I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article.

As he walked around the examination room, he came to the teacher's desk, where he saw a list of names with marks for the first day of the examination. The highest possible mark was 30, but next to his name he saw the number 7. The numbers were written in pencil, and the pencil was on the desk. He picked it up, looked around the empty room, and at the door, and them wrote a 2 in front of the 7. Of course, this was not honest, but how many truly honest schoolboys are there? Denry was no worse than most of them. Question: What was Edward Henry's mother like? Options: A: Patient. B: Dishonest. C: Hard-working. D: Kind.
