A woman's greatest dream is to be loved, and the author uses this sentence as the end of the whole story. It is not surprising that Agatha Christie, as a female writer, can reach such a conclusion.
The whole story is based on the love between men and women, interspersed with all kinds of jealousy and hatred in the society, as well as people's greed. The maid eventually paid the price with her life because she was poor and had no principles and bottom lines. Lawyers covet their clients' money in an attempt to defraud them for their own possession. The novelist slandered the rich daughter, and the novelist's daughter tried to settle the slander by illegal means for her mother. The dreamer with no money is jealous of the wealthy daughter's inheritance of the family property, and holds a grudge. The old woman, who regards the necklace as her life, tries to take the pearl necklace of the rich girl as her own. The old woman's maid tried to take revenge after her home was ransacked by the rich daughter's father by business means. Finally, back to the engaged couple, they played a big game from the beginning, which was so big that it was outrageous. The fake marriage really made money, and even committed murder for it. So, can it be understood that it is not for making people love her, but for money. Money, a devilish and angelic object, makes people lose their minds and do evil things.
Another point that shocked me is that there is such a firm love, and after marrying a rich girl, you can continue to play the big game with your ex-fiancee. The rich girl seemed to be better than his original fiancée in every way, and in the end the man insisted on committing murder and self-mutilation with his ex-fiancée. Men are ruthless, women are more ruthless than men.
Finally came to such a conclusion, this is not the interpretation that the author expects the reader to get. The portrayal of the characters is truly terrifying.
