Description
Soaris is a 22-year-old countess who works at the castle. She got married 10 years ago. Anyway, it was a contract marriage between a famous count family that needed money and a Viscount family who wanted “honor”. At the time of marriage, her husband Alendio was a 15-year-old son of Earls, and Soaris, a 12-year-old daughter of Viscounts. “Why you?” “… Yes, I think so too” The conversation did not continue, and I had a long time to drink tea silently. Without knowing each other, only three months later Alendio set out as a knight on the battlefield. “He was an heir, so was exempt from military service as long as he pays, but he hated marrying me that much…?” And for ten years, formal letters only came every six months, and they still don’t know anything about each other. Soaris is now 22 years old, she started to work in the castle due to the downfall of his parents’ family. Her husband, Alendio, played an active role as a general and made numerous military achievements during the war. And there are rumors that they will win the long-standing war and will return to the Arc de Triomphe. Soaris, who suddenly remembers being married, relieves, “I can divorce.” For the past ten years, she’s been working hard and become firmly trusted as the princess’s safe keeper at the castle. I thought “it’s okay, soon, we’ll be finally free.” “He, who has become a Hero of the War, should have a better match.” But when he appeared, he met Soaris and said, “Let’s have our wedding celebrations soon.” Without having time to hand over the divorce petition she was holding, he took her to his huge mansion that was part of the reward obtained, and an unexpected doting life began. “You are as cute as 10 years ago” “Sir, did you lose your eyes on the battle?” It is a story of a man who became a good husband suddenly and his wife who wants to divorce somehow.

My Thoughts on The Hated Wife Wants to Divorce the Hero General! I Don’t Believe in Suddenly Returning and Become Doting
I've been diving into the web novel scene for a while now, and "The Hated Wife Wants to Divorce the Hero General!" definitely piqued my interest with its intriguing title. The premise of a wife who's dead set on divorce despite her husband's sudden doting affections is quite the hook. After reading a decent chunk of the story, here's my take.
First Impressions
Initially, I was charmed by the whole arranged marriage setup and the European ambience. It's a classic trope, but when done well, it can be incredibly engaging. The early chapters set the stage nicely, establishing the initial misunderstandings between the couple. I found myself invested in seeing how their relationship would evolve, or, in this case, potentially dissolve.
What Works Well
The biggest strength of this novel, in my opinion, lies in the male lead's character development. He undergoes a significant transformation during his time away at war, returning with improved communication skills and a genuine desire to win back his wife. This is a refreshing change from the typical emotionally stunted male leads we often see. The comedy is also well-placed, adding a lighthearted touch to the otherwise potentially heavy themes of marital discord and self-doubt.
Areas of Concern
I did find some aspects of the female lead's character a bit frustrating. While her initial desire for divorce is understandable given the initial misunderstandings, her continued resistance to her husband's affections, even after his obvious change, felt a little dragged out. Her deep-seated insecurities and "I don't want to be a burden" complex, while relatable to some extent, could use a bit more nuance to avoid becoming repetitive.

Final Verdict
Overall, "The Hated Wife Wants to Divorce the Hero General!" is a promising story with a lot of potential. The charming male lead and the comedic elements make it an enjoyable read. While the female lead's insecurities can be a bit tiresome at times, I'm still invested in seeing how their relationship unfolds and whether she'll eventually overcome her self-doubt and embrace her husband's affections. I'd recommend giving it a try if you're a fan of romance with a touch of humor and a dash of noble intrigue.
