Juliette had thought of giving away the villa at only double the price she had bought it. – later changes her mind on seeing Gaston and Juliette – quotes a really high price – lower it only a little
Gaston - not interested in buying the villa – initially – changes his mind on meeting Mrs. Al Smith.
Juliette doesn’t harm anybody – does business ethically.
Values - moral standards, rightful, concerned, trustworthy.
Detailed Answer :
Juliette had thought of giving away the villa at only double the price she had bought it But later she changed her mind on seeing Gaston and Jeanne and quoted a price really higher then its actual worth. Gaston too was not interested in buying the villa but eventually changed his mind on meeting Mrs. Al Smith. Juliette didn’t harm as she did business ethically. On the contrary, Gaston was unethical, manipulative, unscrupulous and opportunistic. He first rolls in his villainy and never bothers about social or moral values. Thus, Gaston should have possessed moral standards, righteousness and truth.
