The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 166
Felicia gave a short, cold laugh. “Yeah, we don’t even know each other. So why did you spread lies about me?”
She stepped closer, took the tablet from his hands, and pulled up an account. “Don’t tell me you’re not the one who registered this?” The screen showed the forum account Davis had signed up for with his phone. He had tried to delete it, but it wasn’t hard for someone with the right skills to bring it back.
Davis stared at the information, his face going pale. He wanted to deny it, but the evidence was sitting right there. He had nothing to say. All he could do was lower his head, avoiding Darin’s gaze completely.
Darin’s eyes were dark as he looked at him. “Why did you do it?”
Davis glanced up, panic flashing in his eyes, but he couldn’t say a word. He just dropped his head again.
Right then, Davis’ phone started buzzing in his pocket. He fumbled it out, saw Andrea’s name on the screen. Earlier, his boss had called, telling him Darin wanted to see him at Highfield Manor right away. He’d already felt something was off. He’d tried to call Andrea, but she hadn’t answered.
Now, Davis looked at Darin, frozen, not sure if he should pick up.
“Answer it,” Darin said, his voice cold and flat.
Davis’s hands were shaking as he hit the answer button and put the phone to his ear.
Andrea’s voice came through, sounding as smug as ever. “What is it?”
Davis had no idea what to say. He just stood there, silent.
Andrea got impatient when she didn’t get her answer.
Davis took a step forward and handed the phone to Darin.
“Andrea,” Darin said.
In the background, another voice came through, faint but clear enough. “What’s wrong?”
“Max,” Andrea called, her voice suddenly shaky, and then the line went dead.
Darin handed the phone back to Davis and looked at Felicia, who was clearly furious.
“Andrea really crossed the line,” Darin said quietly. “I can apologize for her. Whatever you want, just say it.”
Felicia laughed, sharp and mocking. “You really do spoil your sister.”
Andrea had every reason to be arrogant. No matter what she did, there was always someone there to clean up her mess. Compared to that, slandering Felicia was barely worth mentioning.
Darin caught the look of contempt in Felicia’s eyes, and for a moment, he felt a strange sense of dread. He didn’t answer her.

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....
