Solution

The correct option is A Counsel him about his personal problem, provided he is willing to share it with you.
You must call him personally and ask him if he would want to share his problem with you. If he does, you must counsel him about it. In case he does not he is well within his right to do so. In such a case, you must patiently tell him that his work is getting hampered so he must try to resolve the conflict as soon as he can.
