What do you think is very important? Is it yourself or someone else?
No need to answer, because it's not something you should talk about with other people. Trying to cover the truth with a lie, didn't everyone do that all along. As if he was just someone who didn't care about anything, then acted as if nothing happened.
It is like that, life is like a battlefield, and if you want to live you have to fight no matter what. Like Frey, he had to endure all her troubles. Trying to act like everything was no big deal because he still had to live.
Perhaps this was punishment for him who had killed Caroline, becoming her mother's puppet without being able to fight back.
