The last option is the right answer

Explanation:

(The car wash was not liable because it could not have expected it was taking responsibility for over $850,000 worth of jewelry when it accepted the salesman's vehicle)

The car wash was not informed that jewelry worth such a high value is also present inside the car. It is the responsibility of car owner to check and ensure nothing is present inside
