The Beauty and the Brain

Chapter 82

“I have a friend in the judging panel of this Drama Feast, saying that someone gave them a big gift.

Guess who it is?” Andres’ voice was full of joy.

Stunned, Marie asked, “Carly?”

Andres said, “You’ve spoiled it. Can’t you guess a few more times?”

She immediately asked, “Can your friend decide not to give her the award? Can you leave.

evidence?”

Andres was speechless, “It’s really unlucky for Carly to provoke you. Okay, I’ll find a way to get them to

return the gift, but I can leave the surveillance video and call records.”

“That’s great!” Marie said happily, “I’ll treat you to dinner later!”

Andres immediately said, “No! Please don’t! If Dennis finds out that you’re having dinner with me, he

will surely take back the Global Medias. I’m going to be unemployed soon!”

Marie was speechless.

As soon as Andres hung up the phone, he immediately called Dennis again, “Dennis!”

Dennis’s head ached when he heard the cheerful voice. He rubbed his brow and said, “Say it.”

“I need money to help Marie bully Carly!” Andres said concisely.

“How much do you want?” Dennis was very straightforward.

“750 thousand dollars will do.” Andres felt no shame in his hogging.

“I’ll have Cullen transfer it to you later. Don’t mess it up.” Dennis hung up the phone and asked

Cullen to transfer the money.

Andres was happy. Marie was really a cash cow. Dennis would consent to anything at the mere sound

of Marie’s name, without even asking for it.

At the awards ceremony, Zane performed a song from his new album as a guest performer and

received cheers from the audience.

The host announced that Carly, Sasha, and two new actresses had been nominated for the Best

Newcomer Award, and the final winner was Sasha!

Carly was stunned. Why was it Sasha? Dad told her clearly that he had taken care of the judging panel.

Wasn’t this the award given to her?

Ira turned to look at her and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Carly shook her head. “Nothing. I’m a little disappointed.”

Get Bonus

Ira patted her hand and comforted her, “It’s okay. There are other awards later.”

Carly nodded. The Best Newcomer Award might not have much value, and her prize should be at the

back.

After another round of performances, the Most Popular Actor Award was presented. The winner was

undoubtedly Darwin.

Darwin stood up and tugged at his suit. He walked onto the stage to deliver his acceptance speech. A

group of fans behind him cheered and screamed. Darwin smiled and looked at the audience, saying,

“Thank you, Ms. Michelson, for making the current Jaime Constance!”

His words pushed the atmosphere to a climax!

“Oh my! Jaime and Jordyn!”

“Please be together!”

“What kind of handsome face is Darwin? He’s so flirtatious!”

“Give Sasha a shot! I want to see her!”

“Zane must be thinking, ‘It was supposed to be a three-person story, but I never had my name on

it.””

The bullet comments went wild, and the fans’ screams were about to overturn the roof. Many viewers

were hurt because of the death of Jordyn in the Against the War. It seemed that they were united again

today to fulfill their wish.

Sasha sat under the stage. She sighed as she looked at Darwin, who was playing a drama on the

stage. Can’t he stop making a scene for one day?

The audience shouted the names of Darwin and Sasha loudly. Carly clenched her fists. Wasn’t Sasha

relying on herself to hook up with Darwin?

What about Marie? She hooked up with Andres? What’s the big deal? Her Ira was much better than

these people! Just Jet Sasha be proud for a while longer!

Immediately afterwards, the Most Popular Actress Award was nominated by Shirley, Sophia, Carly,

and Sasha!

Carly smiled. The ratings of Youth were very good. When the netizens voted for the most popular

actress online, she received a high number of votes. Mason even took care of the judging panel. She

would be the only one who received the award.

On the big screen, the works of the four actresses were released one by one. When it was rolling, the

host announced, “The most popular actress…”

The camera swept in front of the four actresses in turn. Carly straightened her dress and was ready

to get up.

“The most popular actress of the year, Sasha!” The host announced loudly, and the audience

applauded.

When the camera was pointed at Sasha in her seat, she hadn’t reacted yet, but Carly had already

stood up. That was an embarrassing moment. Ira pulled Carly and let her sit down.

Sasha smiled at her, stood up, and went on stage to receive the award.

Because of this, an argument had been raised in the bullet comments.

“Why is Carly standing up? Does she want to receive the award?”

“I’ve never seen someone as confident as her. Shirley doesn’t even dare to stand up. How dare she?”

“Shut up! Carly is not that kind of person!”

“That’s right! Carly looked at the door just now. Obviously, she wanted to go out! Don’t mess

around!”

Carly’s fans attacked the others crazily, and the comment area gradually quieted down.

Sasha stood on the stage, holding the trophy. She took a few deep breaths and said, “Thank you very

much for your recognition. What I want to thank most is my boss, who trusted me and made me able to

keep my dream. Without her, there would be no Jordyn in everyone’s eyes!”

Sitting in front of the television, Marie was happy to hear Sasha’s words. She knew that the boss Sasha

was talking about was her, but she couldn’t expose herself yet, so she couldn’t go to the

scene with them.

The fans shouted Sasha’s name, while Carly sat in her seat with a livid face.

How could this happen? This prize should have been hers! How could it be Sasha’s?

Wasn’t it done? Dad told her that the prize was in the bag! Why did it turn out like this now!

When the camera swept over, Carly’s angry face was caught on camera before she could reorganize

her expression.

Soon, the hashtags “Jaime and Jordyn” and “Darwin and Sasha” quickly became the trending.

topics.

At the same time, the hashtags “Carly Angry” and “Carly Mistakenly Believed That She Got an Award”

were also trending.

The whole process of Carly standing up confidently and sitting down awkwardly was photographed, as

well as when Sasha gave her award speech, Carly was sitting with a sullen expression, and they

were all posted on Twitter.

Carly’s and Sasha’s fans were quarreling on Twitter.

“Carly is so funny. She didn’t win the prize and blame it on Sasha?”

“Our Carly is not trying to receive an award at all!”

“LOL. If so, then why did she stand up? Did she want to find a place to pee at the award site? That’s so

celebrity.”

“Isn’t Sasha just relying on the popularity of Darwin to win the award? What’s the big deal?”

“Sasha is notoriously grumpy in the circle, yet you compliment her for being gentle? Gee, are you.

blind?”

“Fine. We can’t afford to mess with Ms. Spence. After all, she still has the support of a sister who is

the best actress!”

“Take Ms. Sasha away for Darwin. We can’t afford to mess with her.”

While the fans were quarreling, Andres had already sent the video and call records of Carly bribing the

judges to Marie. She put them away, for it was not the right time yet.

There should be a banquet after the awards ceremony. Darwin and the others could handle these

things themselves, so she didn’t have to worry about it.

After turning off the television, Marie walked out of the company and waited for Luca to pick her up.

She promised Dennis to go to France with him, and she also promised that she would not approach

Wren. She would just go and take a look and come back, but she was always uneasy.

She stood on the side of the road and called Luca, asking him when he would arrive, while a van

stopped in front of her. The car door opened, and two burly men jumped down, covering her mouth and

dragging her into the car.

Her phone fell to the ground. Before she could resist, a pungent smell rushed into her nose, and she

instantly lost consciousness.

When Marie woke up, she was dizzy. The smell was familiar to her. It was the ether that they used to

use. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

She rubbed her head, sat up, and looked around at the gooey light and big bed. Needless to think, she

knew what would happen next.

The question was who kidnapped her?
