My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 719

At that moment, another different voice came from the crowd.

It was a voice from a man, which wasn't loud but was full of admiration.

"The duke has a wife. And you have no chance to marry him. It's no use being envy. But you can marry the other men who are willing to love you."

Someone retorted. "Where can we find the second man like Duke Hector across the Raflad?"

It was not only women but also men that were bound by the entrenched belief.

"Men's positions are high because women don't ask them for something and women actually spoiled them. Look at Florence. It is because she asks for something that Duke Hector finally changes."

The man said leisurely, "Perhaps this is love. If I'm in love with a girl, I will be nice to her."

Everyone was in an uproar.

Love?

Women suddenly understood. It wasn't the question whether such a man existed or not in Raflad. But it was a problem whether a man loved his wife.

If the man loved his wife, he would be considerate like Duke Hector. He would spoil and love her regardless of secular thoughts like Duke Hector.

So they could fight for the same treatment as what Florence had!

This recognition made women instantly boiling. They were very excited with their eyes brightening up.

"I'll go back and ask my husband whether he loves me."

"Me too."

Before this time, women had taken humbleness for granted and never thought about it.

"Later, when I get married with my husband, I will ask him about this question first. Therefore, I won't be confused when living with him."

"Absolutely right. It's not reasonable that we should get married with them regardless of their characters, appearances and family background. We even have no right to refuse them as women."

"Yes. It will be fine if we can get married to a man like Duke Hector. But many women are forced to marry gamblers, drunkards or even philanderers. They have to suffer for the rest of their lives."

The women chatted with each other more and more vigorously. The men listening to their words were getting sweat and became nervous.

If it became a reality that women were demanding, men would not only lose their positions in their families but also became inconvenient to marry a wife.

"The duke has made men in the world shocked. Other men won't do it again. I will never agree on that."

"No, I won't either. Women should obey rules passed down from ancestors. There're no reasons for them to change at will."

When one of men spoke about it, the other people would give a reply and refute him.

The women who argued fiercely were suddenly scared to say anything. They didn't dare deny these men's words out of instinct.

The men took the initiative in their own hands here suddenly.

Men smirked. They thought it was normal and it should be normal for women to keep silent.

Then, a woman's voice suddenly broke out from the crowd.

"If you don't change your minds, we women won't get married with anyone. If all men can't get wives, let's see whether you will change your minds."

There was a sudden hush at the scene.

Men were surprised. These words were of treason and heresy!

Then, however, women echoed back in the crowd, "If we are subjected to indignity and humiliation and work like a horse after marriage, we would rather not get married."

"People outside the country have already been equal. As we are all human beings, why can't we be the same?"

"Women should live like women but not servants!"

These words once again lit fires in women's hearts.
