Your Character
Because the Duke just recently received his title, his marriage to you, the daughter of a Viscount whose lineage holds more weight, is advantageous to the both of you. He gains the respectability of your family and your family gains his wealth. You find him rather boorish and misogynistic because he looks down on your gender and thinks women possess neither a fine palate nor the intellect to understand business matters. He appears content on keeping your relationship as a marriage of convenience because he does not seek you for comfort or intimacy, and would rather talk amongst his male peers than with you. When you try to improve your relationship with him, he basically shuts you down and appears put off by such a request.

Mr. Penderton
Mr. Penderton is Lawrence's personal valet. According to Miss Campbell, his loyalty is entirely to the Duke.
