    The correct answer is A. Mrs. Hale is bothered by the chair and the thought of Mrs. Wright.

    She wanted to sit in a chair, but she suddenly realized what chair it was - it was the chair of Mrs. Wright, where she probably spent most of her days wishing she were free from her husband and her life. Seeing this chair made Mrs. Hale think of the other woman and her tragic life which is why she suddenly grew sad.
