The Necklace was a novel by Lee from the United Kingdom. It was about an innocent and kind-hearted girl, Mathilde, who accidentally won an expensive necklace at a dinner party. However, she was used by a vain rich girl, Khalili, and finally fell into a scam. In order to recover his losses, Mathilde launched a life-and-death struggle with Halili, but it ended in tragedy. The novel profoundly revealed the greed and vanity of human nature, and in this case, kindness and honesty often could not defeat the power of money and interests.
