Evie can sense the hesitation, and she can guess it's out of a desire to ask about Connor, but she knows it's a touchy subject and she won't bring it up if he doesn't, not just now anyway. Perhaps she'll find some way of assuring him Connor is doing well if they engage in any other small talk, but it's clear he intends to get down to business right now so she holds off.

"I hope so," she agrees, taking the offered chip "these people do not bode well for any of us."

The others would likely balk at taking any sort of help from the empire, even to take down a mutual enemy, but Evie doesn't have to tell them where this information came from, or how she got hold of it, they would see the logic of taking out the organisation even if they were at similar purposes to the empire for once.
