It was daisy it was keykey6/26/2023 (Rich men did not and do not serve.) Daisy says with regret that they do not know each other very well after all. She acknowledges this once, after she forgets that he is likely too poor to marry Jordan and that he served as a soldier during WWI. She flirts meaninglessly, she offers him sugared delights, cocktails, laughs about nothing for effect, and generally keeps their relationship light. Their relationship is one-sided, and she keeps Nick about in the longer term because he amuses her. Nick, though from a poorer branch of her family, is still very much family, which is why she allows him into her world. All to keep the wealth in the family, one way or another. Daisy is showing a rare moment of extreme vulnerability and self-awareness in that moment, revealing that she, as a moneyed heiress, is only good for marrying another rich person and acting as a bauble or a trophy for her husband and that her daughter will raised to be the same. She even acknowledges this when she talks to Nick about her daughter, saying that she had hoped that her little girl will only ever be a pretty little fool, implying that this is all she would be good for. Part of this is not her fault it is all that she has ever known. Example: Hello.Įxplanation of our link flairs Join our /r/bookclub Don't forget /new!
