disclose: This is the correct choice. To "divulge" means to "give up" or "give away information". Bruno is confident that Giuseppe won't "reveal" or "disclose" Horatio's secrets. "To disclose" expresses the same meaning as "to divulge".
protect: This is not the best choice. Bruno is telling Badguy that Giuseppe will not "reveal" his secrets, which indicates that the monkey will in fact protect the secrets.
hide: This is not the best choice. Bruno is telling Badguy that Giuseppe will not "reveal" his secrets, which indicates that the monkey will in fact hide the secrets.
forget: This is not the best choice. The verbs "to forget" and "to divulge" express very different meanings.
change: This is not the best choice. The verbs "to change" and "to divulge" express very different meanings.
remember: This is not the best choice. The verbs "to remember" and "to divulge" express very different meanings.

"indicate": Dr. Shvitzenheimer writes that "Philip's blood tests reveal that he is not taking the necessary precautions". In this context, "to reveal" is very close in meaning to "indicate". The doctor is expressing that Philip's tests "showed" or "indicated" that he has not taken the "necessary precautions" in his personal life.
"betray": To "betray" is not close to the meaning of the verb "to reveal" in this context. To "betray someone" is to break their confidence, or to deceive them in some way.
"divulge": In another context, "to reveal" can mean to "divulge". However when we talk about reports, tests, studies, research or statistics we use "reveal" in the same sense as "to show" or "to indicate". The verb "to divulge" is often used to describe important information or secrets, as in the sentence "the spy refused to divulge government secrets."
"declare": Blood tests can "indicate" or "show" results, but they do not "declare" them. The verb "to declare" can be used in the active sense of someone speaking authoritatively: "I won't accept this insubordination!", Bruno declared. It can also be used in the passive sense to express official decisions: "The politician was declared ineligible for the presidency after it was discovered that he wasn't born in the country."
