    Mr. White's decision to take the monkey's paw out of the fire.

    Answer: Option D.

    Explanation:

    "The Monkey's Paw" is a supernatural short story which has been written by the author W. W. Jacobs. The story was first published in England in the book named The Lady of the Barge in 1902.

    In the story, the owner of The Monkey's Paw was given a chance to fulfill three wishes, but the wishes came with an enormous price that the owner of the monkey paw had to pay for interfering with fate. This made this story a supernatural story.
