Answer:
What
an episode it was! Today, when I think about it I realise how stupid I had been
for the sake of fame. But at that time I was simply jealous of the applause
Loona was getting. I thought of a tiger hunt which could be the only way to get
fame like her.
I didn't waste much time and arranged for the tiger hunt with the help of
the villagers, who were paid for their efforts. Louisa Mebbin accompanied me
for the hunt.
She was my paid companion and a very shrewd lady.
I concentrated on my hunt and when the tiger arrived on the
scene I became very excited and alert. To get an old tiger was also a part of our
plan, so that I didn't have to put in much effort to shoot him. Then finally, I
made my shot and saw that both the tiger and the goat were killed.
Later on, Louisa Mebbin revealed the fact to me that I had actually
killed the goat with the bullet and the tiger had simply died out of heart
failure because of the sound from the rifle. Later, Louisa Mebbin blackmailed
me knowing the fact and said that she would reveal this fact to Loona Bimberton
if I would not fulfil her greed to keep her mouth shut and the reality under
cover. Thus, I had to pay a huge price to outdo a rival.
