PERFIDY
Answer: B
The word closest in meaning to perfidy is Treachery.
Perfidy means deliberate breach of faith or trust, betrayal of someone who relied on you. It comes from the Latin perfidia, from per fidem, 'through (that is, violating) faith'. Treachery carries exactly that sense of betrayal.
Confidence (trust placed in someone) is close to its opposite, the thing perfidy breaks. Boldness is daring, which has nothing to do with loyalty, and clarify is a verb meaning to make clear, unrelated in sense and not even the same part of speech.
