At the end of the chrysanthemums, what does the stranger do that makes elisa sad

At the end of "The Chrysanthemums," Elisa realizes that the man was not interested in her chrysantemums at all.

Also, she realizes now that what was her great escape is now in fact another situation in which she is trapped and misunderstood.
