Solution

The correct option is D Michael visited our house yesterday.
Option C is correct because the noun (Michael) is a proper noun. Options A and B are incorrect because most proper nouns do not need an article. Option D is also incorrect since the definite article 'the' is only used for proper nouns that are unique in the world and there's no one like them (no such information is given to us thus we assume that Michael is just a normal boy).
