I chose C, because I don't think this is a good idea on challenging CFO in terms of business value. On the contrary, setup the meeting to clarify the product backlog and plan for next iteration can clear and get consensus on what had been and will be done.

Incorrect, reason: Product Owner is the watch dog of the product backlog. Only PO can make the changes in the product backlog. If there would have been a option where PM will review backlog with PO, that could be a better option, but not here.
