Luke Lowell’s gasp of admiration ca from behind. "Winning an award your first ti at a ceremony... Nina, your talent is really..."

"But then again, I rember you pulled so many all-nighters studying the script. You deserve this..."

In the livestream chat, Nina Kenway’s fans were also cheering uncontrollably.

[Best Supporting Actress! Congratulations, Nina!!]

[Who would dare call our Nina just a pretty face now?!]

[This is so well-deserved. So many of Nina Kenway’s scenes from the movie have been used as case studies at the Veridia Film Academy.]

...

The Best Director and Best Screenwriter awards unsurprisingly went to Anson Colt, a titan of the entertainnt industry. When presenting the awards, the two presenters bowed slightly, showing extre respect. Their status in the industry was far beneath Anson Colt’s; in fact, his status and seniority in the entertainnt world were already unsurpassed. Even though the presenters were highly respected veteran artists themselves, they were still palpably nervous giving Anson Colt his awards.

After the Best Actor award was announced, it was ti for the final, most anticipated award of the night. The host announced the nominees:

"Noelle Raines for *One Month*, Lynn Coleman for *Mist, Not Mist*, Leanne King for *Falling in Love with a City*, and Nina Kenway for *The Search*..."

The large screen began to play clips of the nominees’ outstanding performances in their respective films.

Nina Kenway’s heart was in her throat again, an indescribable sense of panic rising within her.

Ethan Shaw’s concerned voice ca from beside her. "Don’t be nervous. Listen to . Breathe in... breathe out..."

After a few deep breaths, Nina Kenway did indeed feel her tense nerves begin to relax.

The host smiled. "And the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress goes to..."

She paused deliberately, building the suspense.

"Nina Kenway for *The Search*! Congratulations! Congratulations to our new Best Actress! In *The Search*, Nina Kenway plays a heroic mother who spends over a decade searching alone for her abducted daughter..."

Nina Kenway couldn’t hear the rest of the host’s words. The phrase "The Best Actress is Nina Kenway" just kept echoing in her mind. She froze on the spot, unsure how to react. It was as if the massive surprise had hit her over the head, leaving her completely bewildered.

Before the ceremony, many people had told her she had a very good chance of winning "Best Actress." Even so, she hadn’t dared to get her hopes up. She was up against countless talented actresses, and she truly hadn’t expected this...

Seeing that Nina Kenway wasn’t moving, the host couldn’t help but laugh and prompt her again. "Ms. Kenway, Ms. Kenway, are you too happy to move? Co on up! Let’s have Ms. Nina Kenway co to the stage to accept her award!"

The applause from all around grew more fervent. So people were happy for her, so sighed with regret, but most gasped in surprise. Countless people attended these ceremonies only to end up as also-rans. The Golden Rooster Award was the ultimate recognition of an actor’s career, a supre honor. Just winning one was an incredible achievent. They never imagined Nina Kenway would actually take ho two trophies in one night.

"It’s ... It’s really ..."

Ethan Shaw looked into her eyes, gently brushed the hair from her forehead, and said with a smile, "Yes, it’s you. It’s really you. You heard correctly."

Luke Lowell’s astonished voice ca from behind them again. "Holy cow, Nina, you’re the real deal! Two trophies in one night... You actually did sothing I wouldn’t even dare to dream of!"

Luke Lowell was dumbfounded. He added, "Nina, you’d better get up there and accept your award! When you bring the trophy back, let touch it for good luck. Wow, you’re a Film Queen now! This is amazing, congratulations, Nina!"

Nina Kenway slowly walked onto the stage, seemingly in a daze of overwhelming joy. She didn’t hear a single one of the host’s flattering complints.

The person presenting the award was, surprisingly, Anson Colt himself. He wore a kind and gratified smile, nodding repeatedly as he said, "Good girl. You really haven’t disappointed . This trophy is yours. You’ve truly earned it!"

He affird.

"Thank you... Godfather..." Nina Kenway accepted the heavy trophy. This symbolized the nation’s highest honor, and it was finally in her hands. She was so moved it felt almost unreal.

’The tragic future from my dreams hasn’t co to pass. I’m living the life I’ve always longed for. Everything is so peaceful and beautiful.’

Her lifelong dream had finally co true. Nina Kenway’s cheeks were flushed with excitent, like a touch of rouge that made her beautiful face even more vibrant.

Standing so high on the stage, Nina Kenway could see all the guests in the audience below.

Her eyes t Ethan Shaw’s, the joy in them impossible to hide.

Down in the audience, Ethan Shaw raised his phone, capturing this special and important mont.

Nina Kenway also saw many familiar faces: friends she had t on variety shows, industry ntors who had greatly helped her career, and...

Nina Kenway’s gaze swept toward the back, and she had to fight the urge to cry. There, in the VIP section, she saw Rose Kenway and Ian. Her mother was dabbing at tears of joy with a handkerchief, her eyes shining with pride.

Ian, cradled in Rose Kenway’s arms, noticed his mother looking at them and imdiately began waving his little hands in excitent.

Nina Kenway didn’t know when they had arrived, but being watched over by the people she cared about most at such an important mont filled her with a joy that ca from the bottom of her heart.

"I am incredibly honored to receive this award..."

Nina Kenway gently raised the trophy. "To be honest, I’m so thrilled to have the honor of holding this trophy. I’ve imagined this mont countless tis, but now that it’s really here, I’m at a loss for words to express my joy... In the future, I will continue to work hard and bring everyone more and better work. Thank you all so much for your support!"

Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

Holding the trophy, Nina Kenway slowly walked off the stage.

[AHHHHHH CONGRATS NINA! TWO TROPHIES IN ONE NIGHT, HER TALENT IS INSANE!]

[WINNING IN HER CAREER AND IN LOVE! I-I’m so excited I’m stuttering, CONGRATS CONGRATS CONGRATS!!]

[When I saw Nina almost start to cry, I nearly started crying too...]

[*The Search* swept so many major awards tonight, it’s aweso! I recomnd everyone watch it, it’s really good, and all the acting is on point!]

[You can’t even hate on this. Anyone who’s seen Nina Kenway’s performance knows she absolutely deserved both of those awards!!]

...

As soon as the awards ceremony ended, Nina Kenway eagerly led Ethan Shaw over to her mother.

"Mom, why didn’t you tell you and Ian were coming? When I saw you from the stage just now, I almost..."

Rose Kenway smiled dotingly. "How could I miss such an important day? I didn’t tell you because I wanted it to be a surprise. Ethan had arranged for Ian and to sit in the front row, but I’m not used to all the caras up there, so I brought Ian to sit back here instead."
