@All

I think the given answer 'Ordering' is Correct.

Just think in reverse, what is the antonym for 'Refusing'.

Is it 'OBEYING' ?

No. The best antonyms for Refuse/Refusing are:

=> accept, allow, approve, consent, grant, offer, ok, sanction.

Therefore 'Ordering' is correct.

Kindly give me your suggestions if I'm wrong.

Yes the answer should be refusing, antonym of obey is disobey. Meaning of disobey is to refuse.
