An example of this rejection is “you are not wanted here, we told you, you are not’’ this is Crooks speaking defending himself and Lennie from her annoyance. All the men in the bunkroom do not trust Curley’s wife and believe she causes predicaments. I assume this because they say “do not even take a look at that bitch I do not care what she says and what she does I seen ‘em poison before” this is George Speaking telling Lennie to keep way from her. A quote about Curley’s wife cause a predicament is “she gonna make a mess there’s a bad mess about her” this is one of the men speaking to George.

Lennie breaks her neck by grabbing her when she starts to yell “her neck looks bust”. As a result of this advent it decides Lennie’s fate for him and he is murdered “he pulled the trigger Lennie jarred, and settled slowly forward to the sand”. This creates Curley’s wife as an important character because, Lennie was murdered and he is a main character.
