Chapter 178: Rival (1)
"What has become of it? There is always something happening in Lockwood. It seems more likely that it is best to move out of town," said Tyrion.
"Move? Isn’t that too drastic? This matter will be solved just like it was solved years before," Hazel said, not ready to see Tyrion leave. "Trust that your father and others will solve it."
"It isn’t only the murders that push me away from this town. Every day, a new lie is brought up to poke at my wife, or there are people with their expectations of what we should do. Penelope and I have always wanted to travel, so it will happen," Tyrion said.
It was inevitable that Penelope and Tyrion would find themselves a home, or perhaps many, outside of Lockwood.
"We will visit when the time comes. Don’t worry yourself about us leaving when we haven’t decided when. We are done speaking, and I assume there is much for you two to discuss concerning the body found. I must find Teo and Hailey," Tyrion said, excusing himself.
Tyrion placed his hands in his pockets as he walked in search of his siblings. It was quite the twist that a man was found.
’Again with the masks,’ Tyrion thought.
Tyrion had had enough of the games played in town. If not for this case tied to the duchess and duke, he would have taken Penelope and left from the moment they wed.
Tyrion found Teo on the training ground with surprising guests.
"You are coming to the palace a lot these days. Your father won’t be pleased," Tyrion said, sitting down beside Elijah.
"My father is never pleased," Elijah replied. "I enjoy making him angry."
