The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 14
Max gave a light laugh and glanced at Andrea, who was heading their way. “You really can’t let Andrea find out you have a little sister. If she knew how much you cared about her, she’d definitely get jealous.”
Darin shook his head. “Look, I don’t mind you dating Andrea, but until you deal with your own mess, there’s no way I’ll let her move in with you.”
Max just smiled, not saying a word.
Andrea came over, eyes bright. “What are you guys talking about?”
Darin just grinned. “Nothing much.”

“Felicia, what is your deal? Do you honestly think you’re that important?” Sandy slammed a pile of files onto Felicia’s desk.
Just a minute before, Sandy had tried the usual trick, dumping work on Felicia that wasn’t even hers. This time, Felicia didn’t even hesitate—she just said no.
Felicia looked at Sandy, who was practically shaking with anger, and gave a cool, mocking smile. “Sandy, if you can’t handle your work and need to shove it onto someone else, maybe you should quit.”
The whole office went quiet. People stared, wide-eyed, like they couldn’t believe what they’d just heard. It really sounded like Felicia had reached her limit and was ready to walk away.
Sandy’s face twisted with rage as she stormed forward, hand raised to slap Felicia. But Felicia grabbed her water cup and threw the water right at Sandy’s face.
Sandy stood there, dripping, frozen in place for a second before she shrieked, “Felicia, you shameless, fat cow!”
“What’s going on in here?” Isaac’s voice cut through the chaos. Sandy stopped short, her hand still in the air.
Isaac marched over, his expression dark as he took in Sandy’s soaked face. “What happened?”
Sandy sucked in a breath. “I gave Felicia an assignment, and she refused to do it.”
Honestly, it was fine. She needed to talk to him anyway.
Felicia looked right at Marian, her voice icy. “Are you the maid here, or am I? Should I call Miranda and tell her you’re trying to act like the lady of the house?”
Marian’s face changed color. The timid, obedient Felicia she was used to was gone. Now Felicia was standing up to her, completely unafraid.
“You’re crazy. Completely impossible,” Marian snapped, then turned and stomped away.
Felicia slammed the door shut. The loud bang made Marian jump, and she immediately pulled out her phone to call Tatiana.
Felicia leaned back against the door, tilting her head up as she sucked in deep breaths. All the pent-up frustration crashed over her, and tears started streaming down her cheeks.
That night, Max came home. Marian rushed to greet him, eager to tell her side of the story.

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....
