Jordan Baker tells Nick the heartbreaking story of Daisy and Gatsby's young love who was forbidden by his parents because of the difference in their social classes. Daisy was not allowed to be with him because he was not rich enough to properly support himself and being a soldier was not a suitable career title; However, Gatsby wouldn't let that stop him from having the one girl he truly loved. Later in the chapter, Jordan explains all of Gatsby's bold but futile attempts to win back his beloved. Jordan tells Nick that he “half expected her to wander into one of the parties one night” (79). He aimed to use his fortune to win Daisy back by throwing the most extravagant party of all to attract her attention. She also tells Nick that Gatsby doesn't want Jordan to arrange a meeting between him and Daisy because "he wants her to see his house" (79). Even though his love for Daisy is unbearable, ultimately he focuses more on his wealth to seduce her. Gatsby "had waited five years and bought her and her husband a mansion" (78) across the bay in the hopes that she would recognize his efforts and all the money he had gotten and return with him for this sole purpose. In her mind, if Daisy knows how much he's worth, she'll have no reason to reject him for a second.
