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?

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.

The General's Wife Wants to Leave

Despite the unexpected response shown by the man sitting leisurely before her, Joanna kept proceeding with her plan, ignoring how intense his gaze was on her.

Joanna lowered her eyes to look at her fidgeting, swollen-reddened fingers. The rashes on her body seemed not to affect him. He did not even look disgusted at her as he easily took a seat beside her as if she were a beautiful lady with smooth porcelain skin.

Even Joanna herself, when she looked at her current condition in the mirror, with a reddened and swollen face, apart from the same things occurring on her whole body, could not make herself look in the mirror any longer. But this man… Joanna sighed inwardly.

"There are some reasons that have driven me to this point, to make me decide to step down from this marriage," Joanna began to explain her reasons with a voice that sounded feeble. Her head lowered as she still had her eyes on her fidgeting fingers.
