The Great Gatsby chapter 7 notes

Gatsby stops throwing parties because he finally has what he want and it’s Daisy. He also seeks privacy. He fires his servants because he doesn’t want gossiping or rumors to go around and the Wolfsheim are sketchy. Gatsby’s reaction to Daisy’s daughter is super sweet towards her. Tom begins the confrontation because he pointed out Gatsby on saying old sport too much and saying he runs a bootleg operation causing Gatsby to lash out. After they head back Myrtle runs out on the road causing them to run her over and killing her. Daisy is Gatsby’s fantasy and it turned out Daisy was driving the car so Gatsby was outside waiting for Daisy to go to sleep but it doesn’t really seem to bother Daisy that she ran over and killed a women.
