The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 159
Nate glanced at him. “Looks like you know Evelynn too, Max.”
Max nodded. “Yeah, I do.”
“Jeremy introduced her to me before,” Nate went on. “She came by today to drop off a gift for him. Seems like Anne really likes her.”
Max just hummed in response.
After that, Max joined Nate for a game of chess.
Meanwhile, Mandy took Anne over to the pond. There was a little waterfall flowing over the rocks, surrounded by bright green plants. The water was clear and divided into three sections, each with different kinds of fancy fish. Mandy had always loved keeping fish. Wyatt had bought her all sorts of rare and beautiful ones, and there was someone who took care of them every day.
Anne was completely taken by the fish, watching them dart around in the water. Mandy handed her some fish food to toss in.
Felicia sat on the edge of the pond with them, just watching. Anne looked so happy and carefree that she couldn’t help but pull out her phone to snap a few photos. Before coming back to the country, she never thought she’d get moments like this with her daughter. Even if they couldn’t recognize each other as mother and daughter, just being close, watching Anne’s happy little smile, was enough for her.
Of course, happy moments never seem to last long.
Felicia sat on a bench, weaving a flower crown. She was wearing a white embroidered dress that day, her hair half up, looking soft and elegant. There was a gentle smile on her face as she worked, making her seem even warmer.
When she finished, she placed one crown on Mandy’s head and started on another for Anne. Anne’s hair was a little messy, so Felicia quickly braided it before putting the crown on. With the flowers and her neat braids, Anne looked just like a tiny princess.
Felicia couldn’t help herself. She leaned over and gave Anne a kiss on the forehead.
Anne’s eyes sparkled. “I want to give Evelynn a kiss too!”
Felicia leaned down, and Anne pressed a kiss to her cheek, giggling like she’d just gotten a treat.
Right at that moment, Anne shouted, “Daddy!”
“Alright!” Anne replied, but she still ran over to Felicia to tell her before following Mandy.
Once the girls were gone, Max’s face went back to its usual calm, almost distant look. He walked up and stopped a few feet from Felicia.
Felicia’s hands curled into fists as she stared at him, saying nothing.
He spoke first. “So you’re the director at Roen Capital now?”
Felicia frowned a little, her lips twisting into a smirk. “I thought you weren’t interested in me, Mr. Hawthorne. Are you secretly checking up on me?”
Max let out a cold laugh. “If you have nothing to hide, why would you care if I look into your background?”
Felicia’s face turned icy. “You really are the definition of unreasonable. I honestly have nothing left to say to you.”

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....
