18. Player selection

When many things are rushing at once, there is no spirit, but time passes quickly.

As her mother, Isabella was busy acting as Han Myeong-sik’s woman without her eldest daughter’s knowledge, in between deciding the elementary school and preschool her three daughters would attend and completing the transfer process for her.

Claire is delighted with the offer of scouting from a well-known agency in the industry, and is devastated when she is asked to sort out his personal life as soon as he signs the contract.

“Who knows what sneaks in and out?”

“But…”

“The agency isn’t asking too much, just accept it.”

Despite Han Myeong-sik’s persuasion, Claire continued to hesitate, and Isabella stepped forward and scolded her eldest daughter.

“Myungsik even provided me with such a nice house and cheered me on, so are you going to keep saying weak things?”

“Mom…”

“Don’t you want to hold your mom’s hand and go to the audition? Doesn’t she want to do what she failed four years ago!”

Perhaps it was thanks to her confidence as she became a woman of Han Myeong-sik, Claire smiled with emotion at her motherly scolding.

“You’re not breaking up with me like this, are you?”

“How much money has gone into you so far, including this house, are you giving up?”

“Poop! Is that why you can’t part with it?”

“Of course.”

“Isn’t there some nice, romantic reason?”

Han Myeong-sik smiled kindly as he wrapped his arms around her neck and wrapped around Claire’s narrow waist.

“What if the reason is that I love you so much that I will never break up with you?”

“That’s enough…”

At the glance at her eldest daughter as she shared her deep kiss, Isabella let out a sigh of excitement as she flinched at her voluptuous body that was already beginning to be trimmed.

✽✽✽✽✽

The mother-daughter rice bowl is still there, but when Claire and Isabella’s situation was sorted out, Myeong-sik Han began the plan to create a women’s volleyball team in earnest.

Since high school would be graduating soon, she was thinking of making a professional or amateur team for the general public.

“The easiest way is to buy a team.”

At a gathering of her existing family, without Claire and Isabella, and Olivia giving her opinion first, Imi Lee shook her head.

“No, that’s not how her brother wants it.”

“What is your brother’s wish?”

When her younger sister, Mi-ri, argued, her best friend, Zheng Ju-a, snapped her fingers.

“To create a new team by gathering players you like while traveling around the country! Right, brother?”

“Are you guys really looking inside me now? I’m afraid, where are you going to buy it?”

“Wahhahahaha!”

All of her family members laughed happily at Myeong-sik Han’s joke. She reported that Anna-eun, the real daughter of married woman sex slave Park Soo-ji, found her laptop while searching for it.

“There’s a professional volleyball league in America!”

Although the United States is the birthplace of volleyball, there were no professional leagues for other ball games due to the popularity of football, baseball, basketball, and hockey.

Even the world’s most popular football professional league was created in 1993 under the name of ‘Major League Soccer (MLS)’, so it is not surprising that there has never been a volleyball professional league.

“Doesn’t that mean we have to change the sport?”
“I know…”
“Now that there is a professional league, what are you worried about?”
“Isn’t basketball better for players than volleyball?”
“What does the player base matter?”
“That’s right, it’s not about making a winning team.”
“You don’t have to enter the pro league.”
“That’s right, volleyball players also play beach volleyball, don’t they?”
“Is beach volleyball more popular in America?”
“Volleyball is perfect!”

The women worry about giving or receiving each other, so Han Myeong-sik only has to decide.

“I need a gym because volleyball is an indoor game, so if there is a suitable team based in Los Angeles, buy it.”

“Are you going to release or fire all the existing players and staff?”

When Han Myeong-sik made a surprised expression at Olivia’s correct guess, the whole family burst into laughter.

“Are you really going to select players yourself while touring the vast United States without tryouts?”

Park Eun-jung’s expression as she implied the question seemed to already know what kind of answer would come out.

“Are you asking if you know everything?”

“How do I know what’s inside that sloppiness?”

“How do you know it’s sloppy!”

The family members burst into laughter again and started discussing what each of them would be responsible for this time.

It’s not the first time Han Myeong-sik has done something out of the blue, and after experiencing the fun of taking on challenges with all the family members in a new field, he now does everything on his own.

✽✽✽✽✽

Sports clubs in the United States are usually operated in the form of corporations that are not affiliated with schools. So, if you have money, you can become a club owner right away.

However, in the case of volleyball, there has been no professional league so far, so most of the players go to university after graduating from high school,

After graduating from university, he went to a country with a professional league or turned to beach volleyball, which was popular and profitable, so there was no club worth buying.

“What is the operating system of the pro league? This is why there is no team.”

Olivia, who was driving, grinned at Myeong-sik Han’s evaluation of the newly launched American volleyball professional league.

“Isn’t that how they operate because there are no clubs that are as good as other sports?”

“Hmm… Could it be that, in the sense that individual players should receive sponsors and make a living on their own?”

“That’s right, it’s unusual to announce the rankings of individual players rather than teams.”

“It has nothing to do with us whether or not the team event is operated like an individual event, so let’s not worry about it.”

“Ah… ! Over there.”

The place Olivia pointed to was a mart in Long Beach, a maritime city south of Los Angeles.

“America is so funny. A player who was a promising player until high school is suddenly working at a mart.”

Olivia shrugged her shoulders when Han Myeong-shik complained as she got out of her car and headed to her mart.

“It is said that the United States is a country of opportunity, but in fact it is a cold-hearted competitive society where winner takes all.

“I know… , As much as the price of success is high, I think the return is also huge.”

“Does it look like him over there?”

Han Myeong-sik turned on her status window and recognized her, and she asked Olivia how did she recognize a woman who only knew her name.

“How did you know?”

“Is he right?”

“Yeah, it’s amazing.”

“What’s amazing, isn’t he the tallest among women?”

“So, are you as good as you?”

“Am I short as a woman?”

“Ah… I see.”

She forgot that Olivia was six feet tall as she made love naked every day.

“However… Aren’t you too fat?”

“You can change your appearance, so it’s better to attack something like that, the important thing is your volleyball skills.”

“Ah… Yes…”

As a woman, she is having such a happy time that Olivia also forgot that Myeongsik Han had changed her biologically male body into a female one.

“Hi, are you Kaylee Miller?”

A blonde-haired female employee who was struggling to sort her things with her super-obese body stared at her with her blue eyes wide open.

“Yes… , What about it?”

“My name is Myungsik Han. This is my partner.”

Seeing Olivia with her amazing beauty and her body saying her name and asking for a handshake, ‘Kaley Miller’ was quite embarrassed.

“What are you doing?”

“Mr. Miller has come to make an offer that might be of interest to her, could she spare some time?”

“Ah… That is… It’s a little difficult because it’s working hours.”

“I will ask the manager about that.”

She just wanted to take a break, but since she made time for herself, there was no reason to refuse.

Instead of taking a break, Kaylee got off work early and got a nice sports electric car, and was treated to a delicious lunch at a nice restaurant in the city.

“I enjoyed it because you bought it, but… , What kind of proposal are you doing this kind of kindness?”

After accepting the coffee brought by Olivia, who was prettier and more beautiful than her model, Kaylee began to worry about what the hell she was going to suggest.

“She played volleyball through high school, right?”

“Yes.”

“Why did you decide to go to a prestigious university and then quit?”

“Didn’t you come to know everything?”

“Couldn’t you tell me in person in exchange for the meal?”

How many women wouldn’t fall for the sweet talk of an Asian handsome man who goes so well with a stunning beauty like Olivia?

“It’s not really a secret, but there’s nothing I can’t say. She was expelled for spreading false information after reporting the coach’s harsh behavior to the media.”

“Was it a lie?”

“Are you a journalist?”

“No, if I were a reporter, I would have identified myself first.”

“However… Why are you curious about what happened then?”

“Because if it’s not true, I can’t give you an offer.”

She asked to confirm what she already knew, but Kaylee answered confidently without hesitation.

“Of course it’s true, if you find the people who worked out with me and ask them, you’ll know everything.”

“Did you know that the coach conspired with an association official to conspire against Mr. Miller?”

“I didn’t know at the time, who would have known that the coach of the high school girls’ volleyball team had such wide feet.”

As if she had already resigned herself to reality, Kaylee only sighed, but her chubby, freckled face didn’t change much.

“I thought you would be angry, but you are calm.”

“It happened because I was stupid. If I had known a little sooner why the kids were hesitating, I would have made the accusation after going to college.”

“You mean you would have accused me anyway.”

“Sure, such rubbish must be banished from the sacred world of sports.”

“Have you ever regretted making the accusation?”

“Not at all. As I said, if I had endured for a year, my life would have been different from now, but I have never regretted it.”

“Okay, then let me make a suggestion.”

“…”

Caylee realized too late that the conversation she had had had been a test of herself.

“Kaley Miller, would you like to join the volleyball team I am creating?”

“Yes? What… What are you going to do?”

Olivia stepped forward and added her explanation for Kaylee, who wondered if she had heard it wrong.

“Boss plans to create a volleyball team based in Los Angeles. I am not aiming for a pro league, but I am making an offer because I want to give opportunities to people with passion like Mr. Miller.”

“Ah… !”

It’s a British accent, so it’s easy to hear, but it’s still an unbelievable suggestion, so Kaylie just opened her mouth and couldn’t answer.

Her body was extremely overweight, so it was not worth evaluating, and her beauty was not attractive at all, but her bright eyes were no less than Olivia next to her, just like her straight thoughts.

“I will tell you the salary and other welfare benefits if you accept the offer.”

“Ah… That… However… , I haven’t exercised for nearly two years now… As you can see my body…”

“Don’t worry about that, you can lose weight and get your performance back with practice.”

“But since I’ve had a lot of trouble controlling my weight since I was in high school, I wonder if it’s possible to exercise again…”

“You mean you want to do it once your weight is controlled?”

The reason why I want to accept the offer, knowing that it is impossible to do something if only my body is so heavy that it is difficult to even go to work, is because my passion for exercise remains.

“Of course… Of course I want to, but…”

“We will not put any other conditions on you, just sign a contract and we will make you a body that can exercise.”

“Ah… !”

How could something like this happen in a movie? It never occurred to me that the other person was a con artist.

To be the target of fraud, you need to have something or something to show off, but to yourself, it was because you had a fat body that didn’t even attract anyone’s attention.

Olivia gave her a warm smile while gently holding her thick hand as she trembled in front of her incredible luck.

“Wouldn’t it be more fun than Mart, even if it meant protecting the bench as a candidate?”

“Huh, I guess I’m not only getting fat, but my thinking has also slowed down. I’ll make a contract. Even if I fell into hell, wouldn’t it be worse than my current life?”

Han Myeong-shik smiled broadly and held out her hand.

“Welcome to being a founding member of the Wild Cats!”
