The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 247
Max pulled into the Hawthorne family estate.
“Daddy!” Anne spotted him and sprinted right into his arms.
He scooped her up and held her close. Miranda and Brysen were in the living room, so Max chatted with them for a bit. With Anne around, the whole house felt warmer and more alive.
That night, Max and Anne stayed at the estate.
While the nanny gave Anne her bath, Tatiana found her son. Her voice was sharp. “Why did you let Evelynn take Anne home today? What’s going on in your head?”
Max’s answer was simple. “She’s Felicia.”
Tatiana froze, stunned for a long moment. When she finally spoke, her voice trembled. “What? She’s… Felicia?”
She just couldn’t believe it. Evelynn and the woman from before were nothing alike in her mind.
“And Anne…” Tatiana started to ask something, but stopped. She realized Anne must not know the truth. At least she had enough sense not to push it.
“Now that Felicia’s back, shouldn’t you be sorting out the divorce?” she pressed.
Max’s voice was flat. “Anne has always wanted a mom.”
Since meeting Evelynn, Anne hadn’t asked about her mother again.
Tatiana’s eyes darkened. “She abandoned her own daughter five years ago. Now she can’t even admit who she is. In my opinion, she doesn’t deserve to be Anne’s mother.”
Max glanced at his mother, his tone firm. “Don’t say that in front of Anne.”
Wednesday morning, Felicia took half a day off and headed to Cameron’s law office.
When she arrived, Cameron and his assistant were already waiting. The assistant, Sam, was forty-five and a top divorce lawyer. They exchanged quick hellos and went inside together.
Cameron was already in the conference room. He and Sam got right down to business.
Cameron had all the paperwork showing a five-year separation. It was more than enough to prove the marriage was over.
Felicia didn’t have any solid evidence of Max cheating. Back then, she never thought he’d drag out the divorce this long. Even if she did have proof, she wasn’t sure she’d want to use it.
Five years apart with no contact said plenty.
As for assets, Felicia didn’t want a single dollar. She was ready to walk away with nothing. She wasn’t even asking for custody of Anne. All she wanted was to finally end her marriage to 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....
