His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 1347

“That’s how Turlen is. Truth is, that’s not a good thing. There's actually nothing wrong with the locals getting married to a foreigner. I just don't understand why the government doesn't promote this.”

At the mention of that topic, Lana became furious. In actual fact, her youngest aunt had fallen in love with a foreigner when she traveled to another country. Unfortunately, due to the conditions of the country that did not approve of intermarriages, Lana's grandparents married her aunt off to another man.

Regardless, her aunt was unwilling to marry since she loved another man. Lana's grandfather would not allow it. So, without any warning, her aunt was forced into a marriage, which led her to death in less than three years.

“We're living in modern times. How can the country still have such laws? Why aren't they changing it?” Xavier was rather curious about the issue.

“Of course, it's because of—” Lana suddenly stopped herself before she finished her sentence.

Raising his brows, Xavier asked, “Why did you stop?”

Lana had stopped out of fear. She was worried her words might spread, leading her to be convicted for commenting on the country's affairs and bringing trouble to her family.

“Are you afraid?” Xavier's words had hit the nail on the head, making her grunt briefly in response.

“Why can't you tell me about it? Don't you already know my identity? Why should you be afraid when I'm not even worried about you exposing me?” Xavier asked on purpose since he really wanted to know the details of the matter.

Lana gave him a glance. After thinking about it, she realized he was right. After all, she knew about his secret, which made her the one with the upper hand. She figured he would not dare to reveal the information to anyone. At that thought, she scanned her surroundings, making sure there was no one around before saying, “Of course, it's because of the queen mother and the queen herself.”

The queen mother? And the queen?

Xavier arched a brow. Why is this place still so conservative? They even have such titles.

“They're just women. Isn't the king supposed to be the one deciding for the country?” he questioned.
