The interesting thing is that Imogen is perfectly able to find out for herself when someone is lying, at times whether she wants to or not, but made no attempt to listen for Laudna’s real intentions.
So the question is whether she’s more afraid of proving herself right, or proving herself wrong. Because if she believes Laudna lied to her she doesn’t have to think about the consequences for herself or for Laudna. She can be as angry as she wants. It was Laudna who played a trick on her, not her who stood by and did nothing while her closest friend begged for help.
