Chapter 987 – My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel

Filed To Story: My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel

“Mom, you know my temper; I was born this way. To achieve my motive, I’m willing to do anything. In my world, there are no rules nor restrictions.”

“If Xiner wasn’t upset, I would have never stepped out to admit that I was wrong. After all, we don’t need your approval for our marriage. I may have come here and knelt and allowed you to release your anger on me, but that doesn’t mean you’re allowed to treat Xiner however you want.

After Mother Bei heard this, she glared at her son, “Without Xiner around, there won’t be anyone to stop you. If you end up killing someone someday, that would not be good.”

At least, for the sake of Xiner, Craig had a bottom line that he stuck to.

This proved how important Xiner was to him.

In the past, he never changed for the sake of others. But now, he had Xiner.

“Xiner’s gone home…”

“Mom…”

“I’ll remember that you lied to me this time. Xiner has already agreed to make up for it, so I won’t bother you about it. But, you need to remember that from now on, if you do anything else wrong, Xiner will have to pay for it. So, I suggest you think things over properly before doing it…”

Was she using Xiner to tie him down?

Even if she was, Craig did not feel restrained like he used to. He was simply happy that Xiner was still by his side. At this moment, nothing else mattered.

More importantly, he had to try his best to not implicate Xiner from that moment on…

So, he immediately rushed home. As soon as he spotted Xiner sitting at home drinking some soup, he walked directly up to her and pulled her into his embrace, “I’m glad nothing happened to you…”

“What could happen to me?” Xiner asked. “Hurry and sit down. Let me see your knees.”

“What conditions did you promise Mom?” Craig asked as he sat down on a chair and rolled up his pants legs.

Xiner leaned over and looked at her husband’s knees. As she examined them, she replied, “I told her, after I give birth, I’ll go over to the Bei Family to do some training!”

“I knew it!”

“I have no choice. Since you won’t go, then I’ll have to go!” Xiner replied.

Since Xiner gave him this response, what else could Craig do?

Could he sit idly by and watch his wife suffer?

As if!

Although he felt he was the biggest loser in the entire battle of lies, for the sake of Xiner…

…nothing mattered. He was willing to do anything; it wasn’t important.

In the end, that was how Xiner and Craig’s drama came to an end. Later on, Xiner would become an expert in the business industry and turn into a prominent figure. However, that was to happen much later.

The more important matter at hand was the latest Sky Honor Awards Ceremony.

As an annual favorite at the event, Emma had become a major focusing point for the awards ceremony, but this year, Eric was added to the mix.

No one understood why he suddenly showed interest in the Best Actor Award; even Emma couldn’t give a definitive answer.

Before heading out, Eric reaffirmed with Luke multiple times that everything was in place. Luke was nervous, afraid of making a mistake.

Eric was executing his plan without Emma knowing. Now, all he hoped, was for Emma to be surprised.

Although the winter red carpet sat amongst the cold and harsh winds, its heat could not be subdued.

Stars shined across the red carpet. After all, it was the biggest awards ceremony and celebration of the year.

Every artist made careful preparations for the ceremony even though they all knew that, with the Roberts Couple around, they would never be the most eye-catching ones. In fact, even if they tried their best, it made no difference. But, at least, ‘The Ant Queen’ did not have a nomination for Best Actress.

The little actress, Coco Li, did an outstanding performance, but she still had many things she could improve on.

This was the only consolation for the other artists that attended the ceremony, but they had no complaints. After all, everyone saw the results of ‘The Ant Queen’ and felt they deserved it.

So, as soon as Emma and Eric arrived on the scene, everyone fought to be the first ones to congratulate them.

Needless to say, the Sky Honor Awards Ceremony was about to become a runway show for the crew of ‘The Ant Queen’.

After arriving at the ceremony, many familiar faces appeared in front of the Roberts Couple. Emma nodded at all of them as a form of greeting.

In reality, Emma didn’t really care if she won an award herself or not. All she wanted to know was whether Qiao Sen would win Best Director. But, the ceremony was relatively long; there were even performances halfway. So, her palms began to get sweaty in anticipation. She was worried that the award that belonged to Qiao Sen would end up in someone else’s hands.

“It could be said, that ‘The Ant Queen’, which was released at the end of the year, has been the talk of the town. After all, for this year’s ceremony, they have been nominated for a total of 6 categories, including Best Actor, Best Director, Best Screenwriter, Best Cinematography…and others.”

As the male host talked, a spotlight suddenly lit up on Emma and Eric. Emma was not prepared at all.

“I have a question for Emma: you are now known as one of the best film producers in the country and plenty of artists want to work with you. Did you ever expect that you would achieve so much?”

Emma received a microphone from the host and replied in a solemn voice, “I simply feel regretful that Qiao Sen couldn’t be here today.”

“I’m sure Qiao Sen is watching from heaven and is gratified by everything that’s been achieved. However, don’t forget that I’m asking about you. Don’t you have any worries for yourself?”

Emma smiled at the host’s question and replied, “I’m doing well at the moment. There’s nothing to worry about.”

From Emma’s response, it was clear to see that she had no interest in answering questions and participating in small talk. She simply wanted the awards presenters to hurry onto the stage.

The host understood and laughed, “Fair enough. This has been the most condensed interview I’ve ever done in my career. In that case, let’s not waste any more time. Let’s present the Best Director Award! Please welcome our guest presenter to the stage…”

Editing, music, cinematography, costume design; Emma didn’t care about any of those earlier categories. The one she cared about, was the award that was about to be presented.

Soon, the guest presenter arrived on stage. After a few words, he pointed to the big screen and listed the names of the nominees.

This was the award that Emma most anticipated: the Best Director Award.

After all, Qiao Sen was amongst the nominees…

“This year’s Sky Honor Best Director Award goes to…the director of ‘Escape Room’, Luo FengPembroke! Congratulations Director Luo!”

Unfortunately, the image on the big screen and the bright spotlights all told Emma that Qiao Sen was not the winner of the award.

He wasn’t the winner!

As soon as he saw the result, Eric turned and looked at his wife.

Emma was speechless, but her eyes had an obvious look of disappointment.

“I would like to specifically clarify that Director Qiao Sen, who was one of the nominees, was unfortunately given lower scores by the judges, due to the fact that he did not complete the entire film that he was nominated for. However, we will forever remember his name. We hope he is at peace in heaven.”

“The judges took everything into consideration and made a fair decision. Don’t be upset by the result. This was beyond your control,” Eric comforted.

Emma turned and looked at Eric as she nodded her head, “I thought the judges favored the living over someone who’s gone. I was being too stubborn with my opinion. It’s a shame to have missed out on this award.”

Eric held tightly to Emma’s hand and did not comfort her any further.

However, Emma completely lost interest in the rest of the ceremony.

“I’m also nominated. Aren’t you curious whether I’m going to win?”

“Mr. Roborts, if you don’t win, how embarrassing would that be?” Emma laughed.

Eric also laughed. It seemed, Emma was certain that the Best Actor Award would be his. There was no escaping.

“Do you know why I applied for the award?”

Under the dazzling lights of the hall, Emma looked at Eric and shook her head, “You’ve never cared about something like this…”

“Because, this glory belongs to ‘The Ant Queen’. Why should I give it to someone else? The Best Actor Award is one of the most important awards. If I win it, it would give the entire film extra points…” Eric explained. “For me, taking home an award may be a pointless thing, but for you, it’s different!”

“We’re talking about Best Actor!”

“Your first film created a Best Actor!”

Emma looked at Eric as her eyes once again lit up.

“So, do you still think that this award isn’t important?”

Emma shook her head.

Eric smiled and tightened his grip on Emma’s hand…

Soon, the time came around to present the Best Actor Award. Of course, this award had no suspense whatsoever, so no one was surprised when Eric’s name was called out. But, they were curious: the Big Boss of the entertainment industry was actually fighting with the ordinary man for an award…

“Please welcome Mr. Roborts to the stage to receive his award and give a speech!” the host said excitedly as he stood to one side.

Eric hugged Emma before he stood up from his seat and headed for the stage like a king gracing everyone with his presence.

Due to Eric’s status, the guest presenter wasn’t an average businessman or simpleton. He was a master from the art scene that was specifically invited to the ceremony just to match Eric.
