    Chapter 270 Clinching the Award


    “Next, we’re going to hand out the Best Actress Award for the 23rd Silver Fox Awards. The actress who


    clinched the Best Actress Award this time is… Meredith Yard!”


    Streamers rained down the entire auditorium. Meredith couldn’t believe her ears. She indeed wanted


    the award, but she also felt that Jude was more likely to get it because the movie for which she was


    shortlisted was truly superb.


    All cameras focused on Meredith who once again clinched the award for best actress. Meredith


    hesitated for a moment before she stood up. She then shed a smile at the people around her before


    hugging those near her. Finally, she picked up her silver gown and sashayed up the stage.


    Subsequently, the cameras even panned over Jude since she was the most promising actress for the


    Best Actress Award this year. When the awards ceremony announced the shortlisted actresses, many


    had spected that she’d win.


    There weren’t many good works this year, and that meant lesserpetition. At a single nce, one


    could tell that the other shortlisted actresses were merely there for the sake of show since their work


    was right there for all to see. However, the movie in which Jude acted was unique. While it wasn’t a box


    office hit, her performance was favored by many influential directors, and several renowned directors


    evenplimented her acting skills on Twitter after watching the movie. On the other hand, Meredith’s


    work was also quite good, but there was no significant breakthrough in her acting skills. It was average,


    neither good nor bad. Thus, Jude was the more likely winner, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be


    Meredith.


    Meredith choked up a few times, but apuse rang out from below the stage again and again, giving


    her much encouragement. Taking the trophy, she picked up the microphone. “Actually, I didn’t prepare


    an eptance speech today. Too many things have happened recently that caused me to start


    doubting myself constantly, so I didn’t even believe that I could win this award. I hereby thank all the


    judges’ affirmation of me. Thank you!”


    Everyone present knew that she hadn’t had it easy, what with the Yard Family going bankrupt and her


    sister going to prison. Every single incident was a huge blow to her, and her image as the perfect


    goddess was crumbling bit by bit. But at this critical moment, she clinched the Best Actress Award. This


    had people inevitably envious of her. She’s truly lucky and blessed.


    “Taking this opportunity, I’d like to thank someone in particr for always supporting me at my back


    silently when I was at my lowest. His hugforted my battered heart, and his smile ceased my


    perpetual tears. Here, I’d like to say, I love you.”


    The auditorium plunged into silence before thunderous apuse broke out. After all, what did this


    eptance speech by Meredith imply? It implied that she had a boyfriend! So, is she publicizing her


    rtionship?


    Backstage, Landy smiled as she looked at Meredith on the stage. This Best Actress Award has solved


    all current problems. Besides, her statement earlier will probably upy the top search queries on


    Twitter for several days. She can be rid of her family scandal and continue being the most popr


    actress.


    Meanwhile, Jude merely found itughable as she stared at Meredith on the stage.


    When the awards ceremony had ended, the media naturally surrounded Meredith. Meredith’s smile


    was bright and dazzling as she held her trophy. “Miss Yard, is the person you mentioned in your


    eptance speech earlier your boyfriend? Can you please respond to this?”


    “Miss Yard, can you reveal who your boyfriend is?”Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    As expected, all the reporters kept pursuing this question.
