About
Jonathan Worthing was the only child of Edward and Louise Worthing, and as such he was raised with an extremely sense of self importance. His father died when he was twenty, and he found himself in possession of a title, a considerably large fortune and a beautiful estate. To add to that estate, he married the beautiful Miss Prewitt in 1793. Anastasia soon gave birth to their first child, Clementine, and though he was saddened she had not been a boy the child was healthy and beautiful, and it boded well for future children. He showered the young girl with gifts and attention, things that would eventually fade away as it became apparent that, after several miscarriages, Anastasia might not bear any more children.
Already a man with a reputation for unpredictable moods, though capable of being perfectly charming when needed, the Earl's volatile temper worsened considerably over the coming years. The day that he struck his daughter across the face was the last straw for his wife, who dismissed Clementine's governess and had the young girl sent away to a seminary a few miles outside of the city. Since then he and his wife have spent little time together, him preferring the company of his friends in various clubs across Bath and her preferring the company of her own friends in her sitting room. His daughter returned to Bathampton in 1810, at which point he began to give thought to marriage. His suggestions were met with derision and outright disgust from his wife, who informed him that she would be taking Clementine to London to make her debut. He did not argue, for fear of agitating his currently heavily-pregnant wife.
