How does major kovaloff believe his nose came to be removed from his face?

In "The Nose" by Gogol, the protagonist wakes up to realize that his nose is gone. Major Kovaloff cannot explain this to himself, and he is extremely confused and embarrased. He eventually reaches the conclusion that the nose must have left his face due to witchcraft, and he attributes this witchcraft to the mother of a girl he knows. He has been flirting with this girl for a while without proposing, and he assumes that this has infuriated the mother. However, when he contacts her, the mother denies any involvement.

it would be b. broad.
