Question

Why was Mr. Enfield suspicious of the check that Mr. Hyde tried to give them?

It wasn't for the correct amount of money
He didn't know Mr. Hyde so he didn't know if he could trust him
The check had someone else's name on it who was very well known
He wasn't suspicious

Answer 1

C. The check had someone else's name on it who was very well known

Step-by-step explanation:

This question refers to the famous Robert Louis Stevenson's novel "Strange Case of Dr Jackyll and Mr Hyde".

The excerpt describes event from chapter 1, when Mr Enfield tells the story of a bizzare case of a small, ugly, hideous man (Mr Hyde) trampling little girl. Faced with angry witnesses and forced to make amends, the shrunken man calms the situation with a £100 check.

To Mr Enfield's shock, the check had a name of a very respected and important person (Dr Jackyll) on it. This sets in motion guessings on the strange connection between Dr Jackyll and Mr Hyde.
