Chapter 839


    A veteran actress once said, “You can be famous by catching a lucky break or by putting in the


    effort to work your way up. However, there will be consequences if you try to force your way through.”


    At the Golden Ox Awards, Trashy Idol was undoubtedly the biggest winner, garnering awards for Best


    Director, Best Chanaean Film, Best New Artist, and also Best Supporting Actor.


    Even though Jonathan didn’t win any awards for his leading role, the nomination alone was a nod to his


    acting craft.


    He might still have a long way to go in building a showbiz career, but there was no denying he had


    already taken his first steps toward sess.


    When it came to acting, some people were born with a natural talent for it, while others had to put in a


    lot of hard work.


    Jonathan, for example, was blessed with good looks but wasn’t naturally gifted.


    Naomi, on the other hand, was quite an acting whiz.


    Their differences stood out even more whenever Greg walked them through the scripts and scenes, so


    it was no surprise that thetter knew them well. Naomi always understood his instructions perfectly,


    while Jonathan could never get them the first time around or at all.


    Despite that, Greg loved them both dearly and wished nothing but the best for their showbiz careers.


    Meanwhile, the list of award winners had begun trending on various social media tforms.


    Congrattions to the new Best Actor!


    Well done to the newly crowned Best Actress of the year!


    A big round of apuse to our new Best Television Actress!


    Angel and Devil may not have won any awards, but they sure have won our hearts on the red carpet!


    Naomi Nn walks away as the Best New Artist and Best Supporting Actress!


    No wins for Jonathan Quickton, but congrattions on his nomination!


    The Best Director goes to Greg Maxwell!


    As soon as the awards ceremony ended, it was time for the celebration party.


    Almost everyone who didn’t win an award had left the venue, leaving only the winners behind to party


    the night away.


    Greg led his film crew and drank a toast to the judgingmittee, producers, and other big shots of the


    entertainment industry.


    His win, coupled with Frank’s imprisonment, had helped to wash away his years of grievances.


    More importantly, he could feel a marked improvement in everyone’s attitudes toward him.


    “With the sess of our box office hit, I’m sure there are people in the industry who will be bitter and


    resentful. Always be mindful of what you say. Understood?” Greg said as he looked at Naomi and


    Jonathan, worried that the youngsters might offend someone with their words.


    Just then, a soft and gentle voice rang out. “Director Maxwell, it’s been a while…”


    Greg turned around and immediately frowned when he saw the pretty woman approaching him. “Ms.


    Rayner.”


    Isabe broke into a charming smile as she raised her ss of red wine. “Here’s a toast to you.”


    Although he was reluctant, Greg gave in and clinked sses with her. After all, it would be petty of him


    if he couldn’t even ede to such a simple request.


    The next moment, however, Isabe suddenly twisted her ankle and lost her bnce.


    Everyone gaped as they watched her fall toward Greg, her wine spilling out of the ss and onto the


    floor.


    Before anyone else could react, Ashlyn threw her ss away and quickly yanked Greg back before


    stepping forward.


    With her now standing in front of thetter, it wasn’t long before she caught Isabe in her arms.


    Isabe widened her eyes in disbelief. The hand around my waist is so strong, and for some reason, I


    feel safe in this embrace.


    When she finally looked up, the face that met hers was gorgeous and wless, with smooth and fair


    skin as well as eyes that sparkled like diamonds.


    Isabe couldn’t help but blush.


    “M-Mrs. Nn, please let go of me.”Original content from N?velDrama.Org.
