Your passage takes place when Mme and M. Eloise try in vain to find the necklace she lost. First they lie to the friend who lent the necklace saying the fastening had broken (tu as brisé la fermeture de sa rivière) and that it had to be fixed before she could give it back. After a week, they lose all hope (Au bout d’une semaine, ils avaient perdu toute espérance).
