Her eyebrows raise at that response. It's not the one that she expects to hear, especially the way he speaks and makes it seem like common knowledge all along. Sure, she hasn't exactly asked him where he's been living. She just assumed that he had been assigned a room in the temple as well.

Or, worse, opted to camp outside the door of her room ever since her arrival. She wouldn't put it past him.

"I don't have any other option right now."

If he's hiding something from her, she is not going to be happy. Contradictions or not.
