"otherwise" vs "or else"

[Nessie]

Plesae have a look at this multiple choice question:

Please be quiet, ... I won't tell you the story
a. unless
b. otherwise
c. if not
d. or else
=> I chose d for this, but when I looked up the word "otherwise" in my OALD, here is an example for the word that I found:
Shut the window, otherwise it'll get too cold in here

=> I used to think that "otherwise" can just be used after a full stop. But if so, this multiple choice question must have two correct answers...

Hi Nessie

There seem to be varying opinions about 'otherwise'.
The site below, for example, seems to recommend using a semi-colon in a sentence such as yours:

The Random House and Cambridge dictionaries both state that 'otherwise' can be used as a conjunction, and both give examples using a comma.

So the question has two correct answers?

Haha, I know what you're going to say, Amy => another badly designed exercise from Nessie
