Answer:

B. She is mortified.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Marianne and Elinor see Edward's ring, they both imagine that the hair is from Elinor, and erroneously consider it to be confirmation of his connection to her. What's more, Marianne's hair given to Willoughby, an indication of perpetual love, is come back to her after Willoughby forsakes her.
