"I only acted to save my sister, Brynjolf.  You would have done the same.  You threatened her," said Torene calmly. She paused, letting that sink in. Then in a light voice she asked, "Do you not still do as Maven tells you, Brynjolf?  Or do you go up against her, as well?  Think you that she does not have ties to the most powerful Coven in Skyrim?  She has her fingers in many, many pies.  Mannimarco threatens the Empire.  Maven needs the Empire.  Perhaps it would be well for you to ask her what she wills, before you decide to kill me and spurn our request.  Think of the glory that might be yours--and the riches--if you should aid us and we succeed.  The Thieves Guild could reach a height--almost a respectability--it has never known." She used her most pursuasive voice.

(Sorry that took so long--trying to think what to say!)
