Chapter 865: Lewd Thought
Villain Ch 865. Lewd Thought
Allen frowned, but he was determined not to break his set. He wouldn't glance at her either, refusing to let Sophia's actions distract him from his workout. He continued his reps, focusing on his form and breathing, though Gerry's words echoed in his mind.
"With Mark?" Allen repeated, the frown deepening on his forehead. Mark was a well-known figure at the gym, a coach with the most expensive rates due to his professionalism and numerous achievements. He had successfully coached countless people to reach their fitness goals, whether it was increasing body mass, losing weight, or building muscle.
His knowledge of healthy food and lifestyle was extensive, making him the most sought-after coach in the gym.
Mark's popularity was well-deserved. He was a constant presence at the gym, spending most of his time there, although his coaching sessions were primarily in the afternoon and evening. In the mornings, he dedicated time to his own workouts, maintaining the peak physical condition that made him an inspiration to many.
Allen knew that Mark was a professional through and through. His interactions with gym members were always respectful and focused on fitness goals. Mark was not the type to engage in personal drama or flirtation, especially not within the gym. This knowledge reassured Allen slightly, though it did little to quell the irritation he felt at seeing Sophia's obvious attempt to gain Mark's attention.
Gerry nodded, a similar frown etched on his forehead. "Is she… really wanting to be serious? You know, maybe have a goal or something? Like beat Larissa's booty size?" he guessed.
Allen's concentration wavered at Gerry's words. His brain conjured an unwelcome mental image of Larissa's bare booty, whose job as a fitness instructor had indeed given her a physique that attracted a lot of attention. The vividness of the thought made Allen flinch, and he finally lowered the weights in his hands before finishing his set.
Gerry noticed the unusual interruption and frowned, concerned. "Why didn't you finish your set? Do you feel sick or something?"
Allen glanced at him, irritation and embarrassment coloring his expression. "You just made me imagine something I shouldn't have imagined," he complained, feeling a blush rise to his cheeks.
Gerry almost laughed at Allen's words but decided to hold it in. "Sorry, sorry," he said, raising his hands in a placating gesture. "Didn't mean to mess with your head."
Allen shook his head, trying to clear the unwelcome thoughts. He knew Gerry hadn't meant any harm, but the image had thrown him off. 'Doggy style. I need to try doggy style next time,' he thought. The lewd images came to him again. He could imagine Larissa's soft skin, her toned body and her perfect body curve.
'Oh God… What am I thinking in the middle of this place,' he screamed internally since the gym was definitely not a good place to get horny. He quickly tried to shake them off and took a deep breath, trying to refocus on his workout.
"Seriously, though," Gerry continued, more thoughtfully this time. "What do you think she's up to? I mean, if she's really trying to get serious about her fitness goals, good for her, I guess. But it's hard to believe it's just about that."
Allen shrugged, picking up the weights again, but he felt the weight of Gerry's question. Sophia's intentions were never straightforward, and her sudden interest in Mark and fitness training seemed more like a calculated move than a genuine pursuit.
"Beats me. I don't know what she's thinking about. But I'm not sure it's because she has a fitness goal or something," he said, trying to push the unwelcome thoughts aside and focus on the weights in his hands.
Gerry smiled dryly. "True," he agreed, his voice laced with a hint of sympathy. But then, a teasing grin spread across Gerry's face, his eyes gleaming with mischief. "Maybe she's trying to replace you," he suggested, his tone half-joking but carrying an edge of seriousness.
Allen scoffed, rolling his eyes as he set the weights back down. "Good then," he retorted, a touch of bitterness in his voice. "She's doing me a huge favor."
Gerry raised an eyebrow, intrigued by Allen's reaction. "A huge favor, huh?" he repeated, his tone curious. "You're really that over her? Not even thinking of revenge?"
Allen met Gerry's gaze, his expression resolute. "Yeah, I am. It's been two years, Gerry. I've moved on. She's just… background noise now. And yes, I will get my revenge since she keeps pushing my buttons lately."
Gerry nodded, impressed by Allen's conviction. "Fair enough," he said, his grin softening into a more genuine smile. "But I gotta say, it's kind of satisfying seeing her try so hard and you not giving a damn."
Allen chuckled, a genuine laugh breaking through the tension. "Yeah, it is," he admitted. "But honestly, I don't care what she does. If she wants to play games, let her. I will make her eat her own poison."
Gerry clapped a hand on Allen's shoulder, giving it a reassuring squeeze. "Good for you, man. Is that the reason you arrived earlier than me today? Also, the reason you use this cologne?"
Allen smiled, the tension in his shoulders easing as he completed his set. "I guess," he said, finishing his last rep and carefully putting the weights back. He exhaled a long breath and sat down on the bench, wiping the sweat from his brow with a towel. Turning to Gerry, a thought struck him, and his expression brightened.

"Oh right," Allen began, his tone shifting to something more casual and upbeat. "I want to invite you to a party next month. Make sure you come with your plus one."
Gerry's eyebrows shot up in surprise and curiosity. "Oh, what kind of party?" he asked, leaning in slightly.
"A formal-themed one," Allen replied with a grin, enjoying the shift in conversation. "Just make sure to wear good stuff, okay? I'll tell you the details later," he announced.
