Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 319 Expelled

It turned out, that not only did they fail to receive justice, but they were also served a harsh blow.

After Irene, Anton, and Violeta left the office, the head of the Education Committee announced that Zelena was expelled from school. Zelena's parents were furious, but they didn't know what to do.

As Zelena watched Irene and Anton leave, she suddenly realized that this was the same couple she had seen at the auction in Verdancia! The man and woman who bid on the expensive violet bracelet were actually the chairman of the White Group and his wife.

Zelena felt a wave of jealousy.

Josh and Sharon realized they had made a huge mistake coming to Quinston.

They had offended the Whites, which meant their company would lose major clients and their annual profits would drop significantly.

On top of that, Zelena had been expelled from school.

It's like everything went wrong-they didn't win anything and ended up losing a lot.

...

After they left the office, Violeta looked at her parents and said with a smile.

"Thanks for coming, Mom, Dad. Honestly, I didn't really want you to come."

Irene said, "What are you saying? We're your parents! Of course, we had to come. We wouldn't have known if you hadn't told us, but now that we see the Blakes are here too, there's no way we let you face them alone."

Before she met Josh and Sharon, Irene had some respect for them.

After all, they'd raised Violeta for eighteen years, so they deserved a bit of credit.

But after meeting them, she didn't think they were anything special.

Irene disliked people who blindly favor their kids without considering the bigger picture. Sure, it was okay to back up your child, but you also need to think about who they were dealing with.

The Whites might not be the absolute top in Quinston, but they were definitely among the elite in the high society there.

They wouldn't tolerate anyone bullying Violeta.

They weren't pushovers.

"Thanks, Mom. Thanks, Dad."

"You're our precious one."

Irene hugged Violeta and said, "From now on, Zelena won't be a problem at school. Honestly, she should have been expelled a long time ago to avoid all this hassle."

...

The next day, Toland University announced their decision regarding Zelena's punishment: expelled!

When Gillian and Candy heard the news, they were both shocked.

They never expected things to blow up to this point, resulting in expulsion.

She was expelled from school!

It seemed a bit too harsh.

Gillian quickly tried to call Zelena, but the call didn't go through.

Kaylee was also pretty shocked when she learned about it.

"Violeta, I can't believe they kicked Zelena out of school." "Yeah, I know."

"Wow, that's pretty impressive. But

the school's punishment is reall

harsh, thought they'd just remove her from her position, not actually expel her."

If Zelena hadn't been so difficult, the school probably wouldn't have gone as far as expelling her.

it.

if they were any bit

reasonable, knew exactly what to do.

Violeta spun her tennis racket in her hand and said, "With Zelena expelled and Hattie gone, things are going to be pretty boring now."

Kaylee laughed. "Well, we still have a calm semester left. In our senior year, we'll be out on internships!"

Violeta smiled lightly and gazed into the distance.

She knew Zelena wouldn't just give up. Even though she was expelled, she would definitely try to find a way to bounce back.

It looks like Spring Isn't Blooming was probably out of her reach now.

Violeta figured that might happen.

After all this, Zelena would have

more reasons to get her parents to support her entry into the

et

entertainment industry. With their backing, she wouldn't have to rely on her own money and would be in a much better position.

The tennis club had new elections for president, and Violeta ended up taking over from Jasper with a lot of support from everyone.

There was a separate office for the president in the tennis hall, aside from the lounge.

It used to be pretty run-down, but Jasper had it fixed up with his own money. He painted the walls white and added some cabs and green plants. The room now temporarily belonged to Violeta.

Jasper didn't leave much behind, but when Violeta opened a drawer, she found a lighter that he must have forgotten.

Violeta picked up the lighter and examined it.

It was a silver flint lighter with intricate designs carved into it. With a flick of her thumb on the wheel, a small flame instantly appeared.

The beautiful lighter made Violeta think of the previous user's profile as she lit it.

Violeta didn't smoke, so after playing with the lighter for a moment, she put it back in the drawer.

The new president might be a smoker, so she left it for the next person.

After Zelena was expelled, the school picked a new student council president.

As Violeta had said, things were much calmer at school since Zelena and Hattie had left.

Without Zelena causing trouble, Kaylee could finally live comfortably in the dorm.

During the first semester, Violeta led the club's team in several matches and brought home a few trophies.
