D Correct answer
Explanation

The correct phrase is 'bottle up,' meaning to suppress or contain emotions rather than expressing them. This metaphor comes from bottling liquid - containing it under pressure. The context of hiding anger and resentment makes 'bottle up' the perfect choice. Other particles don't work with 'bottle' here.
