The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 237
Felicia glared at him, shock and anger swirling in her eyes. She lifted her hand, ready to slap him across the face.
“You’re shameless!”
Before her palm could land, he caught her wrist in a tight grip.
Felicia tried to yank her hand free, but he barely budged. He was just too strong for her. No matter how hard she struggled, it was useless.
“Max, you jerk, let me go!”
He looked down at her, his gaze locked on her furious, tear-bright eyes. Her cheeks were flushed, her lips parted with outrage.
Max’s eyes narrowed. In the next moment, before Felicia could react, his hand slid to the back of her head and he pulled her into a kiss that was hard and overwhelming.
Her eyes flew wide. She felt herself pinned against the cold window, her back pressed tight, her mind spinning. When she finally snapped out of the haze, she tried to fight him off, but he’d already trapped her wrists above her head.
He was like a wall, unmovable, pressing her in.
His kiss grew rougher, almost like he was punishing her. There was no softness in it, just heat and force.
Outside, rain drummed against the glass. Inside, the air was thick, almost stifling.
Felicia felt her strength slipping away.
Just then, the nanny came out of the bathroom with Anne.
Max let Felicia go, his eyes calming down instantly, the heat gone as if it had never been there.
Anne ran over, beaming. “Daddy, Evelynn, were you kissing? I want a kiss too.”
Max crouched down. Felicia turned away, breathing hard, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand, face twisted in disgust.
Max kissed Anne’s forehead.
Anne giggled, standing on tiptoe to kiss her dad’s cheek, her little teeth flashing in a happy smile.
Then she scampered over to Felicia. “Evelynn.”
Felicia dropped to her knees and pulled Anne into her arms. Anne hugged her tight, then planted a kiss on her cheek.
Then Felicia’s phone buzzed. She picked it up from the coffee table and spoke to Anne. “I need to take this call.”
“Okay.”
Felicia walked over to the window and answered. “Hey, Greg.”
“Felicia, why aren’t you home yet?”
“I’m staying out tonight, can’t make it back,” she said.
“Are you by yourself, or with someone?”
“I’m with my daughter.”
“You went to talk to him, didn’t you?” Greg asked.
Felicia made a soft sound of agreement.
“Alright. We’ll talk when you get home.”

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....
