Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism



"Alright then."

Celeste located a production assistant with whom she had a good rapport and gave her the sleeping pills, claimed that they were cold prevention tablets.

The production assistant accepted the pills without hesitation.

During the second half of filming, Violeta sneezed again.

The production assistant kindly approached and offered, "Ms. White, I have something for preventing colds. Take two of these."

Aster, holding a thermos, took the pills from the production assistant.

Assuming they were safe because they came from the production assistant, Aster gave them to Violeta.

After Violeta took the sleeping pills, she felt even drowsier.

During the filming, her legs gave out, and she nearly fell. Nolan quickly supported her, and Violeta leaned weakly against him.

Zelena, observing the scene from the side, clenched her fists.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"I feel dizzy."

What's going on? I only sneezed earlier, and now I am feeling lightheaded. Could this be a sign that I am coming down with a cold? Nolan guided Violeta to a place where she could rest.

The footage from the earlier shoot was unusable due to Violeta's error.

Wade didn't hold it against her and advised, "You should rest for now."

Violeta sensed that she was really unwell, so she didn't force it. She simply replied, "Alright."

She intended to rest on the chair for a while, but she fell asleep as soon as she leaned on it.

When Nolan turned around, Violeta already fell asleep on the chair.

He watched her for a moment and draped his jacket over her.

Aster came over and saw what was happening. She called out to Nolan, "Mr. Spencer."

"Shh, let her sleep.'

Nolan smiled at her while holding the script and said, "Oh, Riverton's nights are indeed a bit cold."

Aster, who was always a fan of handsome men, looked at the attractive Nolan with heart-shaped eyes.

"It's true; the temperature difference between the day and night can be quite large. By the way, I have some cold prevention tablets here. Mr. Spencer, would you like some?"

Nolan responded, "Sure, give me two."

Aster took out the bottle, shook out two pills, and gave them to Nolan.

Nolan found the pills to be incredibly familiar. He broke the pills in half and put them in his mouth. However, he soon spat them out without swallowing.

"Who gave you the pills?"

Aster answered, "The production assistant."

Nolan squinted at the pills in his hand.

Aster sensed something was off and asked, "Mr. Spencer, what's wrong?"

Nolan looked up with a faint smile and replied, "These aren't cold prevention tablets." "What?"

Aster was quite taken aback by the answer. She asked, "Then what are they?"

Nolan replied, "Sleeping pills."

Aster was left speechless,

What the heck? Sleeping pills? How could they possibly be sleeping pills?

Since Violeta fell deeply asleep on set, everyone left her undisturbed.

The director and Wade decided to postpone the filming of Violeta's scenes to a later time.

Zelena's scenes were originally scheduled to be shot after Violeta's scenes.

With Violeta's scenes rescheduled, Zelena was summoned to shoot her scenes with Nolan in advance.

Zelena cherished her scenes with Nolan highly and approached them diligently and seriously.

They wrapped up at the break of dawn.

After the shooting concluded, Zelena sought out Nolan to express her gratitude.

"Nolan, thank you so much for your guidance."

Nolan looked at Zelena and held up his hand, revealing a sleeping pill resting in his large palm.

Zelena looked momentarily taken aback as she asked, "What's this?"

Nolan's usually gentle voice grew cold. "You don't recognize this?"

Zelena continued to feign ignorance. "I don't know what you are talking about."

Nolan placed the pill on the table with a grim gaze, "Didn't you ask Celeste to give the sleeping pills.to the production assistant, claiming they were cold prevention tablets?"

Zelena felt a jolt of panic in her heart.

She never expected Nolan to find out about this!

She quickly tried to come up with an excuse. "Nolan, I... I was..."Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Nolan wasn't interested in her explanations. He turned and walked away without even looking at her, his attitude saying it all.

Zelena stood frozen, her fists tightly clenched once again.

After a few hours of sleep, Violeta woke up feeling revitalized.

confronting Zelena.
