Answer: Hidesato did not want to accept all these presents, but as the Dragon King insisted, he could not well refuse.

This can't be right, because it's a run-on sentence! If someone were to say this outloud, it would sound as if someone wasn't "taking their time"!
(b) says: Mrs. Anderson flies to Sweden tomorrow, her plane leaves at 2:00 P.M.
This one looks correct. It has a comma which adds a pause. It also connects both statements made in the sentence.
(c) says: Mrs. Anderson flies to sweden tomorrow, and her plane leaves at 2:00 P.M.
