Answer:
Godfrey Cass.
Explanation:
In the story "Silas Marner: The Weaver of Raveloe" by George Eliot, the character of Godfrey Cass is physically strong but weak morally. He harbours a secret- his marriage to Molly, an opium addict and their daughter Eppie. He had married Molly Farren when he was young but hid it from his father for he knows he will oppose it. Then, when their child Eppie came, he also hid this from everyone. Only his brother Dunstan knows about it. His fear of people's judgement resulted in the secret live of Molly and Eppie. Then, after Molly's death, he married Nancy Lammeter, his second wife. But by the time he was ready to acknowledge Eppie as his daughter, Eppie had already accepted her adoptive father as her real father and did not want anything with Godfrey.
