She says that the type of promise she made cannot constitute a binding contract and that, furthermore, it was at least implied that he would stop smoking for good.

If there is no proof that this deal was made Bernard cannot legally take the money from Helen. If Helen reported that Bernard took $100, he would be found guilty of stealing because there is no legal documents stating that he is owed this money.
