Solution
The correct option is C Unimportant
'Trivial' means of little value or importance.
"huge fines were imposed for trivial offences"
In this context, "At first, the incident seemed to be trivial, giving no hint of the terrible consequences it would lead to", 'trivial' means unimportant. Hence, option C is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the appropriate information.
