D. how the way Lady Dedlock presents herself contrasts with how others perceive her
Explanation: 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.
