Pramudya Antaguna realized the shock that Abhimanyu and Sri Asih had hidden well. And he is happy to know that. Thus, he let the two of them sink into their thoughts.
Whatever conclusions they could come up with, for Pramudya, it would all end in the same thing, win-win for him in his untouchable plans.
If it turns out that Abhimanyu and his wife—let's say, be pleased with what he just said, then that would be good for Pramudya because then, Abhimanyu might become negligent or let his guard down.
And if it turns out that this makes them wonder, even more, they become even more worried, that's even better for Pramudya. He really liked that, liking someone who was ensnared by his thoughts due to excessive worry and fear. The game controls the minds of the participants, and Pramudya is the mastermind.
Isn't this all so much fun?
"Well," said Pramudya, "looks like it's time for us to have lunch."
