Verified by Toppr

According to general rule, a comma must be used after an introductory clause that's followed by the main clause. Thus, option C is correct.
Option A is incorrect because the usage of comma after 'Refusing' is incorrect in this context.
Options B and D: A comma indicates a pause; using several commas in a sentence disturbs its intended meaning.
Thus, options B and D are incorrect.
