Thought it might save her life
In Nectar in a Sieve, the main character goes through different difficulties in life. She is married at a young age. She had trouble bearing sons but when she do, she bears too many sons for their food supply. Next, she loses her sons and her daughter is abandoned by her husband.
I knew my cousin would agonize over the news all night, so I saved her the worry and didn't tell her.
The reason your answer is agonize is because, to agonize is to be distraught while thinking of something, so by saving her the worry her cousin had no reason to agonize the news or situation.
I hope this helps!
