The night arrived, Mathilde was a great success. She was prettier than any other woman. When Mathilde got home, she took off her coat before the glass to see herself once more when, suddenly, she cried, "I have—I have—I' ve lost the necklace!"
Her husband Loisel stood up, "What! How? Impossible!"
They looked everywhere, but found nothing. Loisel said to his wife, "We must think about how to replace that necklace. "
The next day, they found a similar(相似的) necklace. They could have it for 36, 000 frances. Loisel had 18, 000 francs, which his father had left him. He finally had the money after borrowing the rest here and there.
Mathilde was afraid that Forestier would open the box when she gave her the necklace. Luckily, she didn't.
After that, the Loisels were going through a hard time. Mathilde washed the dishes and tried her best to save money. Her husband worked every day and night, in hope of making more money. This life lasted ten years. In the end, they had paid off all debts(债务). But Madame became what she once hated: strong and rough.
One Sunday, Mathilde saw Forestier who was still young and beautiful. She went up. "Good-day, dear. " Forestier didn't recognize her, "Madame! I don't know you. You must have mistaken. "
"No. I'm Mathilde Loisel. "
"Oh! How you have changed!"
"Do you remember that necklace you lent me?"
"Yes. Well?"
"I lost it, so we bought another exactly like it and it took us ten years to pay for it. You can understand it was not easy for us, who had nothing. But I'm very glad because we' ve done it. "
Forestier looked at her pitifully, "Why? My necklace was a fake! It cost only 500 francs!"
