C Correct answer
Explanation

Option C is correct because it uses the precise legal terminology - 'enter into a contract' requires 'consensus ad idem' (meeting of minds on the same thing in the same sense). Option A is incomplete, and Options B and D incorrectly substitute 'consent' for 'contract' and 'quasi contract' respectively. Contract formation requires agreement on the same terms in the same sense.
