Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism
Chapter 214 Empowering Violeta

Walking over, he saw his parents watching the live stream. They scrolled quickly through the comment section and spotted a comment or two criticising Violeta.

Niall exhaled in frustration, "What's the point in worrying about a few trolls? Just report them."

Irene replied, "It's pointless. We already reported them, but they said it doesn't count as insults."

After a moment of thought, Niall proposed a straightforward solution. "Well, in that case, let's just purchase the company. That way, we can ban whoever we choose, correct?"

Irene slapped her thigh. "Exactly! We were so worked up just now. Didn't expect this twist! Honey."

Anton immediately called his secretary to check on White Bear TV. The acquisition might take time to happen, but investing as shareholders? That could work! Once Violeta returned, everything was already settled. White Group had acquired White Bear TV, becoming its largest shareholder.

Those troll IDs? Each one got banned!

"I'm back, Mom, Dad! Liam's here, too. I won the match!"

Irene put down her phone and ran to Violeta, beaming joyfully, "Vio, you're back! Tonight, your dad and I watched the live stream! You're amazing, our precious!"

"Yeah, Vio, I watched your match too! So cool!"

Though Violeta saw it as routine, being surrounded by family praise made her feel bashful.

"I've just made it to the finals but haven't won yet. Please don't praise me too much."

Irene said, "Of course you can win! Who's as capable as my daughter?"

"Thanks, Mom."

Irene hugged Violeta's shoulder and said, "Oh, by the way, don't take those insults seriously and don't let them affect you. You're the best." Insults directed at her?

Violeta had experienced so much in her previous life that she wasn't bothered at all by these online trolls.

She couldn't care less.

But she hadn't expected her family to be so concerned.

Violeta smiled reassuringly and said, "Mom, I won't let them get to me, so don't worry."

Anton joined in. "It's reassuring to hear that. But remember, it's fine if it somehow gets to you. Dad's taken a step ahead by investing in White Bear TV. We can shut down any negativity by banning those who spread it!"

Violeta, taken aback, inquired, "Invested, you say?"

Niall contributed, "Absolutely, I witnessed it myself when I returned. There were Mom and Dad on the couch, handling trolls head-on. That's when the decision to invest was made a move to permanently close the doors on all their accounts, once and for all."

Goodness.

That's quite a bold move.

Violeta hesitated momentarily. "But investing like that-isn't it a bit impulsive? What if it doesn't make a profit?"

Irene patted Violeta's shoulder reassuringly, "Darling, you don't need to worry about that. Our family has money, and White Bear TV has good prospects for development. You should trust your dad. Leave the professional stuff to the professionals."

With White Group investing in White Bear TV, it would only get better, not worse.

Upon hearing this, Violeta nodded and smiled, "Okay."

Everyone chuckled, and then Anton remembered something. "Oh, Vio, what about your coffee shop? Would you like to start a franchise?"

"A franchise?"

This question had never crossed Violeta's mind before.

Initially, buying the coffee shop was a way to help out Mrs. Fiona and her husband. But as the business grew, it started to turn a profit and run smoothly.

Though these earnings were modest compared to the vast resources of the White Group, they were enough to give Violeta financial independence from her family.

Anton was asking Violeta if she wanted to build wealth for herself.

Niall added, "Vio, running a small business can be a good experience, and it won't take up much of your time."

"Yeah, Dad will help you," Anton chimed in.

After some thought, Violeta nodded decisively. "Sure, thanks, Dad!"

Anton grinned happily. "No need to thank me, as long as my precious daughter is happy."

Little did Violeta know that this decision would turn Sunset Cafe into a leading name in the coffee industry.

On the official website of MLSS, the list of finalists has been announced. The banners for the four teams were prominently displayed on the website.

Back at school for another week of classes, Violeta went about her usual routine of attending classes, eating, and training. Meanwhile, Zelena and Hattie were basking in the attention and admiration they received at school.

With so many schools participating in the Quinston College competition, it was a matter of great pride that Toland University had secured three spots.

Zelena and Hattie were invited to speak on stage at Tuesday's assembly. Amidst thunderous applause, there were a few puzzled remarks.

"Why isn't Violeta speaking? She's the real prodigy."

"I heard she's busy preparing for the championship and doesn't have time for these fancy speeches."

"Oh, that makes sense, then."

Violeta is more than just a skilled player in the game. She was also the top student in the performing arts department last semester. She's got it all: brains, beauty, and talent. She's an actual academic superstar.
