Option 3 : C

The given sentence is a type 2 condition. The error lies in part (C), use "would never miss" instead of "would have never missed".

This statement is of type 2 conditional which refers to a hypothetical situation and its probable result.
In such a case, we use (modal - should/could/would... +verb) in the main clause and the simple past tense in plural form in the subordinate clause (hypothetical part/ if clause).

How to identify TYPE 2 conditional sentences? 

Handy tip – Statement shows a hypothetical /unlikely situation and it’s probable results. It’s not the actual situation.
Structure – subordinate clause(hypothetical part/ if clause) –  Simple past (plural)
The main clause – should/could/would.... +verb1
