Chapter 1776 Award for Best Actor and Actress
“There’s no need for that. Wait for me to change. We’ll be having dinner after that.” Jessie had been on a diet for
the commercial shooting, which resulted in her current hunger pangs. That night, Julian treated her to dinner and
even ordered takeaway for her as supper.
Then, March arrived in the blink of an eye, bringing two good tidings. The first one confirmed Eva was pregnant,
while the second one was regarding their latest movie being nominated for an award. Even so, the award remained
a mystery to them for the time being.
Eva didn’t expect herself to be pregnant when she traveled home for vacation. Thus, after she returned to the city,
the people around her viewed her as the object of protection.
Jessie was delighted when she heard such excellent news as she was expecting the birth of two children this year.
One of them belonged to Queenie, while another one belonged to Eva.
So far, she and Julian hadn’t decided on their wedding date. After all, she was content with spending time together
with him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe 24th of March was considered a big day for celebrities as the awards ceremony this year was held on the same
day. It also provided the occasion to review excellent works over the year. The ceremony would give out awards to
both the best actor and actress, along with other prizes to recognize the industry’s accomplishments.
Jessie, Julian, and the crew walked down the red carpet, bathing in the background music and the fans’ screaming.
Soon, they walked over to the sign-in board. The instant she signed her name, he left his signature next to hers
before drawing a heart that circled their names.
His gesture didn’t go unnoticed by the camera operators nearby. They immediately gave his work a close-up. His
gesture was evidence of his affection for her, even if it was a simple one.
After that, they walked into the ceremony hall. Even though she was merely a rookie in the industry, their
relationship suggested that she would become more than that in the future. Thus, the organizer arranged a seat for
her beside him. Their name tags next to each other indicated the best wishes from the industry for the future
couple.
“Are you nervous about the ceremony?” He gently held her hand in his.
“Not at all. I’m doing my best to stay calm.” She shook her head. Even though she was surrounded by the flashing
lights, to her, there was nothing around that could ever compare with him.
Therefore, she was happy even if she didn’t win any award because he was the best thing that ever happened to
her.
The ceremony began in the crowd’s nervous anticipation after the opening show. Then, the hosts announced the
winners with excited voices. After that, the audience was all looking forward to the announcement of the award
winners after the awards for both the best supporting actor and actress, followed by various awards for the behind-
the-scenes team.
The most significant awards of the night were none other than the Award for Best Actor and the Award for Best
Actress.
All of them were highly anticipating the announcement of this year’s winners.
“Next, we’ll be glad to have the presidents announce the best actor and actress. Please welcome Mr. Leads and Mr.
King,” the hostess began with a bright smile on her face.
The men got up on the stage. Both of them were holding an unopened envelope respectively. After they exchanged
a few jokes, the music that followed built up the tension in the air.

“Coming up next, we are going to announce the winners of the Award for Best Actor and Best Actress. The winner
of the Award for Best Actor is Julian Gilmore, and the Award for Best Actress goes to Jessie Silverstein.”
Jessie was overjoyed with the news of Julian as the winner when she unexpectedly heard her name. The words
struck her like lightning, rendering her utterly dumbfounded for a split second as she had difficulty processing them
and doubting herself.
“Am I hearing my name?” She sought assurance from him.
He took her hand. “You are. Let’s go.”
There was a stir in the audience. Several people were eyeing her enviously as he led her onto the stage, hand in
hand. After all, she used to be an unassuming double for other actresses, and it was merely her first movie in her
career.
However, Julian, who was widely recognized as the most handsome man in the industry, was now holding her hand
as they stepped onto the stage. Plus, she also won the Award for Best Actress, which created a record for achieving
such an accomplishment after starring in her first movie.
Lisa was one of the people who couldn’t contain her jealousy. She balled her fists tightly as she struggled to accept
that all the good things had happened to Jessie.
