Decision to not speak on confidential matters

I'm looking for a word:

I discussed certain confidential matters with my client. She relied on my __ in not speaking of them.

There's a word specifically for this situation, better than "restraint" and essentially opposite to "openness".


Discretion is probably what you are looking for here (meaning 2, or meaning 1 here).


You could use discretion here:

discretion

: the quality of having or showing discernment or good judgment : the quality of being discreet

  • She relied on my confidence in not speaking of them.
  • She relied on my discretion in not speaking of them.
