"We marry for other reasons." Lord Charles Andrew Howard SR explains.

"Lady Charlotte Augusta Beck is the daughter of a mere Viscount and her grandfather is a social climber man who marries the second daughter of The Earl of Essex who is your great-great uncle as your great-grandmother was his sister who married your great-grandfather, Lord Patrick William Howard." Lord Charles Andrew Howard SR explains.

"Oh yes. You are related. You are second cousins. She is not your equal. " Lord Charles Andrew Howard SR explains.

"The Beck's are social climbers and that is why he married the second daughter of my grand-uncle as the oldest daughter had been married off." Lord Charles Andrew Howard SR explains
