I found this smart solution for functions.php:

function showBeforeMore($fullText){
    if(@strpos($fullText, '<!--more-->')){
        $morePos = strpos($fullText, '<!--more-->');
        print substr($fullText,0,$morePos);
        print "<span class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"". get_permalink() . "\" class=\"read-more-link\">Read More</a></span>";
    } else {
        print $fullText;
    }
}

<?php showBeforeMore(get_field('YOUR-FIELD-NAME')); ?>

my goal for Wysiwyg Editor with <!–more–> was to integrate a toggle read-more/less-button:

function readmore($fullText){
	if(@strpos($fullText, '<!--more-->')){
		$morePos  = strpos($fullText, '<!--more-->');
		$fullText = preg_replace('/<!--(.|\s)*?-->/', '', $fullText);
		print substr($fullText,0,$morePos);
		print "<div class=\"read-more-content hide\">". substr($fullText,$morePos,-1) . "</div>";
		print "<a class=\"ui lined small button read-more\">Read More</a>";
	} else {
		print $fullText;
	}
}
