Not only did Stacey win the award, but Charlie did, too, and the organizer even invited Charlie to present the award to him with her. The ceremony's atmosphere was elevated by the host's brilliant cooperation with the lighting.
But after standing on stage, Stacey looked down and noticed a familiar figure in the crowd, which was J. She was surprised to find J there as well. She simply thought about it for a while, engaged with the host alongside Charlie, and finally delivered an acceptance speech to the audience. After going through all of the procedures, their part was finally completed. Stacey and Charlie descended from the stage with their awards.
Not only them, but Malcolm also won the award. When he got on stage, he specifically mentioned Charlie and Stacey. He thanked Charlie for giving him the opportunity to perform and Becky, the lucky star, for bringing him good luck. He stated that after meeting and cooperating with Becky, his life seemed to get luckier. He also sincerely hoped that she would become happier and better in the future and that she would share some of her good fortune with him.
Malcolm's speech made many people laugh, and even the host teased him. In the end, the host inquired about Malcolm's willingness to work with Becky in the future. Malcolm stared squarely at the host, then turned to face Becky before returning his gaze to the host. He responded, "Aren't you talking nonsense? Becky is my lucky star. If there is a chance to cooperate with her, I would say yes."
The host burst out laughing instantaneously. He even got off the stage and placed the microphone before Stacey, asking, "Becky, are you willing to cooperate with Malcolm?"
Without realizing it, Stacey instinctively glanced at Hayden sitting next to her before returning her gaze to the host. She smiled as she spoke to the microphone. "In the future, I may devote more time to my family company and family. I don't have much time to act. Therefore, cooperation may be contingent on chance."
The host deliberately made an exaggerated expression and quipped, "Are you going to inherit a hundred million worth of family property?" After that, everyone laughed, and many people looked at Stacey with envy. Hayden also grinned and looked expectantly at her.
Stacey chuckled and added, "Not that much. I'm going to return to my family business for training and assist my father with some of the job."
"I see. It's just a matter of earning 20 million dollars per day," the host interrupted. Stacey grinned, slightly twitched her mouth, and glanced helplessly at the host.
The whole audience also laughed, and everyone was amused by the host.
The host soon withdrew, and she returned to the stage to preside over the following show.
Everyone's attention quickly shifted to the following show, particularly several actors who were nervously hoping and expecting to win the award.
J, on the other hand, was the

high-end gown and went on the stage gorgeously to accept the awards. On the contrary, J hadn't received a good character for a long time because her public image had already been tarnished. Even if some lesser-known dramas were filmed and released, many anti-fans would criticize her.
J gritted her teeth and could only comfort herself that she was about to hook up with Ryan and would soon settle down. So, she would undoubtedly receive greater resources in the future. As long she worked hard, she would

and silence Rebecca. However, her obsession was swiftly taken over by reality because Rebecca stated that she would return to manage her family's business in the future and would inherit the family industry chain.
From that moment on, J's head began to hum, and memories of the preceding days rushed across her thoughts. Rebecca was a poor child when they were kids. Rebecca would be unable to eat properly as long as J remained unhappy. As long as J refused, the housekeepers dared not add quilts for Rebecca, leaving her to shiver in a cold winter. J could still remember vividly how pathetic Rebecca was when she tried to abandon Rebecca, causing her to cry while chasing their car.
J pondered, 'Why did things turn out this way? Rebecca is just a pathetic wretch. She's just an unwelcome wretch!' She clutched her purse hard, but fortunately, she quickly regained her composure. She hurriedly loosened her grip and carefully checked whether the purse was damaged. She was different today since she lacked enough money to buy any purses, thus she treasured each purse dearly.
After ensuring that her purse wasn't damaged, J raised her head and returned her gaze to the stage. However, she would unconsciously turn her focus to Rebecca, who sat in the front row, or Stacey, as she was known now. She thought resentfully, 'What's so good about Rebecca instead of having a greater destiny than I do?' Soon, time passed unconsciously until the entertainment ceremony concluded.
J grew nervous immediately following the ceremony. Her glance moved around the directors at the scene. She needed to appear in a popular drama to make a comeback. She wasn't interested in the new directors. Instead, she attempted to locate famous directors, but after looking around, she soon identified those directors.
There were numerous directors, all well-known in the entertainment industry. Now, they were all talking to Stacey and Charlie. J's expression clouded. However, she instantly changed her facial expressions and walked over with a smile. She had to make it, even if it meant lowering her dignity and shamelessly approaching the directors to speak. Even if it was just for a role, she needed the opportunity to turn the tables. More importantly, she had to have the opportunity to turn the tables so that she could continue to get along with Joe. When she became popular and everyone admired her, he adored her. On the contrary, he would regard her as a replacement and could abandon her at any time. Her goal was to become Joe's wife. Thus, she needed to make herself more attractive, dazzling, and charming so that Joe would be more interested in her.
J approached Stacey and greeted her with a smile, saying, "Congratulations on winning two awards."
