Jean finds herself chewing on her bottom lip as she listens to the professor. She's glad to have him here- to have him back in her life like this and yet, it's a little... strange to know that he's not the same 'version', if you will, that she first met when finding herself here.
But he's still the professor, still the one she seeks comfort in telepathically and who can tame her restless mind when she feels overwhelmed with everything and everyone around her... that much hasn't changed and would never change... she hopes.
It's when he gently touches her mind with his own that she allows her gaze to wander for a moment, pinpointing just where exactly in time he had come from... and it seems to be her past. Granted, it's not by much and not anything concerning years apart from where she was pulled out of. But... it means that he hasn't yet seen the things she's capable of when letting go, as he'll eventually ask her to.
There's a brief moment of hesitation that comes over her before she flicks her gaze back to Charles and allows her thoughts to gently slip into his.
El Sabah Nur... I killed him.
Even as she says this to him with her mind, she allows the images- her memories concerning the moment in question to gently push their way into Charles' mind, letting him see what she's experienced and what will eventually come to pass from the point in time that he's from. The glowing burn of fire flowing off her as 'Apocalypse' himself is blown apart with her power, the others assisting her with keeping him pinned down so that she can stop him... so that she can kill him.
There's a look that Jean gives as she allows those thoughts to slip into the professor's mind, seeming concerned almost with what he might think, even if he's the one who asks her to let go and stop him by any means necessary; she doesn't want to concern him.

I had to... to save you and everyone else.
