The motivations of the characters make no sense, and so frustrating.

What is the end goal for Arobynn to be explaining his lie/manipulation? He lost her trust and money! And why spend that kind of money (3 cases of gold!!) just to brag that he is better? On his protégée, no less! Is this the mastermind known as king of assassin’s?!
Celaena, once you pay for your freedom , stop thinking of the money you gave as yours!!
Also, why is Sam into Celaena? Tell me whyyyy!!!
