    The story ended in quite a thrilling turn of events. After hearing her husband’s death, Louise Mallard wanted to be alone in the room. Over there instead of grieving, she realized with a joy that she was finally free and no one would ever impose a rule upon her anymore. Finally on her sister’s earnest requests, she came down the stairs with her when she saw someone was opening the door. It was her husband, Brently Mallard, still alive. He was never in an accident. On seeing her husband alive and realized that she was trapped in the marriage again, her poor heart couldn’t take the strain and she died of a heart disease- “of joy that kills.”
