The sentence represents or demonstrates a foreshadowing (option B) in the story. Mr. White wished for 200 pounds, the monkey's paw moved (twisted) but the money didn't appear, then his son Herbert <em>bets he'll never see it.  </em>Reading further, we learn that the paw's magic leads to tragic consequences for the people who asks for wishes to it. Herbert dies in a work-related accident and his company offers his family a compensation of 200 pounds, just the amount Mr. White wished for, and the same Herbert doubted he could see: his words were a hint the author gives us of what is to come in the story.
