Answer:

She was referring to her dead husband.

Explanation:

You can see that she was talking about him because she said he could ride well, which is past tense. Also Luka is butler so she wouldn't speak of him in such a lovingly tone, she hated Grigory Smirnov at that time and Toby can't ride himself, we hope. I also recently read this story.

In the given excerpt, Popova referring to her dead husband in this quote. The correct option is C.

What is the excerpt "The Bear" about?

Popova, a lovely widow with grooved cheeks, is bereaved of her deceased husband.

She appears that she was attempting to crush her servant, Luka, an old and pragmatic man, who is attempting to advise her.

He claims she hasn't been heading out. She has isolated herself within the four walls of her home.

He recommends her to marry though since she was young and beautiful, with roses in her cheek.

She looks at her husband's picture and vows, "My love will die with me, only whenever this poor heart ceases to beat." There was some visitor who refuses to meet.

Thus, the correct option is C, as she was recalling her husband.
