

Lydia grabbed her phone with a smug look on her face and said joyfully, "In this industry, you need connections to succeed.

"I got a friend to reach out to Wendy for me. She has already looked over my resume and suggested I audition in Glorialand next week."

The assistant's eyes lit up with excitement.

"For real? Wow, that's fantastic!!"

Lydia was thrilled too, though she couldn't help but think that while she now had her studio, the skill level of her current employees wasn't on par with Eugene.

If they were, she wouldn't have had to contact Wendy herself.

But you can't have everything.

Lydia understood that with every gain comes some loss, so she couldn't demand perfection.

"By the way, have we checked into Violeta's background?"

The assistant nodded. "Yes, it's all done."
