It was the truth. She saw no reason to lie. There was once a time when she wouldn't have hesitated to rise up against her husband with others. Just as there was a time when she wouldn't have dreamed of betraying him. And if she continued to be perfectly honest with him, she might even admit that she hadn't completely ruled out the possibility that she would work against him in his quest to become the next Dark Lord. If he was successful, she could never run. She would be stuck where she was for the rest of her life. At least Rabastan offered a promise that she and her son wouldn't be harmed. They could leave the country and never look back.
