Chapter 59 The Great Artist They Were Talking About Was Her Mother!
When Zelena glanced over, she noticed Violeta walking alongside Kaylee..
Zelena’s eyes fell on Violeta, and a hint of resentment flashed in her gaze.

Every afternoon after their final class, Violeta would accompany Kaylee to the cafeteria for dinner before heading home.
As they exited the cafeteria, they would pass by the small court on the west side, where Nolan would always be playing basketball. At a seemingly casual moment, Nolan would pause to take a drink and glance towards the two figures in the distance.
The west court was the route they had to take to return to their dormitories after leaving the cafeteria.
Zelena turned to look at Nolan and noticed that his gaze was still fixed in that direction. A sense of dissatisfaction welled up in her heart, and she called out, “Nolan!”
Nolan shifted his gaze away and looked at her. “Is there something else you need?”
Zelena clenched her teeth..
When Nolan looked at Violeta just now, his gaze was softer, but when he looked at her, it was filled with unfamiliarity and indifference.
What was happening?v
Why did that woman always seem to obstruct her?
Zelena was furious inside, but she couldn’t show it on her face to Nolan.
However, there was no point in staying any longer.
“Well then, I’ll leave now, Nolan.”
“Okay.”
Nolan put down his water and continued playing on the court without looking back.
Zelena stood in place, watching Nolan’s retreating figure, and quietly clenched her fists under her sleeves.
At this moment, a ball suddenly flew out of the court and headed straight towards Violeta with incredible speed.
Kaylee happened to be tying her shoelaces as Violeta stood waiting beside her. The ball came at them from the side at lightning speed.
“Watch out!”
Violeta heard the sound of the wind and instinctively turned her head slightly. The basketball grazed her ear and flew past, causing her hair to flutter.
When Zelena saw this, she thought fiercely in her heart. ‘Why didn’t it hit her? She’s so lucky!

The basketball bounced twice on the ground. After that, Violeta kicked it with her toe, sending it flying into her hands,
“I’m so sorry, could you throw the ball back to us?”
The voices of the boys on the court sounded apologetic and playful. So, Violeta turned around with the
ball in her hands.
Nolan stood on the court and looked at her with gentle eyes.
Kaylee stood up from the ground and glanced at the basketball in Violeta’s hands. She shouted towards the court. “Phew, that was close! Why are you so bad at basketball? You almost hit Violeta!”
“Sorry, sorry! I’m so sorry!”
The basketball spun in Violeta’s hands, and a slight smile appeared on her lips. “You want the ball, right? Then catch it!”
She threw the basketball and kicked it with three times the force as before!
One of the boys was prepared to catch it, but when he felt the force of the basketball flying towards him, he suddenly retreated in fear.
“Bang
The basketball went straight into the hoop with precision, leaving everyone stunned.
Violeta clapped her hands. “Be more careful next time. guys. Otherwise, your head might become the hoop!”
“Kay, let’s go.”
“Okay!”
Everyone on the field watched in astonishment as the two of them walked away.
“Oh my god, she kicked it so far with such force…”
Everyone discussed Violeta’s shot.
“Nolan, I think she’s from your club, right?”
“Yes.”
“Oh, I remember now. Are they the two incredibly talented newcomers who joined the tennis club this year?”
Violeta and Kaylee’s names spread widely at Toland University.
Many people had not seen Violeta play, but they had heard rumors about her. So, they were particularly curious and excited.
Zelena stood there, feeling completely ignored.
She clenched her teeth enviously and watched as the men discussed Violeta. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Why?
She was currently ranked first on the campus beauty list, so why was Violeta still more popular?
Nolan wasn’t ignoring her; it was this woman who was blocking her way!
She definitely wouldn’t let Violeta get away with it!

Finally, the cheerleading rehearsal came to an end.
The members participating in the league were also improving their coordination.
Whether it was doubles or singles, Violeta’s skills were unquestionable.
After that day’s training. Violeta overheard a few cheerleaders discussing among themselves as she was getting ready to leave and change in the locker room.
“Lena said she’ll treat us to a performance at the Millennium Grand Theater after the league. I can’t wait!”
“Yeah, and Irene Persley will be there! It’s so difficult to get tickets, do you think she can get so many? I heard the theater is cracking down on scalpers.”
“Lena said she has relatives in the theater who can help us get tickets. Oh my, it’s truly a sign of the times. I remember the first time I saw Irene’s performance when I was very young. My grandmother is her loyal fan!”
Irene, as an artist from the older generation, had remarkable achievements in the art world.
The discussion among the group became animated.
Violeta paused while zipping up her jacket, as she caught onto a familiar name.
Her mom’s performance?
The great artist they were talking about was her mother!
Perhaps because Irene was her mother and she spent every day with her, Violeta felt a sense of pride welling up inside her as she heard the others praise her mother for the first time.
Yes! That was her mother!
She gently closed the locker door and glanced towards the cheerleading squad not far away.
Kaylee, who was beside her, noticed Violeta’s gaze and asked, “Vio, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
Kaylee had also overheard the conversation among the cheerleading squad just now.
She smiled and asked, “Vio, are you also a fan of Irene Persley?”
Violeta’s eyes flickered slightly. “Well, sort of.

Kaylee sighed, “There are probably not many people in the performing arts who don’t admire her. By the way, she’s also a graduate of Toland University, so she’s our senior! I’ve been wanting to see her performance for a long time, but unfortunately, it’s so difficult to get tickets for the Millennium Grand Theater, especially for Irene’s play.”
Violeta said. “You like her too? How about I treat you to it after the league?”
“Huh?” Kaylee exclaimed, looking at Violeta in astonishment. “Can you
“Well, I have some connections,” Violeta said mysteriously.
Her connections were much stronger than Zelena’s.
you get tickets?”
If Violeta wanted to go, she wouldn’t even have to spend money. She could just ask Irene for insider tickets, the ones with a great view from the front row!
“Wow!” Kaylee’s eyes sparkled. “That’s amazing! I’m so lucky to be friends with you!”
“Hahaha!”
“I wonder if Hayden and the others will go. We should all go together!”
Finally, the league began.
Leading the team this time was Nolan. Violeta and Kaylee sat together in the back corner of the bus.
In the front row were the cheerleaders, and as soon as Zelena got on the bus, she started talking non– stop, giving everyone a headache!
