Felicia stood quietly behind him. He knew exactly who she was, but unlike Kennedy, he didn’t make a show of picking on her. If anything, he seemed polite and genuinely well-mannered.
She stepped out of the elevator. Her phone buzzed in her hand. Greg was calling.
“I just got out of the elevator,” Felicia said, picking up. After a quick exchange, she hung up.
By the time she made it through the security gates, the man from before had already disappeared down the hall. Greg was waiting for her, and as soon as he spotted her, he hurried over and offered his arm for support.
They walked out of the office building together. Greg grabbed her suitcase, loaded it into his car, and drove her home. When they finally pulled into the driveway, it was already past twelve thirty.
Felicia washed up quickly and slid straight into bed, exhausted.
For the next three days, Felicia stayed at her family’s house. Nobody from the villa reached out. It didn’t matter. No one seemed to care where she was living anyway.
Her work handover went smoothly, each task falling into place without much trouble. Every morning, Ava would get up early to make her breakfast and lunch. It didn’t take long for Felicia to notice her energy returning, her skin looking healthier, her mood lighter. The hurt Tatiana and Max had caused her was slowly being soothed, just by being at home with people who cared.
Saturday morning, Ava took Felicia to a yoga studio downtown. Felicia had found it online and really liked the look of it. It was expensive, sure, but the facilities were great and the instructors were all highly qualified. They even had personalized classes for pregnant women.
After checking the place out, Felicia felt good about it. The only drawback was the price. A single private session started at eight thousand dollars, and it only went up depending on the instructor’s experience. The staff mentioned that a lot of their regulars were socialites and wives from wealthy families, and they even offered home visits for an extra fee.
Ava went ahead and signed Felicia up for a month’s worth of sessions, picking a mid-range package that cost around thirty thousand. Felicia tried to pay for it herself. She’d made good money working as Max’s assistant and had some savings put aside.
“Oh my god, can you not say that so loud? There are other people here,” Andrea replied, her cheeks turning pink.
“Look at you blush! I knew it. Come on, spill it. Is Max as amazing in bed as everyone says? How many rounds can he go in a night?”
“Do you really need to ask? He’s probably a seven-times-a-night kind of guy,” someone teased.
“Oh, you guys, stop,” Andrea said, laughing.
Their voices echoed through the hallway as they all walked into the locker room together, still giggling, nearly bumping into Felicia as she stepped out.

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....
