c) “But how much oftener had she seen him at the other door!”
Explanation:
"The Lady and The Tiger" by Frank Stockton narrates the story of a princess and her illegal lover who is just a courtier. According to the kings's custom of giving 'fair' judgement, the young man was made to chose between two doors- one will lead to a tiger who will no doubt instantly kill him, while the other door will reveal a beautiful lady who will be his wife. On the day of the trial, he glanced and sort of ask telepathically which door he should open for he knows for sure that the princess will no doubt know the right door which will be safe for him. This trial of her lover had been of immense interest for the princess to. The quote “But how much oftener had she seen him at the other door!” is evident of her fear of the other door. She fears for him to open the door of the tiger but she despises more the door that leads to the lady, for she doesn't want him to be married to someone else and live happily.
