“And he did not want to be mistrusted now.” – Who is referred to as ‘he’ here? Whose trust did he want to win? Why did he not want to be mistrusted? Class 12 | English (Thank You Maam) 6 Marks
Ans:
Roger is referred to as ‘he’ here.
Roger wanted to win Mrs Luella Bates Washington Jones’ trust.
The brief encounter with Mrs Jones changed Roger’s life completely. He understood that achieving something through hard work and labour is much more satisfying than obtaining it by adopting illegal means. Mrs Jones had confronted similar situations in her life and therefore she realised that Roger was not a born thief. So, she bestowed all her love and affection upon Roger and taught him the difference between right and wrong. She trusted Roger and left her purse on the day-bed giving Roger enough time and opportunity to steal the purse and run away. Mrs Jones’ generosity and blind faith in Roger moved him and instead of running away with the purse, Roger sat on the far end side of the room where she could easily see him if she wanted to as he did not want to be mistrusted.
