In this sentence, "further" is being used to indicate a progression in time or a continuation of a topic, which is the correct usage. In option B, "farther" should be used to indicate physical distance. In option C, "farther" is technically correct for physical distance, but "further" can also be used in this context. However, option A is the best choice as it is the only option where "further" is being used correctly.
