The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 204
Outside the classroom, Mr. Salas couldn’t stop praising Felicia’s teaching. “Evelynn, your teaching style reminds me a lot of Mr. Milman,” he said warmly.
Felicia smiled, gracious and calm. “Mr. Milman is someone I really look up to.”
Mr. Salas nodded in approval. They chatted for a moment before he and the others left. Max stayed silent the entire time, never saying a word to Felicia. She didn’t look his way either. When he finally walked out, Felicia let out a quiet breath she hadn’t realized she was holding.
That single class ended up making Felicia a sensation on the campus forum. Someone had posted a candid photo of her taken from the side while she was teaching. In the picture, she stood at the podium, sharp and elegant, her posture perfect and her profile beautiful. The way she looked down, focused on her lesson, made her seem like the ultimate intelligent goddess.
Students immediately started speculating about her relationship with Mr. Milman. They couldn’t help but comment on how well they looked together. The thread quickly blew up.
Felicia had no idea any of this was happening online. After class, she stuck around to answer a few more questions from students. Then she headed back to Jeremy’s office and handed Liam the stack of books and materials.
“Thank you for today, Evelynn,” Liam said, offering her a sincere smile.
Felicia returned the smile.
She left the office and made her way toward the elevator. As she turned the corner, she spotted Max standing there, waiting. Felicia froze for a split second. Max glanced over, meeting her eyes. Without hesitating, Felicia spun around and walked straight back to Jeremy’s office.
Liam noticed her return. “Evelynn, did you forget something?” he asked.
Felicia sat down, looking relaxed. “I’m gonna wait here for a bit.”
Liam looked a little confused but didn’t ask more. He just remembered a few academic questions he wanted to ask, so Felicia patiently helped him. Sitting this close to her, Liam’s ears turned pink. Felicia noticed but pretended not to.
Suddenly, Liam remembered something. “Oh, by the way, Evelynn, someone posted about you on the school forum. You’re getting a ton of positive comments. The post is blowing up.”
Felicia looked curious, so Liam handed her his phone. She scrolled through the thread, smiling at the students’ praise. Most of the comments were about her looks, or gossiping about whether she and Jeremy were dating. Felicia couldn’t help but laugh quietly at the rumors.
Felicia smiled. “How about I cook dinner tonight?”
She hadn’t brought a gift and figured a home-cooked meal would be a nice gesture. Nate didn’t object. “Sure, it’s just the two of us. I’d love to see what you can do.”
“Alright,” Felicia agreed.
She went to the kitchen and asked the butler if Nate had any food restrictions, then started preparing.
Nate settled into the living room, watching TV. A little while later, the butler came in.
“Sir, Max is here.”

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....
