Question
Write what you think about the following thoughts and actions of Mathilde :
Mathilde did not tell her friend about the loss and replacement.
Solution
It was another huge mistake she made. It was her irresponsible action. If she had informed her friend about the loss of the jewellery, further disastrous events would not have happened, and the solution to the situation would have been straightforward.
