If B knows it is from A he can decrypt it using A's public key
C

D
A should send his public key with the message

Public-key cryptography, or asymmetric cryptography, is an encryption scheme that uses two mathematically related, but not identical, keys – a public key and a private key. The public key is used to encrypt and the private key is used to decrypt.
