I agree, Option C is the best choice here. The employer-employee relationship typically requires a certain level of cooperation, even if the investigation makes Burton uncomfortable.

Option C seems the most accurate to me. As an employee, Burton likely has a duty to cooperate with an internal investigation, unless it violates his legal rights.
