My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

"Do you know I'm a foreigner?" said Ernest with a snicker.

Hector nodded. "Yes."

At the beginning, he didn't know that Florence was a foreigner, but on the way here, he sent someone to find out Florence's identity.

When he saw Ernest, he was surer of their identity.

Ernest, a foreigner who had only been here a few days, had already become the darling of the royal family and was popular in the country.

He also knew that Ernest had turned down the princess's proposal, so he was lucky that he was not rejected.

Ernest said deeply, "Do as the Romans do. I follow your rules here, but you have to obey ours, too."

"My Florence is pampered since she was a child and she is the apple of my eye. Even if she marries you, she won't wait on, take care of, or serve a man."

"If you want to marry her, you must abolish the supremacy of men over women in the family. You have to put her first, and let no one else have any dissatisfaction of her. Can you do it?"

Hector was stunned.

He had thought of many, many requests, but not these ones.

The idea that women were inferior of men was deeply rooted in Raflad and his mind.

And now he had to throw that concept away, to take care of Florence and put her first?

Such a thing had never happened or been heard of in Raflad.

Even Samantha, who had just followed them, was shocked to hear this.

She murmured, "It's impossible."

The idea was so ingrained that few people in the world have the gumption to defy it.

What was more, Hector was a duke. How could he agree to these requirements?
