The narrator comments on the contrast in Malétroit's expression and the calm silence he expressed.

We can arrive at this answer because:

For the narrator, Malétroit is an intriguing character, difficult to understand and with many layers, which hide his true intention.
This makes Malétroit a complex, round, and stimulating character.
The narrator has this perception when realizing that the calm silence that Malétroit conveyed was ironic and full of ulterior motives.
That's because his expression wasn't calm and serene, but it was sinic and with a Machiavellian tone.

The narrator has difficulty interpreting Malétroit and this difficulty is what makes him such a difficult character.
