How can he not know. The idea can't even process properly in her mind, it's so incomprehensible that someone could not know about them. But he's not lying, she can see that clearly.
Opening her mouth to respond, she jumps instead as her pocket buzzes suddenly. The phone she extracts from the inside jacket pocket has a cracked screen thanks to one punch or another, but the display is still readable, a line of text that she reads quickly before tapping it away.
"I have to go," she explains, an air of apology in the words. "My team will be here soon."
Reaching back into the pocket, she pulls out a business card with a bent corner and holds it out to him. "Do some research. If, after that, you still wanna talk - this is how to reach me." Her name is written there on one side, Rogue with a phone number below it, and on the other side a stylized X. "But I won't blame you if you don't."
