Chapter 23 It’s Just Luck.
Sophie Sabastian laughed, “Well, you guys don’t praise me, I’m just lucky too.”
“It’s one thing to be lucky, it’s also one thing to be capable, go for it!” After chatting for a few moments, the station manager left. Sophie Sabastian wanted to share the joy with her best friend, but realized that Ximena seemed to be in a bad mood.
“Ximena, what’s wrong?” Sophie Sabastian asked with concern, testing her forehead with her hand.
Unexpectedly, just as her hand was pressed against it, Ximena slapped her hand away extremely quickly and seemed to have a flash of resentment in her eyes, Sophie Sabastian froze for a moment.
“I’m sorry Sophie,” Ximena pulled Sophie Sabastian’s hand, with a headache look, “It’s really because the little one in my stomach is tossing me around enough, I’m in a bit of a bad mood, don’t take offense.”
“It’s fine, it’s understandable.” Sophie Sabastian said, but there was something strange in her heart.
Why did she feel as if Ximena was annoyed with herself?
At seven o’clock that night, Wilton Hotel-
The car stops in front of the red carpet, the rear door opens, and a fully dressed Sophie Sabastian comes out of the car, wearing a black hemline high fashion dress, with a light smile on her face, her temperament is elegant and calm.
As soon as she got out of the car, all the limelights on both sides of the carpet shone over.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Originally, Wilson should have come with her tonight, but Wilson said he had something to take care of, so Sophie Sabastian had to come by herself, waving her hand towards the media on both sides, and entering the hotel with the hem of her dress.
The dinner was not a big one, but there were still a lot of people, including peers and entrepreneurs, who came over to greet Sophie Sabastian when she entered the room, and Sophie Sabastian kept smiling politely throughout.
Sophie Sabastian didn’t expect that Leonardo Cooper would come to this small party!
He was wearing an iron-gray suit, his body was slender and tall, so he stood out, holding a glass of wine, slightly bending down, talking to a few entrepreneurs beside him, he seemed to notice that someone was looking at him, and inclined his head to look over.
Caught in the act, Sophie Sabastian smiles awkwardly and raises her hand to wave at him as a greeting, while Leonardo Cooper just glances at her with an indifferent face before continuing to talk to the people around him.
Sophie Sabastian: “…”
Uh, does Wilson’s Uncle hate her that much, as to have a cold face every time he sees her?
Once all the guests had entered, the awards night kicked off.
The handsome male host took the microphone and went on stage to give his speech, thanking the collaborators first and awarding a few small prizes, while Sophie Sabastian on the stage held her hand tightly, a little nervous inside.
“Well, let’s congratulate Ms. Sophie Sabastian of M TV for winning this year’s New Media Award!”
Under a burst of enthusiastic applause, Sophie Sabastian got up, carried her skirt and walked up to the stage step by step, received the beautiful crystal trophy from the guest of honor, and stood in front of the microphone with great generosity.
“I really thank you all for the recognition.” After all, she was a presenter, Sophie Sabastian quickly adjusted her state and held the trophy aloft, “I will live up to everyone’s expectations and continue to work hard to be the best presenter!”
“Pa Pa Pa Pa!” There was another round of applause from the stage.
Taking a breather, Sophie Sabastian smiled and continued, “Today is the day I won the award, and I must also announce something, I, Sophie Sabastian, am getting married in the middle of next month, I hope you all will have the honor to come and join us then!”
M TV’s popular host burst out that she was getting married, this thing made the whole audience of guests agitated, clapping and congratulating, only Leonardo Cooper was still sitting there quietly, his ancient eyes looking at Sophie Sabastian on the stage.
Was she smiling so happily because she was getting married to Wilson?
The whole banquet didn’t end until 10:30 p. m. Sophie Sabastian didn’t know how many guests she had received in one night, and after standing for several hours in high heels, her legs and feet were numb from standing and she almost couldn’t hold on.
After dropping off the station manager, Sophie Sabastian was ready to leave as well, and when she got to her car, she realized that the driver was actually not there.
“Strange, where did the man go?” Sophie Sabastian muttered, dialing the driver.
“Ms. Sophie, I’m really sorry.” When the call was answered, the driver hurriedly apologized, “My wife is in the hospital with gastroenteritis, I’m taking care of her in the hospital, the car keys are there in the hotel lobby, see if you can find another driver to take you back.”
