I think Geumhwa did really love his ex at first but the ex became possessive and abusive. If the ex never got like that I think they would have been together for a very long time.
What pisses me off the most when I read these reincarnation stories is the "prince" who falls for the "heroine's" fake ass tears and fake ass cutesy act and breaks off the engagement with the MC. Honestly they're such a dumb sacks of shit. Makes me think these prince's have worms for brains
