TGG - Jonny Gold

Been sick so I am a little behind.  After completing the reading on chapters 1-2 I realized how odd it was to here Tom being so open about his affairs with Myrtle.  Tom is a rich man with a wife.  Myrtle is not nearly as wealthy as he is. He seems proud to be associated with Myrtle.  I wonder if his Wife is aware of his affair.
