Answer:

The best answer to the question: In "The Monkey´s Paw", which quote during the conversation about the first wish foreshadows future events, would be: Herbert, the son, says, "Well, I don´t see the money... and I bet I never shall."

Explanation:

"The Monkey´s Paw" is a short story that was written by W. W. Jacobs and which was first published in 1902, in the collection The Lady of the Barge. The story, filled with supernatural events, relates what happens when people try to disturb and mess with fate, and the future. As such, it is filled with foreshadowing events, that give us glimpses of how the story will develop, and will also increase the suspense of the story.

Since foreshadowing is basically a way by which a writer gives his readers small hints and tastes of what will be coming later on, thus feeding the desire of the reader to continue reading, nowhere in The Monkey´s Paw does that become more evident than in the third quote. The reason is that after the first wish, and as things do not happen instantly as expected, Herbert says that he cannot see the money, and he never will, giving us a glimpse that this will be actually true later on, as he will die, thus never actually coming to see how the wishes actually become true.

Herbert, the son, says, "Well, I don't see the money... and I bet I never shall." because Herbert never DOES see the money. His death was the CAUSE of the money.
