The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is (D): Abrupt
"Laconic," "succinct," "terse," "brief," and "concise" all refer to a style of speaking or writing that is clear and to the point, often with minimal words. "Abrupt," however, implies a suddenness or unexpectedness in manner, which does not align with the idea of being concise or succinct.
