C.) is the correct answer.
The colonists did indeed fear that an independent America would not protect them as well as the British Empire did.
The Loyalists also did not believe the rebels had a chance against the Mother Country.
A war between people always makes people fear for their livelihoods.

Hope this helps! (:
