AHe finds her especially beautiful

BHe feels disappointed and embarrassed

CHe tries to avoid her as much as possible

DHe becomes indifferent and uninterested

Answer:

A. He finds her especially beautiful

Read Explanation:

  • In Act II, after Lady Teazle storms off following their argument, Sir Peter reveals in a soliloquy that he actually finds her most attractive when she is angry.

  • Despite the tension in their marriage, he admires her fiery passion and beauty in those moments. This reflection reveals his complex feelings toward her—while he may be frustrated by her behavior, he is still deeply enamored with her, even when she is at her most irritable.

  • This adds a layer of complexity to their relationship, as Sir Peter both criticizes and adores his wife simultaneously.
