Answer:
<u>D. how the way Lady Dedlock presents herself contrasts with how others perceive her</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Interestingly, throughout the story "Bleak House", the character Lady Dedlock is portrayed as someone who is actually different from the way others perceive her.
For example, others perceive her as someone who is not concerned about the world around her. However, later on in the story, it is evident that she is very much concerned; even having a kind of fear and pain of events from her past. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Well, just the fact that the characters are all dressed up for a masquerade party, already adds to the eerie mood. But what really seals the coffin is when Montressor lures Fortunato into the catacombs, and then ties him up. You really get the whole creepo-vibe, when Montressor starts to seal up the "tomb". Hope this helps you a lot.
