Chapter 136

Meanwhile in Paris, the annual event of the biggest award between famous designers who shine this year is being held. Many famous artists, actors and models came.

Entrepreneurs, artists and even politicians enliven the event held every year.

From a series of nominees, Shanum Margaretha's name is a highlight that is quite crowded in the discussion. Of the 12 categories, Shanum Margaretha's name included in the row of young designers at the award event was entered into 3 categories. One of them is the best designer of the year. That's the category Shanum hopes to win.

Today Shanum looks so charming, with a purple dress and a little touch of silver color. Shanum really looks stunning while walking on the Red carpet of the awards show.

Highlights from the media crew's camera make Shanum more shining. The jewelry that he also designed himself adds to the shine of Shanum, in addition to its beautiful appearance. And his body is very proportional.

Leni who saw her cousin's sister was so stunning, did not stop smiling since. In Leni's heart, she really hopes that the struggle of her cousin's brother during this time will pay off. Leni knew how Shanum was trying so hard for all this. Leni really hopes that the results will be as they both expect. Then they will return to Indonesia, and make their extended family proud.

Prove to their extended family, if women can not only give birth to children and take care of the house. They have the right to education to the highest level they can and can be successful. Not like the words of the domineering men in their extended family. If the woman does not have to go to high school. Some even feel that having a daughter is bad karma. They wanted to dispel such an ancient assumption.

And this award, is Shanum's way of proving to his father and his entire family. Even not only domestically, Shanum can be successful and successful abroad.

Shanum entered the venue gracefully. But without him noticing a pair of eyes were staring at him with a sharp gaze. There was also a smile that person grinned looking at Shanum who was walking towards the seat that the committee had prepared for him.

The show began a few moments later. The performers one by one displayed their best performance. One nomination after another was also read. Until the nomination of talented young designer of the year, one of the nominees is Shanum read out.

A standing ovation accompanied the reading of each nominee name mentioned. Also when Shanum Margaretha's name was mentioned, the applause that was present there was so lively.

Leni who was standing backstage was also very nervous. But he kept praying for Shanum to win. Because Shanum's chances of winning were indeed greater than the others. Because he is not just designing clothes. But also the jewelry that has been recognized by the quality of seniors in this city.

But when the nominee reader mentions.

"Oh my God, I'm really very nervous to announce who the winner is. All of them are my favorite designers!"

(Oh my God, I was so nervous reading out who the winner was. All of them are my favorite designers!).

Said a famous singer in the city.

"Okay okay, and the winner for this year's talented young designer goes to...!

(Well all right, and the winner of this year's talented young newcomer designer is.!).

"Kimberly Austin"

Shanum was immediately startled, his face actually showing it. He who had smiled and was prepared to stand elegantly because he was sure to win. Even one of the judges who was also one of Shanum's regular clients had even spoken to Shanum a few days ago. Shanum is the strongest candidate in the nomination. And that makes Shanum sure to win in the nomination. But apparently, even someone else who is.

Shanum's face was indeed very shocked, but he tried to keep smiling at Kimberly Austin as the young woman approached him and asked to shake hands with him. Even Shanum also applauded as the rival walked gracefully while waving his way onto the stage to receive the award.

Backstage Leni even immediately sat limp to hear who won in one of the nominations of the three nominees named Shanum as the nominee.

While from the VVIP bench, a man was smiling while putting his hand on his chin.

"God!"

The show is still going on, some of the performers are back. Until the next nomination is the most preferred jewelry designer this year. Shanum was even very confident that he would win. Because the sale of jewelry designs is even more than other nominees. That means the jewelry design is the one that is much in interest.

Shanum had already tidied up her dress, because if she won, she didn't want any folds in her dress.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this year's most preferred jewelry designer goes to...!"

(Gentlemen and ladies, the winners of this year's most beloved jewelry designers fall to.).

Shanum was already hopeful, and Leni who was backstage also continued to pray.

"Anastasia Moren"

Shanum gasped, he tried to look at the writing that was behind the stage. It's not really his name. And the man in the VVIP line laughed again.

"Continuez in esperer, car votre nom ne sera jamais with comme le gagnant, Shanum"

(Keep hoping, for your name will never be mentioned as the winner, Shanum)

Shanum tried to inhale the air deeply and exhaled it slowly. The two names mentioned as winners, even the quality of their work is still below Shanum. That said one of the judges who was also Shanum's client. And according to Shanum it was true. In terms of creativity and efficient products, Shanum's design is really better.

Shanum was even still sitting quietly between the nomination seats when all had already moved on from there. Including Eva, one of Shanum's rivals who also did not win in the category.

"Hey Shanum, courquoi es-tu toujours assis. Je ne peux pas accepter que tu aies perdu contre Miss Moren. C'est la fille du chef du jury. N'attends pas plus de ce genre de prix Shanum!"

(Hei Shanum, why are you still sitting there. Can't accept that you lost to Miss Moren. He's the son of the jury leader. Don't expect more from this kind of award Shanum).

Eva said that immediately made Shanum feel so choked throat, making it difficult to breathe.

"Huh, I'm not giving up. There is one more nomination. And this is my goal...!"
