Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 63

Upon hearing Hazel's words, Archer remained unfazed. He crossed his arms and calmly observed the white figure on the court. Violeta and Kaylee exchanged a high-five.

"Kay, keep it up."

"Yeah!"

They trained every day for the sake of the league. Violeta gradually regained the feeling of her previous life, and Kaylee's tennis skills improved during training. Their coordination was flawless.

According to the league rules, the match consisted of five sets with three wins, and winning six games counted as one set. The tennis ball flew through the air at high speed, and every swing of the pink violet-colored racket carried a powerful momentum.

Before long, Violeta and Kaylee had already won five consecutive games. Their strength was truly remarkable, leaving the other league teams in awe.

"The women's doubles from Toland University are exceptionally fierce today."

"They are freshmen, right? I heard they are the strongest newcomers of this year..."

On the other side, Archer and the others watched this almost one-sided match. Hazel, who had always remained composed, looked at Violeta and Kaylee's performance and sneered. "They do have some skills."

...

The match will soon be over. Violeta and Kaylee, who were about to secure the victory, showed no signs of fatigue. Seeing this, Zelena, who was boiling with anger, couldn't help but exclaim, "What's going on? Doesn't that woman feel any pain in her feet?"

Her voice caught the attention of another member of the tennis club. He turned his head and looked at Zelena, asking, "Zelena, what did you just say?"

Zelena closed her mouth shut. She didn't expect her words to be overheard! Zelena immediately changed her expression and smiled at him, saying, "Nolan, I didn't say anything. I said they played really well! They're definitely going to win this match!"

"Haha, indeed, Violeta and Kaylee were both amazing in this match!"

Tch.

Zelena lowered her face and rolled her eyes disdainfully.

Win the game? Heh...

Half an hour later, the women's doubles match concluded. Violeta and Kaylee won the match without any suspense and advanced to the afternoon finals. After the referee announced their victory, Kaylee happily embraced Violeta, who simply smiled faintly.

Members of the tennis club rushed over.

"Violeta, Kay! Well done!"

"I knew you wouldn't disappoint us!"

"That last shot was so impressive!"

Kaylee blushed and laughed, "Hahaha, you guys are too kind. Vio is the star player! I'm just there to support!"

Violeta put away her racket and walked to the water station to get some water. The senior logistics member happily handed her the water. Instead of leaving, Violeta stood in front of Zelena.

"Zelena, you seem disappointed."

Zelena clenched her hand under the table, forced a smile, and said to Violeta, "Disappointed? Sis, your victory brings honor to the school. I'm just happy for you."

"Okay." Violeta twisted open the bottle cap and took a sip, her eyes glancing at Zelena with a hint of mockery at the corner of her mouth. "Zelena, your methods are too basic."

Zelena's mouth trembled as she looked at Violeta in disbelief.

What does she mean ...

Could it be, could it be that she knows there's something wrong with those shoes that I gave her?

No, it's impossible!

This woman is not a prophet, how could she possibly know that there's something wrong with those shoes?

"I don't understand what you're saying."

Violeta knew that she liked to pretend, so she shrugged nonchalantly. She then said to Zelena with a calm tone and a proud gaze.

"You should try something new, I'm looking forward to it."

With these words, Violeta picked up the tennis racket on the table, turned around, and left, leaving behind the silhouette of a champion.

Zelena gazed at her back, her fingernails digging into the palm of her hand.

What a joke, this woman dares to look down on her!

She was on the verge of exploding with anger!

Zelena raised her hand and forcefully slammed the basket of water in front of her, creating a loud bang.

The senior who was carrying water next to her was stunned when he witnessed Zelena losing control.
