And the Viscount is seeing her although he has a wife and two daughters? Ouch.
By the way, if Viscount Campbell despises the Jounes that much, why does he approve the marriage of his daughter?
Maybe he there is more to that marriage than just love?

Heh, the viscount is a bit of a bastard, huh? About time we got a real personality in this story.
A bit? He's a totally bastard -w-!
Indeed, I can at least understand williams fathers logic when he is an ass, but this guy is just ridiculously stuck up.

Looks like that "Miss Violet Grey" is some kind of "escort". Or high-end call girl. However you want to call it.

I'm reading it more as a business transaction at this point and I think with the way the story is emphasizing the decline of old nobles and their shrinking wealth, he wants some new money in the family so he's willing to sell Eleanor even to one not of 'proper' stock so to speak.
