The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 155
“Alright, then.” Jeremy ended the call without another word.
Felicia glanced at Luke. “You can give me a ride home.”
Luke grinned. “We hardly ever come to this side of town. Why not look around a bit before we head back?”
Just as Jeremy was about to leave, he ran into a group coming toward him. Max had Anne in his arms. Tatiana and Andrea followed, chatting and laughing together. They really did look like one big, happy family.
Jeremy could already guess what was going on.
Andrea noticed Jeremy. For a second, she paused. He was still as striking and calm as ever, handsome in a way that was hard to ignore.
Jeremy didn’t react, just shifted his gaze and walked away.
Max watched him disappear.
Outside, their car was already waiting. Max lifted Anne into her car seat, buckled her in, and then turned to Andrea. His voice was gentle. “I’ll take Anne home first. Be careful on your way back.”
Andrea’s eyes clouded over, a trace of disappointment and hurt showing as she looked at him. Because of Anne, he didn’t even have time to take her home anymore. She couldn’t vent her feelings to him the way she used to.
Tatiana walked over. “Max, I’ll take care of Anne. You should go with Andrea and see her home.”
Max glanced at Andrea, ready to agree, but Anne suddenly called out, “Daddy.”
He turned, ruffling her hair. “Daddy’s just going to take Aunt Andrea home first.”
“But you promised you’d watch cartoons with me when we got home,” Anne said, her voice small.
Max put the storybook down on the nightstand and stroked her back, trying to soothe her. “Don’t think about that, Anne. I will always be here for you.”
Anne’s eyes filled with tears as she looked up at him. “You’re so nice to Aunt Andrea, and she’s always with you. Is it because you weren’t nice to Mommy? Is that why she’s not here anymore?”
Anne was always a little more sensitive and clever than other kids her age. Now that she was getting older, she was starting to understand more.
Her words made Max’s hand still for a moment.
He spent a long time calming her down and getting her to sleep. When she finally drifted off, he gently wiped away the tear tracks on her cheeks.
The last time Anne was sick, she’d only asked about her mom, but she’d never gotten so emotional before.
Max tucked her in and slipped quietly out of the room.

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....
