Answer:

Curley's wife suspected that Curley was the source of Lennie's bruises. But even though she knew that, she did not seem angry with him because she was waiting for her chance to set Lennie up for her own cause.

Explanation:

John Steinbeck's "Of Mice And Men" follows two workers George and Lennie in their life looking and moving from one working house to another. The story follows the two men, and how the Great Depression has been a disastrous life for everyone, especially the manual workers.

Lennie may be huge, but he is child-like, in that he has some disability. So, George acts as the 'protector' of the huge man. And Curley's wife took advantage of that. So, she would flirt with Lennie which made Lennie feel loved, wanted, and important. When Lennie got the bruises in his hand from fighting Curley, she did not say anything or even get angry. She knows that it wasn't a<em> "machine"</em> that gave the bruises, but she still chose to stay mum, continuing to flirt with Lennie all the while. This was done so that she will get her chance to set Lennie up, a weapon against her husband.
