    E issue,went,treasure. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I think my friend had a 'suspicion',that I had 'come' in search of a hidden 'treasure'. Suspicion is a 'noun' which means a doubt, disbelief or distrust.Doubtful,distrustful and also the word issue cannot be used here.(We cannot have an issue 'on' someone,we can have a 'doubt' on someone) As the sentence is in past tense,therefore the word 'come' stands grammatically correct with 'had'.
