Nick suggests that Gatsby should go away because he understands that Gatsby's obsession with Daisy has caused more harm than good. Despite knowing that Daisy was driving the car that killed Myrtle, Nick believes that Gatsby being with Daisy will only lead to further tragedy and he wants to protect Gatsby from that.
Myrtle Wilson was killed by Jay Gatsby's car, driven by Daisy Buchanan, but it was George Wilson who pulled the trigger, believing Gatsby to be the driver. This event occurs in F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, "The Great Gatsby."
At the end of "The Great Gatsby," Gatsby is shot and killed by George Wilson, who believes Gatsby is responsible for the death of his wife, Myrtle. Gatsby dies alone in his swimming pool, with no one but Nick Carraway present.
All of the characters contribute to Gatsby's death, escpecially Daisy because he loved her and she didn't want to leave Tom for him. The fact that Tom is having an affair with Myrtle contributes to Gatsby's death because if it weren't for the affair, Gatsby would have never been involved with Myrtle's death. Everyone's greedy grabs for the "American Dream" was the cause of Gatsby's death. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- More precisely, when Gatsby and Daisy were driving together in Tom's car, Myrtle came out and waved at them. Daisy decided not to swerve the car away and ended up killing Myrtle (most likely because Myrtle was Tom's mistress). Tom told Wilson, Myrtle's husband, that Gatsby was driving the car, so Wilson decided to go and take revenge by killing Gatsby. Thus, Tom's affair with Myrtle triggered Daisy's hatred for Myrtle which triggered Myrtle's death which triggered Gatsby's own death by the hand of Wilson.
Daisy Buchanan was driving Gatsby's yellow car and hit Myrtle with the side of it. Daisy was driving the 'death car' though she allowed Gatsby to take the blame for the horrific death of Myrtle.
There isn't a character in the Great Gatsby named Jordan Wilson. There are characters who are named Jordan Baker and Myrtle Wilson though.
In "The Great Gatsby," Gatsby tells Tom that Daisy was driving the car when it hit Myrtle. He claims that he was in the passenger seat and that Daisy was behind the wheel. Gatsby does this to protect Daisy and shield her from the consequences of the accident.
Tom Buchanan was also shocked and upset at Myrtle's death in Chapter 7 of The Great Gatsby, although his reaction was more muted compared to George Wilson's. Daisy Buchanan, Myrtle's actual killer, also showed distress at the situation, but her response was more self-centered and focused on protecting herself.
Gatsby tells Tom that Daisy never loved him and that she has always loved Gatsby instead. He confronts Tom about his mistreatment of Daisy and insists that Daisy will leave Tom for Gatsby.
Gatsby stays in West Egg because he is determined to protect Daisy and take responsibility for her actions, even though he is not directly at fault. He believes that leaving would further implicate her and tarnish her reputation. Additionally, Gatsby is deeply infatuated with Daisy and is willing to endure the consequences to remain close to her.
Gatsby knows Jordan Baker through their mutual connection to Daisy Buchanan. Jordan is a friend of Daisy's and is introduced to Gatsby through their social circle. Gatsby is initially intrigued by Jordan because of her association with Daisy.
the myrtle tree repels insects....not sure why it does that though. To make homeade repellent, just crush up the leaves and rub the paste on yourself
Jordan finds Gatsby to be mysterious and intriguing. She is curious about his background and the rumors surrounding him, but also sees him as a enigmatic figure. Jordan is somewhat skeptical of Gatsby's extravagant lifestyle and is aware of his obsession with Daisy.
