Chapter 1838


    "She''s my ex-girlfriend," King replied, shrugging helplessly.


    "She probably still has feelings for me and probably why she keepsing back to bug me," he added.


    X Quest chuckled. “I see.”


    "She''s the daughter of a wealthy businessman from Country M," King exined further.


    "It seems shees from a decent family. She looks quite good too. Why did you break up with her?" X asked.


    "She..." King hesitated again.


    X chuckled again. "It''s fine if you don''t want to say it."


    It was none of her business, anyway.


    "It''s not that I don''t want to say it. There isn''t anything I''d keep from you. But honestly, it''s rather embarrassing. She''s physically abusive," King stated. X was shocked to hear this.


    Physical abuse?


    X found it hard to imagine a man of King''s stature, over six feet tall, being physically abused by a much shorter woman.


    She really couldn''t picture it.


    "Why?" X asked incredulously.


    King scratched his head. "Why else? She has violent tendencies. I''d get hit if I''m not careful, and I don''t want to hit her back because I love her. Besides, she''s a woman, and I''m a man. How could I hit a woman?


    "However, I have mulled things over after a while. As much as I love her, I can''t ept a physically abusive partner," he added.


    "Yes, you did the right thing. You should not tolerate physically abusive partners. If it happened once, it could happen for the rest of your life," X responded.


    "Yes."


    Sophie Kenwick silently listened without interrupting.


    She found at unbelievable for women


    to be physically abusive towa


    how their statuses in society


    had improved over the years.


    During ancient times, women tended to be submissive as their husbands could never be wrong.


    A woman''s husband was her everything.


    In the past, women were abused by their husbands, but not vice versa.


    Sophie felt that life in the present time was a wonderful one.


    Other than not having her father or any of her family around, everything else seemed pleasant.


    Upon entering King''s office, X urged him to do a makeover for Sophie.


    X sat nearby going through her work emails on her phone as she waited for Sophie.


    At all times, X had a soft expression on her face.


    King first trimmed Sophie''s eyebrows, then applied some light makeup on her face.


    The makeup wasn''t heavy, and it also had a casual feel to it. It suited Sophie''s taste very well.


    Once her makeup wasplete, she looked even prettier than before.


    Then, King picked up a pair of


    scissors and began working on bet


    hair, first trimming her long tresses until they were shoulder-length. After that, he dyed it an ash-gray color.


    Once the hair-dying waspleted, King curled the edges of her hair slightly outward.


    He then divided her hair into two sections. The upper section was gathered into a high ponytail, while


    the lower part was levers.

    He left her bangs alone, so they looked the same as they did before.


    At one nce, Sophie appeared even more fashionable than she did before.


    Her overall vibe and image had improved tremendously.


    Sophie was extremely satisfied to see herplete transformation through the mirror.


    King was also very pleased with her makeover.
