Summary
Mr. Duke Oliver Richard was precisely one of the types of people who was not attracted to balls, dinner parties, social gatherings, or meeting new people. He usually spent his time sitting in his spacious study at his country house, The Hill View Hall, immersing himself completely in his work. Sometimes he attended the obligatory social events that he had to attend because of his title, sometimes he spent time with his few friends, but he preferred solitude. Oliver led a quiet country life: he managed his estates and needed nothing more.
But then his dear friends began to find brides and settle down, immersing themselves completely in romance and family life, devoting much less time to other matters, such as their regular meetings, and the Duke could not ignore this for long. It was not that he wanted a wife and children, he simply felt obliged to his family to provide his own lineage. But women were a burden to him, and the search for a wife promised to be the most annoying occupation in the world.
