Solution
The correct option is D broken up Option C is the correct answer because if two people break up, it means that they end their relationship. Hence the phrasal verb 'broken up' is the correct answer to the given context.
Options A, B and D are incorrect because 'broke down' means to stop working, 'broken off' means to be broken and separated from something and 'broken away' means to escape from a person, place, or situation.
