Actually both obeying and refusing maybe correct. If you are the one to order then you are not the one who will obey. So it is also acceptable. But if this is a test in an entrance exam the answer should be refusing.

I think order is correct
e.g. question----->answer similarly order--->obey

According to me, refusing is the correct answer because it is the exact opposite of the word accepting and yet accepting is a synonym of the word obeying. Please let me know if am incorrect.
