The Stepmother Doesn’t Want to Be Killed by the Villainous Son

   Well, there have been similar stories before (and all those so-called “plotholes” that @Whyalways mentioned are actually very typical occurrences in the lastest works in this genre)…
   One rather new story element is that the female protagonist is mute (!) – so in a way this is one of the rare occasions where a main character is disabled. Probably only temporarily though.
   Another somehow-unique idea is the telepathy-through-touch ability of the small and still very innocent son who comes to trust his now-changed stepmother because he can read her thoughts.
   Other than that the manhwa is all cliché so far – the villainess possessed the body of a villainess and now tries her best to be a good person. The son rather quickly builds up a good relationship with her and starts to thrive, which is the fl’s goal for life so her step-son won’t turn into a villain.
   The biggest obstacle however: the fl’s now-husband is very condescending and rude (towards basically everyone actually). He is constantly suspecting the fl of plotting something evil (up until chapter 15), but he’s also a horrible jerk towards his cute son by ignoring him and “teaching” him by conflicting trauma 🙁
   The one thing that I’m worried about is that this unsufferable trash of a father could actually turn out to be the male lead of the story.
   I fear that the author might want us to forgive him later on when he has learnt to behave kinder and will be made out to be pitiful because of tons of sob-stories about his own traumatic childhood….
   There have been worse male leads in “romance” manhwas for sure who their authors made out to have been “reformed” by love – which is absolute bs, because people like that quickly bounce back to their cold, selfish and uncaring real personality as soon as love cools down. I’m telling you this from my own experience, so beware!

   Way too many plotholes for my understanding
   1) she reincarnated and just started like nothing changed nothing happened way too odd to happen
   2) language barrier
   3) ik like in ancient they would have sword training but 5 years is way too soon for that i bet most of the children can’t even lift the sword
   4) he is his own son not like son of his brother or something why would he treat him like that like would your dead wife want u to behave like that to her son when she’s not in this world atleast in other parent child dead mom manhwas they have caring father
   5) no info on why, how she was transmigrated it’s also not like some truck kun hit her she was sleeping and then boom
   6) voice..
   Way too many plotholes

      That’s not plotholes dude…
      That’s just an abusive father and plot points the story hasn’t gotten around to explain yet
