The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 1136

Ivy took the initiative to invite Felicia to bake a blueberry cake together, and Felicia readily agreed. "Alright," Felicia said, turning to Jeremy. "Are you going to join us?"

"I think I will pass," Jeremy replied smoothly. "I will just enjoy your handiwork later."

"Sounds good."

The two women headed into the kitchen. Ivy knew how to bake, and Felicia assisted her. As Felicia was cleaning the blueberries, she suddenly asked, "Ivy, do you have feelings for Jeremy?"

Ivy hands froze in the dough. She turned to look at Felicia, her voice faltering slightly. "Why... why would you ask that all of a sudden?"

Felicia offered a gentle smile. "Do not be nervous. I was just asking because you were making it quite obvious earlier."

In the blueberry orchard, Felicia had noticed Ivy stealing glances at Jeremy. Whenever their eyes accidentally met, Ivy would instinctively look away. When Jeremy offered to carry her basket, Felicia could clearly feel the tension radiating from Ivy body as they linked arms. Although Ivy appeared calm on the surface, Felicia female intuition told her that Ivy was deeply infatuated with him.

Ivy slowly lowered her eyes, her hands tense in the dough. Fortunately, Felicia did not remember anything right now, so the situation was not entirely embarrassing. Sensing her discomfort, Felicia softened her tone. "I am sorry. Maybe I should not have said that."

She was not clear on the exact nature of Ivy and Jeremy relationship right now. They definitely knew each other, but perhaps they were not that close yet. Ivy shook her head slightly. "No, it is fine." She paused before admitting, "I do admire Mr. Milman, but we are not very close. It is just an unrequited affection on my part."

Felicia curved her lips upward. "You are so beautiful. If you took a little initiative, you might just have a chance."

A faint blush immediately crept up Ivy ears. Her voice laced with shyness, she murmured, "Being beautiful does not guarantee a chance. Mr. Milman is not that superficial."

"Thank you," Ivy whispered.

"Then why do we not bake a cake and let him properly taste your handiwork?" Felicia suggested warmly. "That would be a wonderful start!"

Ivy was not sure how to express the flurry of emotions in her chest. She felt she was not entirely ready to take that proactive first step. Felicia encouragement felt like a gentle push, leaving her both nervous and filled with an indescribable sense of anticipation. Ivy finished baking the blueberry cake. Before it completely set, Felicia took a small taste and nodded in approval. "It is delicious."

"That is good," Ivy replied, relieved.

Once the cake was ready, the two of them left the kitchen.
