प्रश्न
Imagine what must have happened after Mathilde’s friend discovered that the diamonds were real. Do you think she would return the necklace to Mathilde? Would that make Mathilde happy?

उत्तर
I think Mme. Forestier was a good friend, and she would definitely give the necklace back, especially after realising the sufferings faced by the Loisels for ten years to pay for it. But in these ten years' time, Mathilde has learned the value of things and realised the importance of small things and that she doesn't materials to be happy. But after receiving the necklace back the standard of living of the Loisel's will certainly improve as they no longer needed to live a life of extreme poverty. This would certainly make Mathilde happy.
