Answer:

The correct answer is D. Ivan wanted to be alone so he could dispose of the nose.

Explanation:

The reason Ivan felt despair was that he wanted to dispose of the nose. He thinks that the police might find him in unlawful possession of the nose and arrest him. So he wants to get rid of it but since the streets began to be crowded he becomes anxious. With the streets being crowded, someone might spot him and he cannot dispose of the nose.
