One of the awards presenters was a senior filmmaker in the industry, while the other was a famous director. The two had only praise for The Missing Body, commenting on how it was the underdog in its category this year.

Everyone acquainted with Jayson was congratulating him on his win. As one of his peers, Edgar should be joining in. However, his face was as black as thunder. He suspected Jayson resorted to some dirty tricks to have won the prize.

“The award-winning film will be screened in the front hall. Interested individuals can catch it later when the film festival is over," the host announced.

Hearing that The Missing Body was playing in the front hall, Edgar immediately stood up from his seat and went to watch the screening.

He had hoped to find some evidence to accuse Jayson of playing dirty. However, he felt depressed after watching the short film.
