My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 718

Although he was a duke and he received the most honorable greeting anywhere and anytime and it never happened that he stood while others were seated. But...

Ernest was his future brother-in-law.

He had to respect and please Ernest.

After Ernest and Hector appeared, the audience were so excited and curious that they paid full attention to them.

When they found Hector who was always in a leading position stood beside Ernest without any unhappiness, they were more curious.

There must be a wonderful play today.

They wondered how Ernest would test Duke Hector.

They waited in excitement and anxiety. However, after quite a few minutes, Ernest did nothing. Nor did he say anything.

He just sat there elegantly and drank tea slowly.

His look was indifferent. He ignored everything around him as if he saw nothing.

Hector stood still. Soon his feet were tired.

He was confused why the test hadn't started yet.

He hesitated and then said politely to Ernest,

"Bro, I'm ready for the test."

He said confidently.

"Florence, you're so lucky. You'll be the luckiest woman in the nation after marrying Duke Hector."

Seated opposite the table, Bonnie said so and stared at Florene, full of envy.

Florence cracked the melon seeds and a playful smile appeared on the corners of her lips.

Idiot Hector. You would soon know how you died.

Long after Hector finished his words, Ernest slowly put down the teacup and glanced at him as a reward.

He opened his thin lips a little, saying,

"Tell us your understanding of the relationship between the husband and the wife."

His understanding?

This question was within Hector's expectation. He had carefully prepared for it.

He smiled proudly, and said loudly,

"If a couple wanna achieve a high happiness index in their marriage, they'd better respect each other, love each other and care for each other. Caring for each other means the husband needs to treat his wife as his family, and never betray her. Loving each other also matters. The husband should devote himself only to his wife. The husband should adore, love her and make her the happiest in the world."

He answered the question loudly in the yard and it was the only voice in the yard.

The crowds who gathered to watch the fun stared at him. They were astonished and couldn't believe it was Hector who said these words.

Men should love, respect and care for their wives?

They had never even heard of it in Raflad, okay?

He was insane. He must be insane.

"If Duke Hector really thinks so, I think he is more handsome than before."

"I feel the same way…"

Among the crowds, some women whispered.

In the past 3 days, Hector gave high payment to collect information about equality between men and women. Quite a lot of women participated in the investigation and they were influenced. Even some women who didn't participate in the investigation, they paid much attention to it as well.

Their inherent thinking was shocked, but they still thought it was unbelievable. So it hadn't totally shaken their traditional idea.

But now Hector said so in public, which seemed to spread seeds into their hearts.
