Chapter 290 She hadat won any acting awants, but if people asked her privately, Sydney wouldn’t think it’s a big deal.
Her shows‘ streaming numbers were way higher than her peers, and she was pretty confident about her commercial value.
But Celeste just hit her weak spot in front of everyone.
Seeing her remain silent for a while, Celeste slightly smiled. Why is Ms Denton not saying anything? Too many awards to remember?”
Sydney forced a smile, “I don’t really care about awards. If the audience likes my work, then it’s good. The judges have different opinions on acting, and we cant just measure a person’s acting skills by the number of awards.”
“Oh Celeste nodded, “I actually think that the judges‘ eyes are quite accurate, because they have all reached a high level in their own fields and have the qualifications to sit in the judges‘ seats and grade others. If even the judges don’t approve of an actor’s acting skills, then they probably. really can’t act. And someone who can’t act has no right to judge others.”
If her comments earlier were blunt, then Celeste’s words piercing, almost like cursing her directly.
But she had no words to defend herself.
After seeing Sydney’s response, Celeste let out an “ah” and said apologetically, “Don’t mind it, Ms. Denton. I didn’t mean to target you. We were all just chatting here and only mentioned it casually. You’re not angry, are you?”
She remembered Sydney’s words clearly and used it against her.
Didn’t Sydney say she wasn’t targeting her? Two could play that game.
Sydney’s face was stiff and she didn’t speak for a while.
Finally, Mrs. Kelley broke the silence, “We said we’re just chatting casually, Ms. Campbell. Don’t take it seriously.” She paused, “Ms. Denton, have you prepared anything for us?”
Celeste glanced at Mrs. Kelley but didn’t say a word.
Mrs. Kelley got along well with Skyler, and Celeste didn’t want to talk back to her and cause trouble. So she didn’t say anything.
She just found it strange that Mrs. Kelley would hold a grudge for such a long time for just a few hundred thousand, and even for that reason take the side of an actress she didn’t like.
Celeste thought the matter would end here. She wasn’t the kind of person who loved to get into trouble. If it wasn’t because Sydney came to provoke her first, she wouldn’t even bother with her.
If Sydney were truly better than her in every way, her competitive spirit would’ve be triggered, and she would have to compete with her. But this person wasn’t outstanding in any way, so she couldn’t be bothered to argue with her because it wasn’t worth it.
She glanced at the high heels that Sydney was wearing and began pondering again.
She wasn’t sure how Sydney got on the cruise. She did have a performance tonight, but it wasn’t theater but a piano recital.
The piano on the deck was already prepared, with an accompanying orchestra, looking very professional.
