Miss Louisa Mebbin, the paid companion of Mrs Packletide was a very shrewd and crafty lady whose actions were chiefly governed by mercenary motives. She had protective elderly-sister attitude towards money. She was quite unethical professionally as she did not hesitate blackmailing her own client. She converted the tiger killing into her own favour. She knew Mrs. Packletide's weaknesses. She knew where to hit. She threatened Mrs Packletide of revealing the truth about the tiger hunt to Loona Bimberton, which would bring shame and embarrassment to her. So she succeeded in extorting 680 pounds out of Mrs Packletide and bought a cherished weekend- cottage near Darking.

Heya mate
The answer is here

♢ Miss Mebbin came to know that Mrs Packletide had arranged the tiger hunt just to prove herself better than Loona Bimberton.

☆☆ Therefore, Miss Mabbin blackmailed Mrs Packletide to get the weekend cottage to keep her mouth shut about knowing the fact that the tiger had not been killed by her actually and had died due to heart failure.

And , She has also planted tiger lilies in the garden because they were symbolic of how she had managed to get the cottage, that is due to a tiger...
