I am, this is part of Gren's plan to get Ebon on his side in case winning Sapphire over doesn't pan out. Not that he isn't trying to get on her good side either; no reason he can't have both.

They hate each other and he's trying to get on both there good sides at the same time and in the same location. That would be a reason he can't have both. He is effectively sabotaging Sapphire to endear himself to Ebon and sabotaging Ebon to endear himself to Sapphire while both are standing right next to each other.
