"Adding wood to the fireplace. You said that it was cold in here," Rafael answered, playing oblivious to what Annalise meant. He knew she was questioning why he was without a shirt, but she would have to be more specific to get a better answer out of him. 

"I mean your shirt, Rafael. Why did you take it off? Are you trying to seduce me so I would lose our earlier bet?" Annalise asked, approaching him with folded arms. "It will not work."

"Then you can look away and go back to putting out the food. While it is cold for you, it is a bit hot for me. You've worked for me before to know that once I am settled in, I take off my shirt to be comfortable. Should I put it back on so you-"

"No," Annalise stopped him. She would not give him the satisfaction of thinking he was getting the best of her just from having his shirt off.
