A Correct answer
Explanation

The question asks to identify the word that doesn't belong. 'Possess', 'Cherish', and 'Retain' all relate to holding onto or keeping something - they convey attachment or ownership. 'Repudiate' means to reject, refuse to accept, or disown - the opposite of the other three words. It is the only word that means to reject or let go rather than to keep or hold.
