English term or phrase: if you say so
Contexto: Lopez's frequent reply of "I don't remember" during her testimony at Camargo's trial may have more to do with cultural differences than memory. A day earlier, the witness had answered dozens of questions by saying she could not remember or by repeatedly telling Deputy District Attorney Christopher Darden, "If you say so, sir".

Qual seria a tradução mais sensata para esse termo, de acordo com esse contexto?
