[The Great Gatsby] Male God

Chapter 43 Discovery

what sound! ?Jordan and Teddy looked over at the same time.

Nick quickly retreated behind a row of bookshelves. Time was running out, and he could only retreat so much.If he moved again, he would be discovered. He didn't move.

He didn't move, but the invitation card slipped out of his arms.

Oh bad.Nick almost cried out.I stretched out my feet to hook it, but I couldn't bear it.

The library is so big, there will be no thieves, right?Jordan and Teddy peep crankily.

Nick had to stop moving again.

"Aha." Suddenly, an old voice interrupted them.Mr. Owl quickly glanced at Nick, smiled at the two and said, "Please forgive my presumptuousness."

There really was someone, Jordan and Teddy blushed excitedly and said with shame: "Let's come and see. Who are you?"

Mr. Owl slowly got down from the pedal stand, and said jokingly: "I am the 'administrator' here, such decent sir and madam, where are you from?"

The old gentleman cleverly blocked their sight.

Nick bent carefully behind to get the paper.

But oh!Teddy is coming!

The old gentleman made another quick turn and blocked him: "Sir, are you a distinguished guest here?"

"It's just that I'm bored to take a look at it." Teddy fixed his eyes on a gilt cover on the bookshelf, casually grabbed a few pages in his hand, put it back without interest, and whispered regretfully: " I thought it was an interesting place."

If it's not interesting, let's go.Nick, who was staring straight ahead, slandered quietly.

The old man was also watching closely. Teddy moved too exaggeratedly and was very nervous.What's more, there is Jordan, he blocked one, but the other was hard to block.

Jordan is not an immobile puppet.However, she went in the other direction.

The photos on the wall were so attractive that she lifted her footsteps without knowing it.

"Oh my god, who is this?!" Jordan couldn't believe his eyes, this is Gatsby!

In the photo, he is wearing a suit and leather shoes, and the old rich man who is beside him kindly holding his arms looks like he is 70 or [-] years old, but his style must be undoubtedly aristocratic.

Isn't Gatsby a pauper in debt?Where did the rich relatives come from?Jordan was shocked, and couldn't help reaching out his hand to touch it.She thought it was just a dream, but the fingertips felt a little hard when she touched it.

The special touch of the photo is not fake!

Jordan was dumbfounded.

Teddy, who was boasting, was also attracted.He also stared in surprise: "This old gentleman?" He had met Cody once.After thinking carefully for a while, he screamed: "Cody!?"

Cody is a multi-millionaire, and even he only met once at a reception many years ago, and he didn't even have a chance to speak.What's with this picture?Who is he holding on to?So kind as if pulling a son.

The two idiots stared blankly at the photo.Totally forgot that being here was just a coincidence.

Jordan saw that Teddy seemed to know something, and asked, "Do you know who this old gentleman is?"

"He's Cody, with a net worth of at least tens of millions, but I heard he's been dead for a long time. Oh, why is there a photo of him here, and who is the other person?" Teddy couldn't figure it out either.

It was Gatsby.

Now it was Jordan's turn to go crazy.As if she had been slapped, she twisted her face and said, "Damn!"

It is impossible for a multi-millionaire to hold a pauper's arm and smile so kindly.They must be friends.And still very close friends.

Oops, cheated by Gatsby!

He is not a pauper, he is a very rich millionaire.By the way, he must be the great Gatsby, definitely not the same name and surname!

But why would he do this?

A subconscious thought flashed through Jordan's mind: He wanted to get rid of Daisy!

That's right, based on what happened in the past few days, she became more and more sure that Gatsby must want to get rid of Daisy, and he did so because he was afraid that Daisy would pester him.

Now must tell Daisy about this at once!

Jordan, whose gossip soul was burning, immediately turned around and rushed out of the library.

Teddy followed out suspiciously.

As soon as they left, Nick touched his chest in shock, as if his heart had returned to his body.

The old man looked at him congratulatingly.

Nick quickly picked up the invitation card. It fell on the ground just now, and Teddy slightly pressed a corner, and it turned black.

He picked it up, stared at it for a while, gradually curled his fingers together, but reluctantly let go.

He was reluctant to knead it into a ball.He still loves Gatsby in his heart.

Now that Jordan has rushed out, do you want to follow him to have a look?Do you want to help Gatsby out, or stay here and let Gatsby get into trouble?

Nick's heart was beating so wildly that he felt like he was going crazy.

He didn't know that Daisy was downstairs too.But Gatsby was downstairs, and he knew he was coming for him.

After a while, Nick's clenched fingers loosened again. He folded the invitation card neatly and put it in his jacket pocket. He turned around and thanked the old gentleman before walking out.
