The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 280
Felicia looked up at him. “What’s up?”
Jeremy kept his eyes on her. “Don’t get too close to Max, even if it’s for Anne.”
She knew exactly what he was getting at. “I get it.”
Felicia and Max barely spoke these days anyway, but she knew it was something to keep in mind.
“Heather said you’re going to see Yara after work?”
Felicia nodded.
“Alright. I’ve got to head out for a bit, but I’ll swing by the office to pick you up later.”
“Okay,” she replied.
After lunch, Jeremy went back to his office. He made a quick call. “Look into the details of Horizon Peak Energy’s takeover for me.”
“On it,” came the answer.
Later that afternoon, Felicia was in the middle of a work discussion with Savannah when her phone buzzed. It was Max calling.
She hadn’t blocked his number, mostly because they still had to talk about Anne from time to time.
Felicia answered but didn’t say anything. Max’s voice came through the line. “You’re picking Anne up from school today.”
Felicia considered it. She decided she’d bring Anne back to the Ross house tonight.
“Okay.”
She hung up right after.
She only spoke two words, but Savannah could tell exactly who had called just by her expression.
“That jerk is still dragging out this divorce,” Savannah grumbled, clearly annoyed.
Felicia set her phone down. “He just wants to stall me.”
Watching Anne and Yara together, Savannah suddenly felt like she wanted a daughter too, someone she could dress up every day and spoil.
Savannah had been through a string of blind dates and a few relationships, but nothing ever lasted.
One night, over drinks, she’d confessed to Felicia that she still liked Darin. She hated him for being so cold, but the more she hated him, the harder it was to let go.
None of the men she’d met over the years could compare to him.
Felicia wasn’t exactly doing better with her own love life, so she didn’t have much advice to give.
Maybe it was because she still had Darin on her mind that Savannah couldn’t move on.
Felicia always thought Darin was complicated, like he had this cloud around him that no one could see through.
How do you marry someone like that?
Sometimes, it just seemed like Savannah and Darin were never meant to be.

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....
