On the evening of December [-], at Jeffrey Craig's house, in the study.

At this time, there is only half a month before Christmas, and the school is about to have winter vacation.

There is, however, a very important final exam before the school holidays.

Therefore, Jeffrey and Justin, who were about to take the final test, were rushed to the study by Elena to review the knowledge in the textbook.

"Buzz...buzz..."

Suddenly, Jeffrey's mobile phone, which was set to [Silent Vibration] mode, kept vibrating on the desk.

"Jeff, your phone is ringing..." Justin reminded Jeffrey when he saw this.

"Well, I see!"

After hearing Justin's words, Jeffrey glanced at the screen of the mobile phone. After seeing that the call was from Martin Phillips, the general manager of Island Records, he immediately picked up the mobile phone and connected the call.

"Hi, Martin!"

"Hi! Jeff, congratulations!" Martin's excited voice came from the phone.

Hearing Martin say congratulations to him, Jeffrey thought Martin was talking about the box office performance of the movie "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe", which made him a little embarrassed.

"Martin, thank you! It's just that, it's all thanks to Andrew Adamson who directed them. I'm just an actor in this movie..."

When Martin heard Jeffrey answering him like this, he couldn't help but smile heartily.

"Hahaha... Jeff, I didn't call to congratulate you because of the movie you participated in!"

"Ah...? Then...Martin, do I have anything else worthy of your congratulations?"

Hearing what Martin said, Jeffrey was very puzzled. As far as he knew, apart from the movie "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe", he had nothing worthwhile recently. Congratulations in particular!

When Jeffrey was confused, Martin on the other end of the phone said excitedly: "Jeff, do you know? You have been nominated for No.40 Best Newcomer of the Year at the [-]th Grammy Awards!"

"Grammy Awards...? Newcomer of the Year...? This...Martin, you...you're not kidding me, are you?"

This heavy news came too suddenly, and Jeffrey couldn't digest it for a while.

Seeing that Jeffrey doubted the authenticity of his news, Martin felt a little unhappy. As soon as he heard the good news, he called Jeffrey to share it with Jeffrey!

"Jeff, do you think I'll make fun of you with such a thing? This news was secretly revealed to me by a producer friend who is a judge! If you don't believe it, it is estimated that tomorrow morning Grammy The list of nominees for the award will be announced publicly!"

Speaking of which, Martin Phillips was actually very surprised!

Because, when Kojima Records recommended Jeffrey Craig and his single album to the Grammys, they really just had a try mentality.

But what they didn't expect was that Jeffrey really won a nomination for the best newcomer of the year.

…………

Jeffrey can't remember how he ended the phone call with Martin. Anyway, he was stunned when he learned from Martin that he had been nominated for No.40's eighth Grammy Best Newcomer , became a little absent-minded.

"Jeff, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"

Seeing that Jeffrey answered the phone and said a few words, then he looked "out of his mind" in a daze. Justin was very worried. He thought something bad had happened.

"Ah...? I'm fine!" Jeffrey shook his head.

"Really...?" Justin couldn't believe it!

Feeling Justin's eyes full of concern and worry, Jeffrey decided to share the good news with Justin after thinking about it.

"Justin, I... I have been nominated for No.40 Best Newcomer of the Year at the eighth Grammy Awards!"

"Jeff, is this true?"

Justin knew in his heart what the Grammy Awards meant to a singer.

"Well! Martin just told me this news!" Jeffrey nodded to Justin for confirmation.

"Congratulations! Jeff, congratulations!"

After Justin heard the news, he couldn't help but stepped forward and hugged Jeffrey. He was sincerely happy for Jeffrey!

"Thank you!" Looking down at Justin who was hugging him, Jeffrey felt warm in his heart, and he touched Justin's head to encourage him. "Justin, you have to work hard together! Do you understand?"

"Hmm!" Justin snorted in Jeffrey's arms, then raised his head and assured Jeffrey, "Jeff, I will definitely work hard!"

'If I don't work hard, how can I catch up with you? ' Justin thought to himself.
