Description A wealthy baron and longtime rival to Iris and her twin brother. He's manipulative and cunning—he has a pattern of trapping business associates into bad deals. He's impulsive, and casts people out on a dime. He can behave like a tyrant; at other times, he's gracious and generous. He's difficult to predict. Iris rejected his marriage proposal; he's still secretly wounded. His outward confidence and arrogance mask a deep loneliness and rage. | ||
