In which scenario will the court likely find the contract void on the grounds of mistake?
A) Annette bought a suit thinking she would be invited back for a second interview. She wasn't, and now wants to return the suit on the basis of mistake.
B) Ms. Hunt bought some property erroneously thinking that the province was planning to put a highway nearby, even though the seller had never made any such suggestion. She wants out of the contract.

D) Mr. Armstrong accepted an offer by Sidhu, who was selling a "computer program," but learned that they had different understandings of what program was meant. The court cannot say that one interpretation is better than the other.
