The Necklace
What was the catastrophe that changed Loisels’ lives? How?
As soon as they reached home, Matilda got to know that she lost the diamond necklace she had borrowed from Mme Forestier for the ball. Mr Loisel went out to search the necklace but all in vain. It could not be found anywhere. Their lives changed completely since then as they had to buy a new diamond necklace to replace that one. They were bankrupt and indebted. They had to give up all their luxuries. They worked hard for ten years to pay back for the necklace.
