The General's Wife Wants to Leave

Experiencing a suffocating marriage with the man whom she was arranged to marry made Joanna want to leave him. But it was a failure as she died as the wife of the man who abandoned her and her son before they divorced. On the verge of her death, she made a wish to not encounter him again if there was a next life. She wished for the end of their fate only in this lifetime. She wanted to forget everything about him. However, when she opened her eyes again, she found herself in the room of the mansion of the man she just married. She was awakened by a dream that seemed to be a nightmare of her past life. She didn’t remember completely everything that had occurred in her past life and the dream was fragmented. But deep inside her heart, she only felt one thing. She was adamant about leaving him, to be far away from him. Therefore, she left his mansion just before she met him in person in the present lifetime. However, what she didn’t expect was that the so-called husband pursued her, not allowing her to leave him. Would Joanna be successful in leaving the man in this lifetime? Would fate play the same tragedy as her past life? --- As he pulled his finger away from her soft, warm lips, he said, “It is good you stopped winding up, Joanna. Otherwise, I would have used the other method to make you stop blabbering over the same, boring topic endlessly.” When he noticed the stubborn woman was about to prove herself to be stubborn, the man leaned forward in a swift movement, facing the woman’s stupefied face which was an inch away from his. “Continue to blabbering, don’t blame me if I apply my other method right now,” the man murmured above her breath, trailing his gaze from her quivering eyes to her lips before moving it back to her now widened eyes. --- *Cover doesn’t belong to the author.

To melt one's heart

Joanna was an ordinary young lady. Just like how other young ladies would normally act, she would apparently be affected by such a sweet compliment that came from a gentleman, especially when it was the first time she heard a gentleman, who was not her father, praise her as a beautiful lady and the only one in his eyes.

Moreover, there was no suitor who ever said that to her.

However, Joanna was in a situation where she could not act normally, as she should, in response to the compliment she heard.

If she was really a normal lady who had never experienced a nightmare that haunted her life since then, she would have probably jumped here and there in joy with a blushing, happy face when hearing a man praise her for the first time in her life.

Therefore, she refrained from being overjoyed, which would make her guard down, as ending up like Joanna in the dream was the thing that Joanna avoided.
