The reason i bold and increased the size was to show its possessive, as you correctly noted.

But as discussed, I eliminated option A and option C because they use SHE, which is trying to refer to BOLDED+ENLARGED POSSESSIVE NOUN , and this is wrong.

The possessive bolded part can opnly be referred using a possessive pronoun such as HER.

Advice: Whenever you see Possessive Noun, DO CHECK for its pronoun. I have seen few questions(probably high difficulty level) in which they refer a Possessive noun using a non-possessive pronoun, and that's wrong.

Thanks

One question here...is 'her' compatible with 'Phyllis Wheatley's'? There seems to be some mistake with the original sentence construction.

Please help...

Thanks
