Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism
Chapter 64 Jealousy

The members of the tennis club believed Violeta had been bullied and rushed over anxiously.

Nolan had a hint of subtle concern in his expression as he asked, "Are you okay?"

Kaylee said, "Why did they show up here? I heard those from the sports school can be ruthless. Were they trying to attack you while we were away?"

Seeing their anxiety, Violeta calmly smiled and said, "I'm fine. You guys are too worried."

"They weren't as terrifying as you guys described. The Nelsons have good personalities."

It turned out to be a false alarm. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It was quite surprising for Violeta to praise the personalities of the Nelsons.

The sisters have quite a reputation in the sports school!

...

Inside the changing room.

Zelena returned to the changing room in a rage. She found the clothes and shoes she had prepared for Violeta and Kaylee in the wardrobe.

And they hadn't been worn.

Zelena was shocked that this girl was so cautious against her.

Ever since Zelena returned to the Blakes, she had tried many ways to cause trouble for Violeta. She thought Violeta would fall for it, but she cunningly evaded her scheme time and time again.

It seemed like Violeta knew every step of her plan.

Something doesn't feel right.

Zelena couldn't figure out what had gone wrong with her plan.

Or perhaps she was truly inferior to Violeta?

Zelena clenched her teeth and angrily tossed her clothes on the ground.

"No! Violeta just got lucky! She stole my life! I must take it back!"

In Zelena's previous life, she watched Violeta thrive while her own biological parents took pride in this adopted daughter and neglected their own.

Although she no longer suffered hardships, what she truly desired was a life as glamorous as Violeta's!

Why was Violeta able to succeed when she could only be a supporting character?

Jealousy! She was filled with overwhelming jealousy.

Zelena died with resentment in her previous life, but she didn't expect fate to give her a second chance.

In this life, she will definitely seize everything from Violeta before her success.

No, it doesn't count as seizing, but she reclaimed what was rightfully hers.

With this mindset, Zelena was determined to fight Violeta to the death.

Little did Zelena know that her reincarnation had caused Violeta to suffer greatly in her previous life.

In this space and time, their reincarnations encountered each other again.

Zelena walked out of the changing room and unexpectedly overheard the conversation of cheerleaders from the adjacent room in the hallway.

"Did any of you notice? Archer was constantly watching that girl named Violeta during the match."

"Of course we noticed. The women's doubles match at Toland University was really impressive. It felt like they were on par with the Nelson sisters!"

"What are you talking about? The Nelsons are the best. Just wait and see, they will definitely crush Violeta this afternoon!"

"Hahaha, that's true. After all, Hazel likes Archer, and Archer has been looking at that girl for such a long time. I bet Hazel couldn't stand it."

"Should we teach that girl a lesson on behalf of Hazel? What do you guys think?"

The conversation went on.

Zelena stood at the door. She peered through the crack in the door and observed the cheerleading team inside.

She had overheard their conversation.

Zelena gradually broke into a smile. Violeta! Oh Violeta! It seems like I'm not the only one who despises you!

This is amazing! Since these girls can't stand you, why don't I give them a little help?

A wicked plan took shape in her mind.

Zelena decisively ripped her T-shirt and let her hair down. She sat in the corridor, weeping.

Soon, her sobs caught the attention of the cheerleading team in the changing room.

"Did you girls hear that? Who's crying? Come on, let's check it out."

They walked out and spotted Zelena weeping devastatingly.

Someone recognized her and said, "Isn't this girl from Toland University's tennis club? Why are you crying here?"

Zelena pretended to panic. She quickly stood up from the ground and said, "It's nothing! Really!"

"Hey, don't go. Have you been bullied? Tell us about it."

A triumphant smile appeared in Zelena's eyes as she wiped away her tears and turned her head. She said, "Thank you, but you probably can't help me. I... Well, I'd rather not say." "Come on! Did someone from your club bully you?"

Under the persistent questioning of the cheerleading members, Zelena reluctantly spoke up.

"It was Violeta. I accidentally spilled milk and bread on her on the bus, and she started targeting me. It's all my fault, I'm the one who offended her."

Zelena exaggeratedly described the scene on the bus to the cheerleaders.

Upon hearing this, the cheerleaders were all furious.

"Violeta is such a mean girl! It's just a minor incident, but she treated you harshly. Don't worry! We can't stand her either. Since that's the case, we'll take care of her for you too."

"We'll settle the score with her at lunch!"

Zelena looked terrified and stopped them. "Oh, please! Girls! Don't do this!"

One of the cheerleaders comfortingly patted Zelena's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, are you afraid Violeta will retaliate against you? It's okay, we won't reveal your involvement." They had already considered confronting Violeta. After Zelena's instigation, they were determined to teach her a lesson.

"Hazel likes Archer. If we teach Violeta a lesson, maybe it will make Hazel happy!"

"Yeah, that's right!"

Zelena covered her face, not crying, but secretly laughing.

Go ahead! I can't wait!

...

The morning competition had concluded.

All members of Toland University successfully advanced to the afternoon finals.

The venue had a cafeteria where everyone could have lunch. Violeta went to have lunch with the tennis club members.

When they entered the cafeteria, those from sports schools followed them from behind.

"Archer, those are contestants from Toland University."

Archer glanced at them indifferently. He accurately spotted Violeta in the crowd. She was talking with Kaylee. Then he looked away.

Members of the cheerleading team were with Nydia and Hazel.

Hazel said to the girl next to her, "You can go back to school after lunch. We don't need you in the afternoon."

That girl said with a smile, "Okay! We still have something to take care of, we'll leave after we finish."

Hazel asked, "What is it?"

"Haha, you'll replace out when the time comes."

Hazel furrowed her brow slightly, but she was naturally carefree. Therefore, she didn't dwell on it and casually waved her hand, saying, "Whatever, let's get something to eat. I'm starving."
