Hannibal watched as she listened. He could feel her attitude changing. His gamble seems to have gone in his favor for the time being. There was a dark glint in his eyes when she named his ally. "His price is fair for his assistance. However, I know what his hidden card is and he thinks I am unaware. I intend to offer this card more than what he demands. The card is more powerful than that clever weasel. I do hope he gives me a reason to end him one day." He said as a hint to her that he did not fully take Littlefinger at his word.

Hannibal found that smile to be quite attractive on Margaery. At her question he chuckled. "I would have simply waited until I completed my plan to see which houses still had something to offer. Although, it could have been quite the lonely life for me. I do not think there is another woman in the seven kingdoms to match you My Lady." He said as a genuine complement. He even raised his cup to her before drinking.
