The Great Gatsby Chapter 3

Abstract- In this Chapter Nick takes Jordan to a party thrown by Gatsby at his mansion. Gatsby is known for throwing great party's at his house and inviting very wealthy important guests. Jordan's friend Lucille is there and she tells them that she heard Gatsby is a German spy that has killed a man. Around midnight they go to see the entertainment and Nick sees a man that he recognizes sitting at a table and its no other that Jay Gatsby himself. He was not drunk and overall kept to himself. Jordan then was called by a butler that Gatsby wanted to talk to her. She came out saying she heard something very great and then they say good bye to him and leave. They then see a car in the ditch noticing a man they saw earlier in the library. Nick takes his friends advice and now is seeing Jordan.
Response-I think Gatsby is a very mysterious character that is hiding something to himself. This chapter was the beginning to start to understand whats going on with him. Jordan also talked to him about something important even though she doesn't say what its about and Nick doesn't find out what it is.
Question- What does Gatsby tell Jordan?
