What is the correct preposition, and why?

Hello teachers,

I have a question about choosing prepositions, please.

Q. "Beware of the people who appear to be enthusiastic ____ your success.

A) of

B) with

C) about

Frankly, when I read the sentence, I find them all fit the sentence especially A and B. What do you think?


Thank you
