Jerard.

“Susanna's husband.

Yes, Jerard is cheap, but he is a cheap man who does not want to spend, who cannot bear to consume money even if he is not rich. Jerard was impoverished by his ex-wife who left him for another man. When Susanna meets Jerard, Hugo is not yet stable to live with him, Hugo arrives during vacation to visit his father, and Jerard has a room dedicated to him. Jerard would never barter Susanna knowingly or only if obliged (see poker night in the club). Susanna, after the first romantic period, begins to get bored always being alone in the house. Jerard’s work is uneven and there are rivalries and spite in his office that stress Jerard. Jerard’s stress problem is reflected in his sexual appetite by reducing his sex drive.”
