It looks as the three hosts are on the same subnet. In this case you cannot use "static routes" because any route - static or else - just defines a way to get from one subnet to another, not to get somewhere on the same subnet.
You may want to define a "proxy" server, but you will have to install additional software (which one depends on which protocols you want to be affected by the proxy) on at least the B-server where you want to route the traffic through.
Another possibility is to put the systems on different subnets: A goes to one subnet, C goes to another subnet and B has one interface in in both these networks AND has "IP-forwarding" enabled. This way you can enforce all packets between A and C to go through B and - using a firewall software, you can even apply additional rules for which packets to allow and which to drop (forbid).
I hope this helps.

tc-route
Route classifier in tc(8) Linux Route classifier in tc(8)
NAME
route - route traffic control filter
SYNOPSIS
tc filter ... route [ from REALM | fromif TAG ] [ to REALM ] [ classid CLASSID ] [ action ACTION_SPEC ]
DESCRIPTION
Match packets based on routing table entries. This filter centers around the possibility to assign a realm to routing table entries. For
any packet to be classified by this filter, a routing table lookup is performed and the returned realm is used to decide on whether the
packet is a match or not.
OPTIONS
action ACTION_SPEC
Apply an action from the generic actions framework on matching packets.
classid CLASSID
Push matching packets into the class identified by CLASSID.
from REALM
fromif TAG
Perform source route lookups. TAG is the name of an interface which must be present on the system at the time of tc invocation.
to REALM
Match if normal (i.e., destination) routing returns the given REALM.
EXAMPLES
Consider the subnet 192.168.2.0/24 being attached to eth0:
ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 realm 2
The following route filter will then match packets from that subnet:
tc filter add ... route from 2 classid 1:2
and pass packets on to class 1:2.
NOTES
Due to implementation details, realm values must be in a range from 0 to 255, inclusive. Alternatively, a verbose name defined in
/etc/iproute2/rt_realms may be given instead.
