Great Gatsby: Proofread 1/3“It was a strange coincidence,” I said.“But it wasn’t a coincidence at all.”“Why not?”“Gatsby bought that house so that Daisy would be just across the bay.”Then it had not been merely the stars to which he had aspired on that June night. He came alive to me, delivered suddenly from his purposeless splendor.“He wants to know,” continued Jordan, “if you’ll invite Daisy to your house some afternoon and then let him come over.”

Great Gatsby: Proofread 2/3The modesty of the demand shook me. He had waited five years and bought a mansion where he dispensed starlight to casual moths so that he could “come over” some afternoon to a stranger’s garden.“Did I have to know all this before he could ask such a little thing?”“He’s afraid. He’s waited so long. He thought you might be offended. You see he’s a regular tough underneath it all.”Something worried me.“Why didn’t he ask you to arrange the meeting?”“He wanted her to see his house,” she explained. “ And your house is right next door.”“Oh!”

Great Gatsby: Proofread 3/3“I think he half expected her to wander in to one of his parties some night,” went on Jordan, “but she never did. Then, he began to ask people casually if they knew her, and I was the first one he found. It was that night he sent for me at his dance and you should have heard the elaborate way he worked up to it. Of course, I immediately suggested a luncheon in New York and I thought he’d go mad. ‘I don’t want to do anything out of the way!’ he kept saying.”“When I said you were a particular friend of Tom’s he started to abandon the whole idea. He doesn’t know very much about Tom, though he says he’s read a Chicago paper four years just on the chance of catching a glimpse of Daisy’s name.”
