Actually, the correct answer is A. "I sat between him and her during the sales conference." This sentence correctly uses the pronouns "him" and "her" as the objects of the preposition "between." They are in the objective (accusative) case, which is appropriate in this context. In option B, "Just between you and I, I am not impressed by our new manager," the pronoun "I" should be in the objective case ("me") because it is the object of the preposition "between." In option C, "Be sure to divide all income from the suburban property between he and I," both pronouns should be in the objective case ("him" and "me") because they are the objects of the preposition "between." Finally, in option D, "I hope shee will keep this between she and I," the pronouns "she" and "I" should also be in the objective case ("her" and "me") because they are the objects of the preposition "between." Therefore, A is the correct answer and illustrates the proper use of pronouns.
