Chapter 169: Embarrassed (1)

"Haven't you?" Tyrion said. 

"No. You went and fell for me without me doing anything. Is there a reason why you are trying to push me into the dressing drawer? I know what you are doing," Penelope said, allowing Tyrion to lift her.

"I am not doing anything," Tyrion said, playing innocent.

"Why do I go out of my way to have Matilda dress me so beautifully for bed, all for you to undress me as soon as you enter?" Penelope asked, her voice no louder than a whisper. 

"I didn't get dressed up for bed to seduce you," said Penelope.

"I know," Tyrion said, his hands skillfully pushing her dress down. "I don't expect you to seduce me to make me happy when we argue."
