After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1408

Chapter 1408: The Roach Family (Part 2)

Liaroa applied the so-called eyeshadows, the soft brush tickling her eyelid. Then she added the powder that lightened up her skin, making it smoother, without making it appear like she added dried flour on her face.

Then, she dabbed a bit of the blush, rendering her appear shy and demure, especially in front of her man.

However, when it was time to apply the so-called lipstick on her lips, the door suddenly burst open, causing her to mark at the wrong place.

Her heart broke at the waste and her heart heated up in anger. She whipped her head to the door, intending to make the person pay.

However, it ended up being her mother instead. "Daughter!" she screamed. Her eyes were red, telling Lia she had just been crying.

"Mother?" she asked, pushing down her annoyance because of the wasted product. Since it was her mother, maybe she could ask her to get her new sets instead.

Her mother, Leinala, was one of the Roach Patriarch’s concubines. She also became the favorite thanks to Lia’s loose connection with the Trions through their daughter.

If Estra didn’t attend her wedding, then her mother’s position would also be threatened and, by extension, both of their influence in the maternal family!

Her mother, who was extremely pale, looked at her. "Why are you here, Mother?"

"Where would I be?" Lia asked, regretfully wiping the mess on her lips and standing up.

"Your fiance is currently in the whorehouse!" freeωebnovēl.c૦m

"What?!"

"That bitch just told me," Leinala said, gritting her teeth in anger. She was probably referring either to the main wife or another concubine vying for position. They had always been in each other’s heads like this, one upping each other, trying to push the others down one way or another.

"It’s so embarrassing!" the older woman continued to cry. "How could he play around a few days before your wedding?!"

"This cannot be, my child!" Leinala said, grabbing her daughter’s arm. "You must take him back! Who knows if he planted something in those women’s wombs!!"

This would inevitably lead to a woman’s worst nightmare: their husband’s illegitimate children!

Lia wanted to go, but making a scene was not good for the image she had established. Rather, she would seem foolish, uncultured, and uneducated instead.

After all, all men needed the taste of many women. It was what would keep them happy. The key was who they would favor more, and who they’d come home to in the end.

According to their beliefs, this was a wife’s responsibility. Therefore, it was they who were lacking if their husband found more joy elsewhere.

On the other hand, for those who were not yet married, they could only look away when they saw their beaus with someone else. Many wouldn’t mind too much as long as they protected themselves, because the man would be married to them at the end of the day.
