Review Detail of StacyArlia in The villainess is worse the second time around

DNF This story was pretty good for a while, until her secret was revealed. Suddenly the "strong and capable" FL is a pathetic weak mess that can't even stand up to her extremely messed up and mistrusting husband. Honestly, even though the ML went through with her execution in the first timeline, I was willing to give him a chance. Until his reaction when he found out her secret and was forced to marry her. You know your SO had to hide her gender to get into the school, but you still rail her over the coals for lying?? Not only that, you refuse to listen?? Then you say she forced you into marrying her WHEN SHE LITERALLY RAN AWAY He's so toxic it's not even funny. Yeah, she might've been a spy. Something that could've been easily figured out IF HE TALKED TO HER. Honestly, I hate this classic trope of the FL having to conceal her identity for various reasons and the ML being a COMPLETE fucking asshole about it instead of thinking, "oh, maybe she had a good reason. I should support her AS IS MY JOB AS THE ML." Like, are these the standards for MLs these days? Let him treat you as his emotional punching bag because you lied to him about something small that could've easily been resolved 🙄 Not to mention me losing any respect for the FL because she's literally one of the most pathetic and weak minded heroines I've ever read. Yeah, she's definitely "strong". Enough to get locked inside the palace and get kicked out of the bedroom on their first night. And still going back for more. 🙄 I would've thought she'd at least been like bye bitch to the ML after that. Or at least made his life hell by teaming up with his brother. That would've been a lot more refreshing. Rather than going back for seconds after being his emotional punching bag the first time. Anyway, great story! The first couple chapters at least. Maybe it picks up. I dunno. I'm too tired of both characters at this point to really want to root for either of them.
