Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation:Madame Forestier doesn’t recognize Mathilde because she’s changed so much since she last saw her; and there’s a very good reason for that. After the unfortunate incident with the lost necklace, Mathilde’s husband was forced to take out a series of crippling loans to buy a replacement.
Detailed explanation-2: -Matilda accused Mme Forestier for her pitiful plight because it was her diamond necklace that had made them live a miserable life for ten years. No, Mme Forestier was not at all responsible for it as she had helped matilda at the time of her need.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mathilde says that the change was on her account and explains to her the long saga of losing the necklace, replacing it, and working for ten years to repay the debts. At the end of her story, Madame Forestier clasps her hands and tells Mathilde the original necklace was just costume jewelry and not worth anything.
Detailed explanation-4: -Later, in the end, when Matilda tells Mme Forestier how much trouble she had to go through because of the diamond necklace, Mme Forestier felt very sorry and told her the truth that the necklace was fake. She could have said that the necklace was real but she chose to tell her a truth.
