Villain Ch 932. Sleep The Way To The Top
For the next couple of days, life settled into a more manageable routine for Allen. Azura, eager to prove herself and stay useful, accepted Allen's offer to help with some lighter tasks related to the upcoming conference. He asked her to find vendors who specialized in knick-knacks and to provide her opinion on several uniform designs for the staff.
These were tasks she could easily handle remotely, allowing her to feel involved without being physically present all the time.
Allen knew that keeping Azura occupied with tasks she could do from her own home was a strategic move. He appreciated her enthusiasm, but he also understood the practicalities of the situation. Having Azura around for too long could indeed disrupt Emma's study concentration, despite Azura's assurances that she wouldn't bother Emma.
Besides, Azura couldn't simply wander into Allen's room as she pleased, unlike how she could with Emma's room. She had done it once, and Allen had made it clear he didn't appreciate the intrusion. She valued his privacy and the boundaries that came with it.
Despite these boundaries, Allen and Azura found a new way to connect. Rather than spending time together in the real world, they began to interact more frequently in Hell's Gate. This virtual space allowed them to bond in ways that were less intrusive and more convenient for both of them.
The weekend has arrived. Allen arrived at the gym for his usual morning workout. He hadn't seen Sophia in the morning classes today. He wasn't sure if she was avoiding him or if it had something to do with Larissa's Pilates class today. Whatever the reason, he was glad for the respite.
Gerry had been the one to pry the information from Mark while Allen mostly kept quiet and listened. Gerry had a knack for extracting details that others might miss, and Allen appreciated his discretion.
In the middle of a break between sets, Gerry and Allen found Mark by the free weights, chatting with another member.
"So, Mark," Gerry began, leaning casually against the rack of dumbbells. "There is something interesting about Sophia the other day, right? Care to elaborate?"
Mark chuckled, wiping sweat from his brow. "Oh, you mean the new member who's been poking around me and then turning to Allen's motorbikes?"
Allen perked up, intrigued.
Allen frowned, his mind racing. "Why would she do that? It's weird because she's still showing interest in me, trying to find out things about me at the gym."
Jane, who had been listening quietly, spoke up. "Maybe she's trying to leverage some kind of influence or gain information. It's not uncommon for people to use connections in such ways."
Larissa nodded in agreement. "That makes sense. But it's still unsettling. What could she be after?"
Vivian shrugged. "That's the part I don't know. She's always been a bit... unpredictable. But this feels like more than just personal interest."
"Maybe she's planning to sleep her way to the top," Jane chirped in a nonchalant tone.
Those words made the girls giggle.
While Allen leaned back in his seat, his thoughts swirling. "I just don't get it," he said, his voice tinged with frustration. "Why go to these lengths? What could she possibly want?"
Vivian looked thoughtful. "Well, it's possible she's trying to find out more about your life. Maybe she thinks that getting close to someone at the agency will give her an edge."
Jane nodded. "Or she could be trying to get back at you in some way. She can't let you go. She won't let you go."
Larissa reached across the table and squeezed Allen's hand. "Whatever it is, we'll figure it out. Just be careful, okay?"
Allen appreciated the support, but the situation still gnawed at him. "I will. But it's not just about me. If she's trying to get close to someone at the agency, it could affect Vivian too."
"True," Vivian admitted.
