Clayton said, “Do you think the awards reception is just a summary and commendation ceremony? This is another
investment promotion. The organizers would want nothing more than to replace all of the nominees with celebrities
with huge followings, but if they do that, everyone will look at them like they’re watching a farce. That’s why there
are people from the acting circle here.”
Nicole glanced at him. “You’re quite knowledgeable.”
“It’s all thanks to you.”
Clayton had really studied the entertainment industry some time ago in order to get close to her.
However, the risk was too great. It was even riskier than the stock market. If a scandal of a celebrity spread, the
capital behind them would definitely be implicated.
However, humans were creatures with emotions, and they sought out pleasures. How would they be as stable as a
product?
Moreover, this circle was too dirty.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs soon as Clayton hinted that he wanted to invest, people started to throw all sorts of women at him. It was just
disgusting.
Thus, Clayton gave up investing in the entertainment industry.
However, he never mentioned any of this to Nicole before, afraid of polluting her ears.
The guest of honor began to announce the winner for the Best Actor award, and the music also changed into a
drumroll.
The drumbeat was suspenseful and hypnotic.
“The award for Best Actor goes to… Joseph Valencia!” The whole audience was shocked.
Everyone looked at each other.
The applause only started sparsely under the host’s prompt, but the actors who had some fame in the circle sat
there without moving.
As they sat there, many people were only hearing the name “Joseph Valencia” for the first time.
Best Actor?
It was absolutely ridiculous.
Joseph Valencia was that celebrity who acted awkwardly in the short film and could not even deliver his lines.
He defeated the two hottest competitors, an acting veteran and Harvey Sage, to win the award for Best Actor!
Nicole’s expression became complicated and stiff for a moment as if she was forced to eat a mouthful of greasy
cake and she had nowhere to spit it out.
She sat in her chair, but she looked like she could not bear to continue sitting much longer.
Clayton patted her hand and soothed her emotions.
“Don’t rush. Since it’s come to this point, at least finish watching before you leave.”
Nicole gritted her teeth. “If this was my house, I’d have smashed this venue!”
It was supposed to be a proper awards ceremony, but it just ended up making her feel revolted.
The actors below also smiled but did not say anything.
When the cameras filmed the people below, everyone’s micro-expressions were slightly weird but surprisingly
uniform.
Under the sparse applause, the next item followed… Clayton sat there leisurely, watching the show.
Everything went according to how Clayton imagined it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe investor behind Joseph must have wanted him to be popular. Clayton wondered who the person was.
Many of the bigwigs in the business world beside him smiled meaningfully.
“That Joseph Valencia… Oh, which company is he from?”
“Who knows? My daughter seems to like him. I thought that he was a woman at first…”
“Hahaha, looks like this wave of heat is pretty strong. It’s much better than spending money!”
Nicole sat there, quietly looking on coldly.
On the big screen, when the camera swept over to Harvey, he was smiling very decently. There was forbearance in
his modesty and a faint disappointment at the corners of his lips.
Harvey just so happened to be sitting next to the veteran actor who was nominated with him. The actor seemed to
be aware of Harvey’s disappointment and reached out to pat the back of Harvey’s hand.
It seemed like he was consoling Harvey. The ceremony finally ended.
Nicole stood up, unable to stand it anymore.
To the side, an old boss spoke up. “Ms. Stanton, Mr. Sloan, will you attend the reception later?”
Nicole pursed her lips. “No. Everyone, please enjoy yourselves.”
Clayton smiled and said, “Farewell…”
