Nita ordered her servant to bring her cup of tea.
Answer: D
Correct answer: Nita said to her servant, “Bring me a cup of tea.”
Working backwards from indirect to direct: ordered… to bring her a cup of tea unpacks into an imperative addressed to the servant, and her in the report becomes me in Nita's own words. The option omitting the servant loses the person addressed, and the ones keeping her or that leave the report's pronouns in the direct speech.
