Solution
The correct option is B him
If the pronoun is receiving the action, it is called a direct object. Object pronouns are always used when the antecedent is a direct object. Here, the action of worrying is received by the father. The object pronoun for third person singular masculine is "him". Hence, Option B is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect.
