The sentence that most suggest that Peter learned something unexpected is "D. Peter discovered he could pay for college." The word "discovered" implies that Peter found something he didn't know before, which is consistent with learning something unexpected. The other sentences suggest that Peter had already known or believed he could pay for college.
