The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 1028

Anne thought for a moment. "I don't know. Daddy, does Uncle Jeremy like Mommy?"

"You're just a little kid. Don't overthink these things. Daddy will be home very soon," Max replied smoothly.

"Are you and Mommy going to have a wedding when you get back?" Anne asked, her mind drifting to her dream of being a flower girl in a pretty dress.

"Yes," Max promised softly.

"Yay!" Anne giggled. As long as her parents had a wedding, she was happy.

After a brief chat, Anne hung up first, not wanting to disturb his work.

The moment the call ended, all traces of tenderness vanished from Max's face, leaving behind a terrifying, stormy glare.

His phone buzzed again almost immediately. It was Darin.

"Hello," Max answered.

Darin instantly picked up on the murderous edge in Max's voice. "The scandal has already blown up domestically. What exactly is going on over there?" The news was clearly orchestrated to manipulate the media back home.

Max completely ignored the question. "How do you want me to handle Andrea?"

Darin knew instantly that Andrea had crossed Max's absolute bottom line. The fact that Max was even asking meant he had already decided how to destroy her. After a heavy silence, Darin finally spoke. "It's your decision. But she was manipulated."

A moment later, the maid picked up the phone. "Sir! Your mother has fainted!"

Darin gripped his phone tightly. "Take care of her. Tell her when she wakes up that I will bring Andrea back."

"Yes, yes, I will! I'll tell her!" the maid cried.

"Make sure the doctor attends to her properly."

Darin hung up the phone and immediately ordered his assistant to book the next flight to New York.
