Phrase D is an adverbial phrase of manner that modifies the verb; placing it immediately after the main clause gives a clear description of how the action was performed.

Phrase A is a prepositional phrase indicating source or location; it naturally follows to specify the origin or setting related to the action.

Ordering the parts as main clause, manner, source, purpose produces a coherent and grammatically correct sentence; hence Option B is correct.
