Replacing a sentence

[Huda-M]

Hello,

Look at this sentence:

Though Charles agreed, he had no attention of obeying.

Is there any better expression or any idiom which can replace the underlined words? They look too simple like this.....

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hello,

Thanks a lot in advance.

What you mean Huda-M is:

Though Charles agreed, he had no intention of obeying

Intention means that you have the idea to do something, or a course which you want to follow:

Jane broke the plate which she was washing, but her intention was good.
It’s my intention to go to the moon some day.


Attention is to concentrate on something, or to be aware of something.

If you pay attention in school, you will learn a lot.
The noise in the corner caught my attention.

Ummm..... Thankyou Hamburg... But actually I want to ask if there's any OTHER expression or idiom which can REPLACE the underlined words....

[Huda-M]

That mean the same as the underlined words.

[Hamburg]

Although Charles agreed, he was just pulling the wool over their eyes

Is that what you are looking for?

[Huda-M]

Yes!

Thankyou!! :)

[Huda-M]

This must be an idiom!

I love using idioms!
