Arthur Hendon
Miles, Hugh, and Arthur Hendon’s father and a baronet. Richard always loved his youngest son, Hugh, the most—even though everyone else recognized Hugh as greedy, selfish, and cruel. Richard forced Miles to leave the family home and serve in the military when Hugh convinces him that Miles intends to run away with his ward, Lady Edith. Richard wants Edith to marry his oldest son, Arthur, but when Arthur dies and Hugh forges a letter saying Miles is dead, Richard allows Hugh to marry Edith. Sir Richard dies a short time later.
