Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1044

"What my mentor decides to do is not something a child like you has the right to judge!" Michelle sneered, firing back without an ounce of hesitation.

Years ago, Michelle had been just an average tennis player, completely unable to break into the Orient Country national team. Desperate for results, she spent almost all her time on the court. Outside of eating and sleeping, she did nothing but practice.

Then, one day, she ran into a girl who casually offered to teach her a couple of moves. At first, seeing how young the girl was, Michelle hadn't taken her seriously. But then they played two matches, and the girl absolutely crushed her, leaving her in total awe. She had never seen anyone with such incredible skills. She had practically begged on her knees, crying about wanting to bring honor to her ancestors and serve her country, pleading with the girl to train her.

To her surprise, the girl agreed. From then on, the mysterious girl frequently showed up at the courts, coaching her in every aspect of the game and acting as her sparring partner. In just six short months, Michelle's skills skyrocketed. She smashed her way onto the national team, competed globally, and won numerous prestigious awards. Her fame exploded overnight, bringing in millions in endorsements.

Later on, her mentor stopped appearing in person, only occasionally answering her questions via messaging app. The weirdest part was that she could never find a single trace of her mentor anywhere in the tennis world. Age, nationality—everything was a blank. When she had asked for a name, the girl just smiled faintly. "We met by chance. Just call me Miss Seven."

It happened to be the seventh of the month. Still, it didn't matter who she was, as long as she helped Michelle win.

Now that Michelle was back in the country, she had planned to recommend Sheryl to her mentor for some short-term intensive training. Sheryl had decent potential, and with that kind of backing, she could definitely carve out a place in the international circuit. That way, Michelle would have a useful ally overseas.

She had never expected to hear that Sheryl had been beaten so badly by some unknown student that her racket had gone flying. That was no different from a soldier dropping their gun on the battlefield! It was an absolute slap in the face to her as a coach! So, the moment she stepped off the plane, she rushed straight to the university to see this arrogant 'attacker' for herself. If the girl actually had good skills, maybe she could recruit her as a student and use her.
