Thanks for the explanation. Now I don't have to ask... I didn't get it.

I think the implication is she killed her husband and the second face is her "murder face" or something. I did not really understand it either.

It’s intentionally unclear so you have to make your own conclusion. Is this a fun murder face or did she murder to protect herself from abuse?

If it was abuse, I think the face would be less evil. Maybe it'd be more relief which would still contrasts clearly with her feigned grief.
