wouldn't you like to know

Two people looking at cages with skeletons...
A: If I hadn't had that dagger hidden about me at Mag Dulham, that could've been us.
B: Where did you hide that dagger anyway?
A: Wouldn't you like to know....

I almost understand the meaning. Could it be thought as 'You wouldn't like it if you knew it"?.
