The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 278
Anne perked up right away. “I’m not worried. I got everything ready last night.”
Felicia gave her a warm smile. “You’re amazing, Anne.”
Anne grinned, her little teeth shining. “I want to be the very best kid ever so you will like me even more.”
Felicia’s heart tightened at that. Anne was just so sweet and thoughtful. “Anne, even if you don’t do anything special, I’ll always like you the most.”
Anne beamed. “I like you the most too.”
“What’s your speech about today, Anne?” Max asked from across the table.
Anne turned to look at her dad.
The nanny brought over breakfast.
While munching on a dumpling, Anne suddenly remembered something. She looked at her dad and said, “Daddy, remember how I told you Aunt Andrea was mean to Evelynn? You have to help Evelynn.”
Felicia froze for a second.
She hadn’t expected Anne to actually tell Max about what happened at the Ross family’s house.
Max glanced at Felicia, who kept her head down and quietly finished her breakfast, not giving anything away. He said, “I will take care of it.”
Anne pressed on, “I don’t like Aunt Andrea anymore. She was mean to Evelynn. Can you not see her anymore, Daddy?”
Max’s voice stayed gentle. “I will look into it. Let’s eat now.”
Felicia felt a wave of relief. Anne standing up for her made it much harder for Andrea to get close in the future. As for Max brushing off Anne’s request, Felicia didn’t bother to care.
After breakfast, Max got ready to head to the office.
Felicia didn’t have a car today.
And with her family background, she’d probably take over the family business one day. She was the kind of child who seemed born for big things.
The teacher stood up straight and studied Felicia and Max. At first, she’d thought Evelynn was Anne’s mom, but Anne never called her mom, though sometimes the resemblance between them was hard to miss.
Standing next to Mr. Hawthorne, who was so handsome and distinguished, Evelynn looked like she belonged there. Her calm, mature vibe actually matched him better than Miss Curtis’ did.
It was obvious to the teacher that Anne liked Evelynn best.
But Mr. Hawthorne and Miss Curtis were supposed to be a couple, so who exactly was Evelynn to him? The whole situation seemed complicated. But with wealthy families like theirs, tangled relationships were nothing new. It wasn’t something the teachers could talk about anyway.
She turned to Felicia and Max. “Anne has her speech this morning. If you have time, you’re very welcome to watch.”
Anne brightened immediately. “Yay!” She grabbed Felicia’s hand. “Evelynn, will you stay and listen to my speech? I’ll do such a good job, I promise.”
She didn’t even bother asking her dad. She knew he would stay for her.

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....
