"Why don't you tell me?" Zeus asked him again.
He kept his mouth shut and stared at the young man, he couldn't help but answer it especially since he couldn't prepare a reason for this kind of situation.
He thought that Zeus would not ask the reason why he had disappeared, and he fully thought that he was too busy with work and had no time to elaborate on the reason for his sudden departure.
"Will you answer me or will you keep your mouth shut? We will not leave this room until you answer my question,"
How is he going to answer the question that has no answer? If there was and he knew in himself the answer, there was no other reason for him not to speak.
"I'm waiting, Jacob."
He sighed, "Yes, I'll answer your question. Is that enough for you to stop me from asking?"
"It depends if you can answer my question and if I'm satisfied with what your answer will be to me."
