Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

From personal experience you are most likely to agree to something if you are confronted with it in person. When it's through an email or through something else not face to face you're more likely to deny it. You could have been intimidated into doing it, bribed, or simply persuaded but all of those are more effective Irl and in person.
