 Your choice:
A: 7 NT - You can count 13 tricks on your fingers (if you have enough fingers!): five Spades, two Hearts (your partner has shown the ♥K in addition to the ♠Q), two Diamonds and four Clubs.

Be sure to bid 7NT rather than 7♠ in case there's a defensive ruff in the offing.

Your partner's hand:
♠ K Q 4 3
♥ A K 2
♦ A 8 4 3
♣ A 2

You've found the perfect contract after some perfect bidding.
