Meanwhile, I kept a sharp eye on the VIP changing room, ready for any signs of activity.
In my previous life time, Juniper and the trainer had slipped into the changing room alone, deliberately sidelining me.
However, Hugo was in the mall this time unlike before. So, I couldn’t shake the worry that things would change this time around.
Just then, a young woman in workout gear emerged from that direction, catching my attention.
"How ridiculous! Nowadays, people can’t even leave their drama at the gym!"
"And some of these trainers are so unprofessional. Look, they’re playing games in here while the customers are still around..."
I instantly had a sense of what was going on.
My mother continued her detailed inspection of the gym equipment, her lips pursed as she scrutinized each piece.
"This doesn’t look cheap either..."
I led her forward, step by deliberate step.
Meanwhile, I twisted my neck and tuned my ears to catch any sounds from the VIP changing room.
Then, rhythmic noises began to drift out from inside.
Unable to contain my excitement, I pulled at my mother and said, "I’ve heard the gym’s changing rooms are crucial for cleanliness. Let’s go check it out!"
