In Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado,” the literary device of foreshadowing used when Montresor tells Fortunato is “You were not to be found, and I was fearful of losing a bargain.” Option C is correct.

Foreshadowing is a literary device in which a writer provides an advance hint of future events in the story. Foreshadowingis usually added at the beginning of a story, or a chapter, and, as a result, the reader develop expectations about the upcoming events.
