"I promise." And it's absolutely one she intends to do better with, "Though in all honesty, I'm quite done with and all this courtship nonsense for now. It's been causing me nothing but headaches and grief."
And even though she knows she's the best bargaining chip they have, so to speak, when it comes to courtship-- Lucy is absolutely too devoted to the Lion to seriously consider anyone else, Peter is too devoted to Narnia, Edmund simply doesn't care for the whole mess a whit-- she's quite tired of feeling as though she needs to put herself on the market for marriage for the sake of the kingdom.
"Surely they'll not be so insistent that I find myself a match for a while after this, yes?"
