Chapter 1233: Plotting’s More My Thing Chapter 1233: Plotting’s More My Thing Villain Ch 1233.

Plotting’s More My Thing “Not really,” Sophia countered, flipping her hair over her shoulder.

“I mean, look at you.

Sitting here like you own the place.

How could anyone not be curious?” Elio let out a soft laugh, drawing her attention.

“You’re good at deflecting, I’ll give you that.” Sophia shifted her focus to him, her smile unwavering.

“It’s not deflection if it’s the truth.” “Truth?” Elio asked, raising an eyebrow.

“You just happened to find us so fascinating that you had to come over and say hi?” “Exactly,” Sophia said, refusing to waver.

“I thought it’d be rude not to.” Elio shrugged, his posture still annoyingly relaxed.

“Believe what you want.” Sophia tilted her head, narrowing her eyes slightly.

“Oh, I do.

But let’s be real, Elio.

You didn’t just ‘happen’ to show up here with these two,” she gestured toward Tommy and Theodore, “and Allen.

What’s your play here?” Allen leaned back against the wall, his smirk never fading.

“I don’t need a play.

Unlike some people, I don’t need to orchestrate everything to feel important.” Sophia’s jaw tightened, but she quickly masked it with a laugh.

“Orchestrate?

That’s rich coming from you.

Isn’t plotting your thing?” Tommy interjected with a chuckle, his arms crossed.

“Plotting’s more my thing, actually.

But I’m flattered you think so highly of us.” Sophia’s eyes flicked to him, her smile sharpening.

“I wouldn’t call it ‘thinking highly.’ More like… keeping my guard up.

You can’t be too careful, after all.” Theodore smirked, chiming in.

“You do seem a bit… on edge.

Is it us?

Or just the company?” Sophia’s lips twitched, but she didn’t let them see her falter.

“Neither.

I’m just not a fan of surprises.” Gilbert, not one to stay quiet for long, grinned wider.

“Funny.

You didn’t seem to mind surprises when you were causing them in Hell’s Gate.” Sophia’s eyes flashed, but her voice remained calm.

“Causing surprises and handling them are two different things, Gilbert.

You’d know that if you ever stepped out of the sidelines.” “Sidelines?” Gilbert said, feigning offense.

“I was plenty involved-just not in your particular brand of chaos.” Sophia crossed her arms, leaning slightly forward.

“And yet, here you are.

Watching from the sidelines again.

Tell me, Gilbert, do you ever make a move yourself?

Or do you just wait for others to take the lead?” Gilbert’s grin widened, his relaxed stance not faltering under her jab.

“I make moves when they matter.

But I’ve found it’s more entertaining to watch people like you burn through all your energy first.” Before Sophia could retort, Theodore, who had been observing the conversation with a faint smirk, decided to shift the dynamics.

His sharp eyes flicked to the petite brunette standing just behind Sophia, her friend who had been quietly watching the exchange with a mix of curiosity and caution.

“And who’s this?” Theodore said smoothly, stepping slightly forward and giving Sophia’s friend a polite nod.

“We haven’t been introduced.” Sophia’s friend blinked, startled by the sudden attention.

“Oh, uh…” “Sophia’s shadow?” Tommy interjected with a grin, stepping up beside Theodore.

“Or maybe her coach, standing there so composed while she takes on the world.” Theodore nudged Tommy.

“You shouldn’t call beauty a shadow.” The brunette’s cheeks flushed, a nervous laugh escaping her lips.

“No, nothing like that.

I’m just… a friend.” “Well, you’re doing a great job,” Theodore said, his tone warm but practiced.

He extended a hand toward her.

“Theodore.

Or Mastercraft if you’re into the whole Hell’s Gate thing.” Sophia’s friend hesitated for a moment, glancing at Sophia as if seeking permission.

But when Sophia didn’t respond quickly enough, the brunette reached out and shook his hand.

“Lila,” she said, her voice softer than before.

“And no, I don’t really play.” “A shame,” Tommy said, his grin widening.

“We could use more people with your kind of presence.

I’m Tommy, by the way.

Or Red_King.

But you probably don’t want to hear us talk about our gamer tags all day.” Lila’s smile grew, and she laughed lightly.

“It’s okay.

It’s nice to meet you both.” Sophia’s smile tightened as she watched the exchange.

‘What are they doing?’ she thought, her grip tightening on the water bottle in her hand.

They hadn’t even waited for her to introduce Lila.

And Lila, of course, looked delighted by the sudden attention, her earlier hesitance melting into a genuine smile as she chatted with the two.

“Lila,” Theodore said, his tone as smooth as ever.

“That’s a lovely name.

So, do you come here often with Sophia?” “Sometimes,” Lila said, glancing at Sophia before quickly adding, “but not for anything serious.

I just tag along when I’m free.” “Tagging along,” Tommy said with a teasing smirk.

“Sounds like you’re the supportive type.

That’s rare these days.” Lila laughed again, a bit more at ease now.

“I try.” Sophia finally spoke, her voice cutting through the light banter.

“Lila’s more than supportive,” she said, her tone sharp but still laced with a forced politeness.

“She’s one of the most hardworking people I know.” “Ah, I see,” Theodore said, glancing at Sophia with an amused expression.

“So, she’s your moral support?” “Something like that,” Sophia replied quickly, her tone firm.

She straightened, stepping slightly closer to Lila as if to reassert control of the situation.

“But we’re here for fitness, not introductions.” “Fitness and drama, it seems,” Tommy quipped, his grin unwavering.

“But hey, we’re just getting to know each other.

No harm in that, right?” Sophia’s lips pressed into a thin line, but she forced a smile.

“Of course not.

Lila’s just not used to this… kind of attention.” “Maybe she should be,” Theodore said, his voice smooth as silk.

“She’s got a charm that stands out.” Lila’s face flushed deeper, but her smile didn’t fade.

“Oh, um… thank you.

That’s really nice of you to say.” Sophia’s irritation flared as she watched the subtle yet deliberate way Theodore and Tommy engaged Lila.

It wasn’t just casual small talk.

And Lila, for all her sweetness, was eating it up.

Sophia took a step forward, placing a hand lightly on Lila’s shoulder.

“Well, this has been fun,” she said, her tone a touch too sweet.

“But we should probably get going.

Don’t want to keep you all from your… catch-up session with Allen.” CREATORS’ THOUGHTS UnholyGod Your gift is the motivation for my creation.
