B. Hermia followed by Helena

Explanation:

The play "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare, set in Athens, revolves around the upcoming wedding of Theseus, Duke of Athens and Hippolyta, the Amazonian Queen. The whole events that led up to the main day of the wedding constitutes the whole play.

The given lines "I frown up him, yet he loves me still" was said by Hermia to which Helena replies "O that your frowns would teach my smiles such skill!" They were discussing about Demetrius falling in love with Hermia who did not love him. She loved a man named Lysander and Helena loves Demetrius. This complicated love story will be the subplot of the whole play.
