Solution

The correct option is D Desperation
The correct answer here, in the context of the sentence, is 'Desperation' - making Option C) the correct answer. This is because when one does anything 'out of desperation', it means that they do so having no other options, reluctantly. Options A) and B) would not fit grammatically and Option D) is a new word in itself, that would change the meaning.
