No, it did not sound promising at all. This was their last chance. I'm afraid I don't know if it succeeded.
[ It would have been nice to get a reassurance, and he thought perhaps if he could find Logan he would, but it is just as likely the future Logan would be gone if that future never existed. So Charles would just have to hope for the best and keep an eye on Trask and anything related to the sentinels from then on. He promised Logan he would find his students, like Scott, and give them the life they needed with or without that certainty. Life did have to carry on, as did the X-Men.
Charles has mixed feelings regarding his best frenemy but he is not surprised to hear that Erik's extreme behavior only became worse with time. Once he allowed himself the 'this one mutant murder is acceptable for the good of all' mindset, it could only go downhill. ]
I can't say I'm an expert on time travel. I think the logical answer is that when they chose to change the future, it created a new timeline. I am from that one. You ... might be from the original. Before Logan went back.
[ Charles is a biologist and a scientist, occasionally an engineer when Hank guides him through it, but a theoretical time traveling expert, no, that is even above his head. He might call it an interesting thought experiment, or he might have, before it happened to him. He sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose, ignoring the shouts and noises rippling around them right then in his head. Too loud. It's not only the motel for him, it's the next several blocks of people. ]
Logan told me I had to find you. And Jean, and Storm. To bring you all together again. There is a possibility I knew Logan all this time, I do occasionally have my secrets.
[ Perhaps he did it for Logan's sake, when he saw him the next time. Charles cannot say now. His eyes slant toward Scott and he observes him carefully, curiously. This future X-Man of his. ]
Tell me about you, Scott. I have yet to meet you and I am interested.
