NovelOnlineChapter 920 Chapter 920: It was especially disheartening because snewcomers at their agency had managed to win the Best Supporting Actress award, while Carrie had only received a nomination.
Feeling deeply regretful for encouraging Carrie to attend, Camille was disheartened.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Morrison family, who had accompanied her, also shared in the disappointment. They recognized that Carrie's failure this twas due to bad luck. Previously, Lauryn had failed to win not because of a lack of talent, but due to manipulative industry machinations. This time, however, it was genuinely because Lauryn's performance did not stand out.
The Lauryn won for wasn't a critical hit nor widely loved; it was among her least impactful roles. Maybe the repeated rejections had quelled her initial fervor, reflecting in a performance that didn't capture the character as vividly as before.
The Morrison family could easily manipulate such awards with their resources and influence but chose not to. They believed in acting out of love for the art and to prove themselves, and manipulating results would undermine this.
They never manipulated outcomes for Jenesis and didn't plan to start with Carrie.
Holding back her feelings throughout the event, once they were in the car, Camille finally said, "How can luck be so against us? Carrie has put so much into her art and clearly has the talent. Why hasn't it been recognized?" To Camille's surprise, Carrie remained cheerful and even let out a chuckle.
She patted Camille reassuringly and said, "Do you really think the world is fair? Look at Lauryn-every one of her past nominations was well-earned, and this time, she got lucky at the cost of her life. If I had known things would end this way, I would have gladly given her this opportunity." "This is just my first project; I have plenty of chances ahead. Even if she were still here, as she got older, roles would have becscarcer, and winning awards would only get harder." Feel the thrill at g aln ov el sJenesis affectionately patted Carrie's head. "You have a golden heart, Carrie. Good luck is sure to follow." Camille, somewhat resigned, added, "That's just like her, always putting others first, never herself. We don't even know Lauryn beyond her public persona. Although we're all in the sindustry, Carrie's connection to her is like that of any stranger. We hadn't even met her before; we only learned of her suicide post-ceremony." Carrie gently scolded her, “Let's show respect for the deceased and drop the subject." "I'm not gossiping, just stating facts," Camille explained.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmReece tried to offer scomfort. "It's just the Best Actress award. She still won for screenwriting, right?" Camille retorted, "But she wins that screenwriting award every year. Winning hardly matters now." Carrie laughed. "It does matter! How can it not? If my own screenplay didn't win, wouldn't that suggest my acting was bad or that I botched my own script?" Reece had intended to drive Carrie back to the Morrison residence, but she declined, citing work obligations the following day and her preference to return to her apartment.
After delivering both Carrie and Camille safely, leaving just the three Morrison family members in the vehicle, Reece's jovial demeanor evaporated.
