mitigate her damages

Explanation:

Mitigation of damages is a concept in the law of contract requiring a victim of a breach of contract to take action to minimize or avoid losses. It means the victim must act and take advantage of the opportunities accorded to them by the law of contract.

Velma and Gordon have a contract in force. Contracts are legally binding.  Velma has incurred damages as a result of Gordon breaching the contract. Velma should take legal action against Gordon. If Velma does not take legal action, she would suffer all the losses.  

If Velma sues Gordon in a court of law, the courts will compel Gordon to fulfill his obligations in the contract. The courts may also compel Gordon to compensate Velma for losses incurred as a result of him breaching the contract. The right to mitigate is protected by law.
