D Correct answer
Explanation

Free consent requires absence of coercion, undue influence, fraud, misrepresentation, and mistake. When consent is vitiated by any of these factors, the contract becomes voidable at the option of the aggrieved party. All three options (coercion, undue influence, fraud) are recognized grounds that make consent unfree.
