Explanation:
Gatsby’s reaction to Daisy’s child was one of surprise and disappointment. He had idealized Daisy and their past relationship, and the fact that she had a child with her husband, Tom, shattered this illusion for him. However, Gatsby was still deeply in love with Daisy and hoped to rekindle their relationship, even if it meant accepting her child as his own. This complicated dynamic is a central theme in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel “The Great Gatsby.”
