Main Point Question

Main point question on page 3 question 4 in the Logical Reasoning I book. The question stem ask for, "The Main conclusion drawn in Helen's argument" I answered C, because it seems like the main conclusion. It seemed to sum up Helen's statements in the paragraph; however, the correct answer choice is D. To me, both C and D as if appear as if they could be correct. Can someone explain why D is a better answer than C?

c is wrong because the whole point is that lied when he should have told the truth. Also d is better because it clearly states it in the first sentence which is the conclusion.

Ok, thank you. That makes sense.
