The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 231
“Thank you, Professor. I want to try talking to Max myself, just one more time. I’ll reach out to you after that.”
For Anne’s sake, if nothing else, Felicia didn’t want things to turn ugly.
“All right,” Jeremy replied.
Felicia called Cameron next, letting him know she had to cancel their meeting for today.
After breakfast, she drove straight to Oakridge Estate. She pulled up in front of the villa and parked. In the past, it was impossible to pin down where Max might be, but lately, he spent most weekends at home.
Felicia rang the doorbell.
Amaris answered quickly, her expression souring the instant she saw who it was. Felicia didn’t bother acknowledging her and stepped right inside.
“Hey, what do you think you’re doing? Evelynn, you don’t live here,” Amaris said, moving to block her path.
Felicia stopped, giving her a cold, steady look. “If you don’t want trouble, step aside.”
Amaris froze, clearly intimidated. Felicia brushed past her and walked into the villa.
She could hear piano music drifting from one of the rooms as she entered the living room. The maid noticed Felicia but didn’t try to stop her, just watched as Felicia made her way toward the music room, looking for all the world like she belonged there.
Felicia paused at the doorway. Inside, Max and Anne were seated together at the piano. The room was bright and warm, sunlight streaming in. Anne looked adorable in her blue princess dress, sitting perfectly still, like a little porcelain doll.
Max wore a casual shirt in a shade that matched Anne’s dress. His long, graceful fingers moved over the piano keys, his whole presence gentle and elegant. He played along with Anne, keeping to her rhythm.
Father and daughter exchanged a smile, their eyes shining like stars. When Max looked at Anne, his gaze was full of pride and tenderness.
Then Max noticed Felicia standing at the door. He only glanced her way for a second before looking back at his daughter.
Felicia picked her up and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Anne giggled, smacking a kiss on Felicia’s face in return.
“Let’s go upstairs. I want to show you the picture I drew.”
“Of course,” Felicia said, smiling.
She glanced up at Max, then carried Anne upstairs.
Downstairs, Amaris and Marian could only stare, disbelief written on their faces. Did she really think she was the lady of the house?
They watched Max as he walked by, not making any move to stop Felicia or Anne. For a second, they couldn’t figure out why he’d let some outsider get so close to the young miss.
Still, there was no denying that Evelynn was stunning. She had a presence, a quiet confidence that made even Andrea seem ordinary by comparison.

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....
