What do M. and Mme Loisel do next?
When M. and mme loisel came home they realized that the necklace was not on the place. They freaked out and tried finding out where she could have lost it. They concluded that it could have been dropped in the cab because if they dropped it on the streets they must have heard the sound of fall but they did not know the cab’s number. Therefore, loisel dressed himself up again and went over the track where they had walked but he did not find anything. They went to the police and the cab offices. He even put an advertisement in the newspapers with offering a reward. He then asked Matilda to write a letter to mme forestier by telling her that she had broken the clasp of the necklace and would get it repaired. This gave them time to find the missing necklace. However, they eventually decided to replace the necklace with a new one.
