The Tale of the Golden Apple - (2)

Zeus gave me an awkward smile as he nudged the golden apple toward me, but I deliberately turned my head away.
I was annoyed at his attempt to pass the responsibility onto me.

“You seem troubled by this yourself.”
“Ahem. Borrowing wisdom from another god is tricky when my own daughter, the goddess of wisdom, is one of the contenders for this apple.”

So, he wanted my help as the god of fairness?
He must have thought that my judgment would ease the tension among the three goddesses.
