The most accurate response would be:

to reveal the character’s true motivation and most honest feelings.

A soliloquy allows a character to express their innermost thoughts and emotions directly to the audience, often providing deeper insight into their motivations and conflicts, whereas a monologue can simply be a speech to other characters or the audience without as much introspective depth.
