The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 137
When Felicia stepped out of the restroom, Max had already disappeared. She found Jeremy and Heather waiting for her, and filled them in on Luke’s dinner invitation for that evening.
Heather let out a dramatic sigh. “I was hoping to guilt my brother into paying for dinner tonight.”
Jeremy grinned. “Guess I dodged a bullet.”
Heather shot him a look. “You can’t escape forever. Felicia, start thinking about what you want to eat. Next time, Jeremy’s definitely buying.”
Felicia laughed. “Alright, I’ll do my research. I’ll make a list of all the rarest, fanciest dishes I can find.”
Jeremy joked, “Just don’t eat me into bankruptcy.”
They headed over to watch the fireworks show at six. The three of them stood together, faces lit by bursts of color, and didn’t leave until the last spark faded from the sky.
That night, Luke treated them to dinner at The Willow Bistro. Afterward, everyone said their goodbyes.
“Drive safe,” Felicia told Jeremy.
He nodded. “You too. Get some rest when you get home.”
Felicia slid into Luke’s car. After a whole afternoon out, she was totally wiped. She leaned back against the seat, her head dropping as sleep crept over her. Luke let her rest quietly.
Suddenly, Felicia opened her eyes. “Is Max thinking about getting remarried?”
Luke glanced over, surprised. “Not that I’ve heard. Why do you ask?”
Felicia kept her eyes forward. Max was still her husband, at least on paper, so even if he wanted to marry Andrea, he couldn’t. But she knew that wasn’t going to last forever.
Felicia listened, understanding what Luke was trying to say. No matter what happened, Anne would always have a place in the Hawthorne family.
She let out a long breath. “All I want is for her to be happy.”
Luke looked over, noticing the sadness and helplessness in her eyes. He knew how much she wanted to see her daughter, but what role could she even have in Anne’s life now?
He drove Felicia back to the villa. Before she got out, she handed him a bag with a water bottle inside.
Luke looked it over and smiled. “This is pretty cute.”
Felicia opened the door. “You should get some rest when you get home.”
“I will,” Luke said softly. “Goodnight.”

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....
