interesting 😊 well then nice to meet you: real-life version of Bella 😉
So what do you suggest, should I start with Villette or The Tenant of Wildfell Hall?

As with any book choice, I think it depends what you're in the mood for. Wildfell Hall is definitely more dramatic. The scenes are more varied, more stuff happens and the focus is concentrated mostly outwards. As I wrote here, Villette is very much an inner journey and contains a lot of angst and longing. Wildfell is still my favourite so the biased me would say to go for that. :) If you want to go for Charlotte, actually, her other novel The Professor might be a good halfway point. The themes are similar but it's much shorter and a little bit lighter.
