Plot of The Ex-Husband's Revenge
Leon Wolf is trapped in a demeaning and abusive marriage with Marilyn, who belongs to the wealthy Manson family. He is treated as an indentured servant by Marilyn and her family, enduring constant humiliation and labor without complaint. Despite his efforts to gain his wife's acceptance, Leon's world is shattered when Marilyn, pregnant with another man's child, demands a divorce and expels him from the household. He only received kindness from Marilyn's grandfather, Elder Manson. After being cast out, Leon seeks solace at a cemetery near Elder Manson's grave, expressing gratitude and sorrow for the old man's kindness and protection.
While leaving the cemetery, Leon witnesses Iris, whom he had a conflict with, being attacked and nearly murdered by two suspicious men. Overcome with a sense of duty and outrage, Leon intervenes and saves the woman, Iris, from being drowned in a river. However, following this heroic act, Leon's actions take a surprising turn as he reacts impulsively and punishes Iris for her earlier behavior towards him. He destroys her phone, throws away her car keys, and leaves her stranded in the desolate cemetery.
Overcome with guilt and remorse, Leon returns to find Iris, only to discover she is now in grave danger again, this time from the same assailants who had attacked her earlier.

As Leon faces his imminent demise, he unexpectedly finds himself revived by a mysterious power contained within a pendant around his neck, which imbues him with incredible strength and resilience.
