You would call your son a liar, then?

[It is a rhetorical question. He didn't deny it because there was nothing to deny. Frankness takes over, and she does not bother to correct him on the title he chooses for her.]

Do not dance around the truth. It makes me think you have something to hide, and makes me doubt your intentions more.

[Their drinks arrive then, and Daenerys' icy demeanor relaxes some when she gets her hand around the glass of wine. She allows him space while taking a sip, though brief.]

Kylo Ren and Rey have both done much for me. Kylo Ren saved my life, not long after I arrived here.

[Pointedly, she does not revert to the corrected name she was given.]

This information was not told to me under light circumstances. I owe it to them to understand before I cast my judgement. If you do not want to tell me, I cannot force you, but you should know that my trust is notoriously difficult to earn.

[She puts the glass back down and folds her hands in her lap. Truthfully, the bluster is perhaps too easy to fall into without them there -- if they did not return, then she might have been making an enemy without much reason in doing so.

She realizes it too late -- and she is uncertain if she cares.]
