"What do you want, Mother?"
Melia questioned directly.
Hearing that question, Ambrosia just smiled,
"There is nothing in particular that I want…" Then, her red eyes turned towards Nux and she questioned,
"I only want an honest answer.
You already knew I was eavesdropping on your conversation, didn't you?"
Nux narrowed his eyes, Ambrosia, however, just smiled at Nux as she waited for the answer.
"I did."
In the end, Nux just answered honestly.
He could have lied, however, for some reason, he felt like Ambrosia would be able to see through all his lies, and lying here would only affect his relationship with her.
They needed her help, so going against her seemed foolish. Also, if Ambrosia wanted, she could easily learn everything about him, there was no point in hiding things from her. It would be better to give her an impression of an honest person who has nothing to hide rather than someone who has many secrets.
