“But we heard it,” insisted Daisy, surprising me by opening up again in a flower-like way. “We heard it from three people, so it

must be true.” Of course I knew what they were referring to, but I wasn’t even vaguely engaged. The fact that gossip had published the banns was one of the reasons I had come East. You can't stop going with an old friend on account of rumors, and on the other hand I had no intention of being rumored into marriage.
Daisy’s insistence that the rumor of Nick’s engagement is true despite his denial suggests a conflict between East Egg and West Egg.

A.east egg and west eggB.the upper class and middle classC.jay Gatsby and tom buchanaD. rumor and reality

There is a conflict between rumor and reality in this excerpt.

On one hand, we have the rumor - that Nick became engaged to someone, and everybody heard it was true. However, on the other hand, we have the reality - that he in fact is not engaged, thus the whole story is just a gossip rather than something that actually happened.
