The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 252
Anne really did have a good dad.
But even so, it couldn’t cover up the fact that he could be pretty awful underneath.
When Anne spotted Evelynn’s car, her whole face lit up and she started waving like crazy.
Felicia pulled up slowly, unbuckled her seatbelt, and stepped out of the car.
“Evelynn!”
Anne ran straight over.
Felicia crouched down and took Anne’s hand. “You look just like a little princess today, Anne.”
Anne beamed. “Daddy picked out my dress.”
Felicia smiled, then stood up and glanced over at Max. Whatever warmth she’d had disappeared in an instant, but for Anne’s sake, she kept her expression calm. “I’m taking Anne with me. She’ll be staying at my place for a couple of days. I’ll take good care of her.”
Max didn’t say a word. He just handed over Anne’s little suitcase and her backpack.
Felicia took them from him.
There were gifts too, all packed up and ready. They were the kind of presents you brought for grownups, so there was no way Anne had picked them out herself.
Felicia was about to say no, but Anne insisted on bringing them along.
“You’re supposed to bring presents when you go to someone’s house,” Anne said, matter-of-fact.
Felicia had no choice but to give in.
She opened the trunk and asked the maid to put the gift bags inside.
“Come on, Anne, let’s get in the car.”
Anne turned back to wave at her dad. “Bye, Daddy.”
“Don’t forget to call me,” Max reminded her.
“I won’t,” Anne promised.
Felicia helped Anne into the passenger seat, then walked around the front of the car and got in herself. She didn’t look back at Max, not even for a second.
The car turned around.
“They’re going to be so happy to meet you,” Felicia said. “They’re at home right now, waiting for you to get there.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
Since Felicia was driving so carefully, it ended up taking almost fifty minutes to get there.
“Alright, Anne, we’re here.”
Colton was out front, leaning on his cane, with Ava holding onto his arm, and Greg standing close by.
As soon as the car pulled up, Colton couldn’t help himself. “She’s finally here,” he said, his voice full of excitement.
Even though he didn’t have much love for the Hawthorne family or Max, he’d always cared about Felicia’s daughter.
She was his granddaughter.
Ava smiled and gave him a gentle nudge. “Don’t get too excited. You don’t want to scare her as soon as she gets out of the car.”

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....
