The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 108
Just then, someone called out behind her. “Felicia.”
She turned and saw Luke heading her way, his stride confident. Five years had passed, and the boyish charm he once wore had been replaced with a calm, steady maturity.
Felicia offered him a smile. The restaurant lights caught in her eyes, making them glow with warmth.
In these five years, Luke visited whenever he could. They didn’t see each other often since both were busy, but they kept in touch with frequent calls. Their last meeting had been more than half a year ago, when he’d taken time off to fly to the US just to celebrate her birthday.
Now, seeing her again, Luke couldn’t help but think she looked even more beautiful than before.
“I almost didn’t recognize you,” he teased.
Felicia laughed. “You say that every single time. Do you think I magically change my face or something?”
Luke grinned, shaking his head.
They walked together toward the private dining room. Even before they reached the door, Felicia could already hear Savannah’s unmistakable voice.
Felicia stepped inside after knocking lightly.
Everyone turned to see who had arrived.
Savannah’s eyes widened in surprise. She got up, giving Felicia a quick once-over. “Excuse me, gorgeous, may I have your name?”
Felicia burst out laughing. “I’m Savannah.”
Savannah put a hand to her chest in mock awe. “I’ve heard all about the legendary beauty Savannah. Seeing you now, I feel like the rumors are definitely true.”
Anthony rolled his eyes. “Wow, you really know how to hype yourself up.”
Savannah shot him a look. “If I don’t hype myself up, who will? You?”
Anthony smirked. “Is that how you talk to your boss? Careful, I might cut your pay.”
It was close to six when Greg finally arrived.
With everyone there, the food started coming out. Conversation drifted from work to life and back again.
“Felicia, I heard you’re hosting the financial summit next week,” Savannah said, turning to her.
The international summit was coming up in the Capital, with all the industry giants from around the world flying in. Hosting something like that, in front of so many big names, wasn’t something just anyone could pull off. Even Savannah admitted she wasn’t qualified.
Felicia nodded. This would be her first big public appearance since returning home.
Savannah said, “That means Max will definitely show up.”
Felicia’s hand paused for a moment, but her voice stayed even. “It’s fine. He’s just another guest to me now. I’ll treat him the same as anyone else.”
They were still married on paper, but that meant nothing. Their relationship was already over, and there was nothing left between them.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max)
Is this coming to an end...
Oh nooo!! Don’t tell me Max will get washed ashore on a remote island then loses all his memory, then falls inlove with the local girl who saves him. Then when he meets Felicia again he won’t recognize her and breaks her heart again. Additional plot twist is that Felicia is pregnant with their 2nd child. Please pleaseee don’t give us this scenario.. LOL!!!...
If Max can be forgiven Darrin can be forgiven. And I do not like this marriage business but if it has to happen I hope after he gets stranded on some remote island alone while Felicia and his family fight over custody she wins and also gets half his estate. Then by time he comes back she's found having and remarried. Lol...
The writer is good. They're making me interested in Max. I won't say like yet....
It seems the only one who hasn't suffered is Max. Even his family fakes anger and disappointment all their own doing so they suffer a little. Everyone else has suffered. Luke and Jeremy unrequited. Felicia has suffered the most from family to unrequited to romance to long suffering Mother. Even baby Anne never had a mother til Felicia suffered then came back only to suffer some more. lol...
Oh no what did Colton do?... I have a bone to pick. When Olisha had to go the hospital why beg for Felicia? When she so loved Max? Seemed like she was in on the setup for Felicia to see a suicide for the 2nd time orchestrated by holden and his brother again. I might drop this series it's becoming endless with no real satisfaction for me. I don't need it to end because it's like a soap opera but if things don't end up making sense, tying up loose storylines it's gonna get old fast for me. Good luck author....
Anne, I think your baby brother is on the way. Thank goodness it doesn't say that Felicia is crying just like the last time but still, there's no willingness on her part. Max! You need to try harder. Make her fall in love with you again....
The writer did a big one with Jeremy's speech to Max. He said almost everything that needed to be said. I have wanted Felicia or someone who knows the past to just tell that whole stinking family what they did and how disgusting they are and what they're doing now how unfair it all is to Felicia. A pity it was only Max but he really needed to hear this (plus more)....
I love the chase of this novel, how you’ve build each of the characters. They almost seem like real. I feel like I know them irl. But however I would like to know what’s max’s pov and what’s going on in his head. I truly believe max’s just a grey character. And also please please please update more!!!...
I was really hoping that Max and Felicia would end up together, but why did Max do that to Felicia? 😭 Is that his way of making Felicia overcome the trauma Holden caused her? I don't think that's helping at all. I just hope Max's character has some redeeming qualities in the coming chapters....
