The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 282
Felicia glanced at Yara and felt relieved. She really did look much better.
Yara went over to Anne and took her hand. “Anne, come here. I want to show you my drawing.”
Heather called out, “Yara, let’s wait until after dinner.”
“Okay,” Yara replied, her voice soft.
Dinner was already waiting for them. Heather had made sure to cook all of Anne’s favorite dishes, knowing she was coming over.
After they ate, Anne and Yara played together in the living room. Anne told Yara about the homework their teacher had assigned that day. Yara always listened to Anne, so she grabbed her notebook and headed off to her room to get started.
Anne was so different around other kids. She acted like a little adult, her words carrying this calm authority that made everyone listen.
Heather watched them with a smile. “It’s so nice. With Anne here to keep an eye on Yara, I can finally relax.”
Felicia nodded. “Anne, go with Yara and help her with her homework.”
“Alright,” Anne said, and the two of them disappeared into the bedroom, closing the door behind them.
Jeremy stayed in the living room for a bit, chatting with Heather and Felicia, before slipping away to his study to get some work done.
Heather and Felicia made themselves comfortable on the couch, watching TV and chatting quietly.
“So you’re with Anne all the time now? Is Max still on a business trip?” Heather asked.
“He’s back,” Felicia replied. “But even when he’s home, I want to spend as much time with Anne as I can.”
Heather let out a little laugh. “She’s got you wrapped around her finger, you know. But honestly, every mom is like that.”
As a mother herself, Heather completely understood. That deep, unbreakable bond with your child... it was something only another mother could truly get.
Felicia just smiled. She couldn’t argue with that.
Right then, her phone buzzed. Ava was calling. Felicia let her know she wouldn’t be going home tonight. She and Anne would stay over, since Yara had everything Anne might need.
Heather watched them go, a sly little smile playing at her lips.
Jeremy caught his sister’s gaze for a second, then looked away and led Felicia into the study.
“Have a seat,” he said.
Felicia sat down in his office chair and pulled up the email. It was about an overseas investment deal.
Jeremy leaned over the desk, one hand resting on the edge as he pointed out a set of numbers on the screen, explaining them to her.
He was so close that he could pick up the soft, elegant scent of her own perfume.
He glanced down and noticed her skin, smooth and clear, her cheeks flawless. Under long, delicate lashes, her eyes were locked on the screen, totally focused as she answered his questions.
She turned her head, catching his gaze without meaning to. Their eyes met, and for a moment, neither of them looked away.

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....
