In the English language, the normal order of words in a sentence is: subject + verb + object. The subject is the performer of the action (verb) and the object is the receiver of that action.
In the given sentence, the indirect object "me" is placed before the verb "told", whereas it should be placed after. Hence the sentence requires change and option A is incorrect.
Option C is correct as the sentence follows the normal word order- subject (Eden) + verb (told) + indirect object (me) + direct object (biggest secret).
Option B is incorrect because the words are not in the required order; the adverb "yesterday" has taken place of the subject.
Option D is incorrect because the indirect object "me" is placed before the subject "Eden". It does not follow the correct word order.
