What does this "might have" mean?
Davos had traded at Eastwatch in his smuggling days. The black brothers made hard enemies but good customers, for a ship with the right cargo. But while he _might have_ taken their coin, he had never forgotten how the Blind Bastard’s head had rolled across the Cobblecat’s deck.

Hi, dear everyone. What does this "might have" mean?
I'm very sure this "might have" doesn't refer to an imaginary/hypothetical situation nor does it refer to "likelihood".
Thank you.
