Which excerpt from "The Monkey's Paw" most effectively supports the inference that touching the monkey's paw makes Mr. White uneasy?

A "He heard the creaking of the bolt as it came slowly back, and at the same moment he found the monkey's paw, and frantically breathed his third and last wish."

B "His father, smiling shamefacedly at his own credulity, held up the talisman, as his son, with a solemn face, somewhat marred by a wink at his mother, sat down at the piano and struck a few impressive chords."

C "His hand grasped the monkey's paw, and with a little shiver he wiped his hand on his coat and went up to bed."

D "Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. 'I don't know what to wish for, and that's a fact,' he said, slowly."
