My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 838

Chapter 838

The voice of the male host rang out. “Kelly Zimmer.”

Kelly was all smiles, ready to stand up and hug the assistant director beside her. However, the male host merely offered her a faint smile. “You’re particularly beautiful tonight, but I’m sorry. You can only keep trying next year.”

Kelly was instantly overcome with disappointment. At the same time, the spotlight that shone on her face also dimmed.

In her dazed state, she vaguely heard the male host announcing that the Best Supporting Actress was Naomi.

Her mind went blank. Why her? We are similar in appearance and style. Isn’t it just because she’s a few years younger than me that she was deserving of the Best New Artist Award? I’ll be considered a veteran if I remain in the industry for another two years and won’t be able to clinch this award anymore. Best Female Lead Award is too huge of a feat for me, but can’t I even get a Best New Artist Award? Those males in the judging committee, I’d approached all of them… They already readily agreed in bed. So why did this happen?

Kelly sat there in despair before quietly leaving the lively awards ceremony.

Even Isabella was stunned.

A rookie winning two awards? I’m so pissed!

Sandra was also furious.

How shameless can Naomi be just to clinch an award? The female lead of Trashy Idol nominated for Best Supporting Actress? What a joke! Are those judges blind? Naomi is the female lead, but they

placed her in the Best Supporting Actress category. Didn’t they do it because there’s less competition here?

She was completely consumed by rage and stared at Naomi from time to time. Could this b*tch have used some shady means to win?

After the Best New Artist Award in both male and female categories had been given out, the awards for male and female leads came next, starting with Best Male Lead.

He was a veteran actor who usually won many awards, so no one was surprised when he received the award.

Next was the Best Female Lead Award. That, along with the Best Male Lead Award, was the most prestigious and highly-anticipated award.

The Best Actor had already been revealed, and following that was the Best Actress.

Isabella stared nervously at the stage. She kept praying hard that it must be her and not anyone else.

Sandra also kept her eyes glued to the big screen, staring at the envelope in the hands of the awards presenter.

She was so nervous that it hurt to breathe. Nonetheless, she felt that she did not stand a chance. With my acting skills, how can I possibly compare with those veteran actresses? But the Best New Artist Award went to Naomi, which means that I’ll go back empty-handed for this year’s Golden Ox Awards. Not only me but even “Angel and Devil” did not win a single award.

She was lost in those depressing thoughts while everyone around her stared at the stage.

When the result was finally revealed, Isabella sat in her seat, looking pale.

It was not her, but another actress. It was not Sandra either.

Sandra felt a little better, given that as a rookie, to be able to be shortlisted was already a kind of recognition of her skills.

Isabella, on the other hand, came with great expectations, so her disappointment also came from the fact that the recipient of the previous Most Popular Actress was also not her.

It must be Ashlyn… She must’ve done something to allow the award that was originally mine to go to someone else. This must be the case.

She hated Naomi and Ashlyn deeply. It’s all because of those two. Those awards should’ve been mine!

Kelly and Sandra also hated them.

Those three women of differing popularities in the film and television industry hated Ashlyn and Naomi at the same time.

Immersed in hatred, they simply did not think about their shortcomings but blamed everything on others.

Being popular depended on luck and ability, and lack of popularity was a case of misfortune and lack of determination.

Opportunities were for those who were prepared.

Self-righteous efforts did not guarantee rewards.

Only true efforts would pay off.
