He allowed everyone to clearly witness how Emma filmed her fight scenes in water, how she escaped from the jungle and how she put in all her effort to practice when no one was looking…
“When it comes to filming, she puts in as much effort as everyone else. In fact, she may suffer a bit more than the average actor. Did you all think that the film was easy to make? She worked on it, one step at a time. How could you disregard the hard work of others because of your prejudice?”
“I have no say when it comes to her other identities. But, when it comes to being an actress, I don’t understand why you are all against her.”
“Also, when it comes to reputation, it seems we are living in very different worlds. From what I know, Emma’s fans truly admire her and she is loved by almost everyone in New York. I don’t understand why you think she is full of enemies. And arrogant? Huh? Please explain!”
Everyone lowered their heads, unable to refute.
“How about this, let’s postpone the selection for another day. I’ll let you all go home and think things over carefully before we come to a decision.”
Sometimes, one could not explain why they disliked someone. Perhaps, these people did not like that a simple woman like Emma could perform better than a man.
“Let’s postpone until tomorrow. We can come to a decision tomorrow.”
Everyone probably felt that Elder Roberts was asking for the votes to be reviewed, simply because he was trying to justify for Emma’s flaws. This was the first time something like this had occurred during the Sky Honor Awards.
“No matter when it gets postponed until, my decision is firm,” the man with the glasses said, before he stood up and left the room.
This was destined to be an unhappy discussion.
Of course, this was not something that was unexpected of the Sky Honor Awards. After all, the judging panel consisted of well-experienced professionals. So, for the sake of art, they would argue over the smallest detail. But, it did not sound good when news of the disagreement spread to the masses. After all, with Elder Roberts and Emma’s relationship, Elder Roberts was bound to be suspected of being bias towards his granddaughter-in-law, regardless of what he did.
“Is there even a question as to who would win the Sky Honor Award? It’s bound to be Emma.”
“According to sources from within the industry, a decision was already set, but Elder Roberts refused to accept the results. It seems, he is determined to make Emma win.”
“Is the Sky Honor Awards going to lose its usual fairness?”
During this incident, the votes that belonged to Emma were cleared, while the nomination that belonged to her, was considered as ‘having back-up’…
For Emma, the situation seemed a bit bleak.
…
“President, how should we handle the matter?” Luke asked worriedly as he stood inside Eric’s office. “I don’t understand why these people are so blind.”
“Although Elder Roberts attracted a lot of trouble, he actually did something good for once. At least he gave Emma a chance to have the votes reviewed.”
“What if the results don’t change?”
Eric did not respond, so Luke did not dare to continue asking. After all, the problem this time was a lot more difficult than usual.
“We need to solve the displeasure that these people have.”
He did not expect them to be objective, but he at least hoped that they wouldn’t use a casual reason to eliminate Emma from top 5.
…
“I never thought that receiving an award would be this difficult,” Lisa said as she supported Emma while they strolled through the gardens of Hyatt Regency.
“It has never been an easy task to achieve. Just like it wasn’t easy to become a supermodel,” Emma sighed.
“But, doesn’t your heart ache? You were originally deserving of the award, but now, even if you win, you will simply feel relief rather than excitement.”
“I believe that the organising committee will give me a fair judgment. The Sky Honor Awards is, after all, the Sky Honor Awards, they will definitely protect its glory.”
“You are always so confident,” Lisa grinned disdainfully, “If I was you, I would have given up hope a long time ago.”
Emma was unfazed because she had long expected that plenty of people would compete for such a precious award…
Plus, she was never one to sit around and do nothing.
While Lisa was in a panic, Emma smiled as she shook Lisa’s arms, “Don’t worry. What is mine, is mine, no one can take it away from me.”
“You have a plan, don’t you?” Lisa suddenly realized an underlying message to Emma’s words.
“I will simply get the fairness that I deserve,” Emma said with a deeper meaning as she turned her head.
The Sky Honor Awards was a prestigious award; insiders couldn’t possibly let anyone know of their internal disagreement. So, Emma couldn’t possibly believe that outsiders received information from an inside source.
Every single Sky Honor Award in the past had gone through heated arguments, but the organizers always stepped out to end it in fear of an ensuing fight. So, when it came to Emma, would they really expose her to the public’s judgment? If they did this, it wouldn’t matter if Emma received an award or not, she would still be criticized.
If she didn’t receive it, others would say that she caused such a huge commotion only to go home empty-handed and she would be treated like a joke.
And if she did receive it, everyone would say it’s because she had a strong backing. As a result, the award would lose its original significance.
But, was this predicament a coincidence?
The more fair a place appeared, the more darkness it had hidden behind-the-scenes; this was something that Emma understood well.
She didn’t care who she was up against nor what their motive was. As long as someone made a move, she would fight back without any fears.
…
Late at night. Hyatt Regency.
The light in the study room was still on and Eric was still seated in front of the computer, tapping away at his keyboard. Emma peeked in at her husband through the slight gap of the door as she supported her belly. There was no doubt he was working on her issue.
However, she did not open the door and enter. Because she understood, from the moment that she decided to give up being a model to pursue acting, Eric had felt guilty towards her.
And this times incident was obvious that someone was trying to provoke Kaleidoscope and provoke him!
“It’s cold outside, go back to bed,” Eric did not lift his head, but he was well aware that Emma was standing outside the door. Emma was a little surprised as a smile appeared on her face.
“I haven’t been able to sleep well lately. It’s been a while since I’ve seen my husband’s manly face.”
Eric lifted his head and took a deep breath before he waved his wife over, “Come, hurry over…”
Emma opened the door, walked over to Eric and successfully sl*pped into his embrace, “Hubby…”
“Huh?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t get involved with the way you handle PR this time because I view this award highly. I can’t possibly say that it doesn’t matter to me whether I win it or not. I’m not generous to the point where I’d happily give it to someone else.”
Eric hugged Emma as he nodded his head, “No one can stop you from getting what you deserve…I bet these people have forgotten who your manager is!”
Emma looked into Eric’s eyes. The couple had long developed an understanding towards each other, so there was no way that Emma didn’t know what Eric had planned.
…
Since the issue had escalated to this point and varied opinions filled the internet, Kaleidoscope had no choice but to speak up and put everyone back on the right track.
So, the next morning, Kaleidoscope released a statement to reaffirm the fairness of The Sky Honor Awards. Firstly, in the eyes of the public, this decade-old award was well-trusted and was held in high esteem, so its fairness couldn’t possibly be doubted just because of Emma.
Following on, Eric posted up a letter addressed to fans. The title of the letter was simple: “Why I nominated Emma for the Sky Honor Awards!”
