Chapter 882
"We're almost done packing, Savannah. You go and enjoy your sweet married life, Mrs. Murray," Selena said happily. Savannah felt weird hearing someone calling her 'Mrs. Murray,' but she would get used to it quickly.
"A word of advice though, Savannah. The Murrays are different from the other aristocrats. They're nice people, so you just have to be yourself most of the time. But it's a big family, so you'll have to put on airs sometimes." Savannah nodded, but Selena was still worried, since Savannah had a mountain of tasks ahead of her. "You'll be meeting a lot of people from here on out, and most of them would show no mercy, but all you have to do is just ignore them." "Yes, I understand. This is the price I have to pay. I'll do my best as the family's young madam."
Well, she faced off against Jane, so I think she'll be fine. She'll be fine. Nobody's going to look down on her. They bade a tearful goodbye, and the Fowlers went back to their home, where a surprise was lying in wait.
Jude had returned, and she had told Pierre she wanted to surprise Selena. Pierre went to pick Selena up, but since they had to attend the wedding and Lindsay's funeral, their return was delayed by a few days.
Jude had been waiting for three days, eagerly looking forward to her reunion with Selena. The last time they met was during the early days of their pregnancy. Back then, their bellies didn't even show, but now, they had already given birth. Jude came back to settle something important. Her movie was delayed for various reasons, but eventually, it hit the silver screen, and thanks to her performance in it, Jude was nominated as best actress for the Golden Lion Award.
She came back to attend the award ceremony, and Pierre would show up too, since he was the sponsor. Of course, Selena would go along with him.
At long last, it was time to announce the best actress, and everyone was nervous. "And now, the Best Actress Award. Please take a look at the screen."
...
All the nominated actresses flashed through the screen, including Jude. "Esteemed guest, if you may do the honors."
The guest went up to the stage and announced, "The Best Actress Award goes to... Jude Knight!"
The venue rumbled as everyone cheered, and Jude started crying She seldom cried, but when she was announced as best actress, she couldn't hold it back anymore. It was her first Best Actress Award. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The crowd was still cheering as Jude went up the stage, holding the skirt of her dress. When she took over the gleaming, heavy trophy, Jude was enthralled for one moment. "I'd like to thank the panel of judges for acknowledging me. In fact, there are a lot of people'd like to thank. Thank you for all your help, and thank you, Stardom, for giving me a chance. Thank you for your trust in me, director. And I'd like to thank myself for giving it my all, but most of all, I'd like to thank my best friend, Selena."
Everyone was shocked by the last sentence, since they never knew Jude and Selena were best friends If they were friends, Selena should have raised Jude to stardom long ago, since Selena was a powerful woman.
Of course they didn't know, since the ladies never told anyone about their friendship, and Selena's social media didn't give away anything either.
