The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 304
Felicia could feel his eyes on her. She looked up, meeting his gaze for a second.
Andrea’s voice cut through the tension. “Evelynn, don’t push it. You think you can just hit anyone you want?”
Felicia let out a cold laugh. “And so what if I did? What I want to know is, why would this lady’s kid go around saying Anne doesn’t have a mother? Who’s been talking behind people’s backs?”
Andrea’s face changed. “What are you talking about?”
Felicia caught the flicker of panic in her eyes and knew she’d guessed right. She smirked. “Alright, then let’s bring Mrs. Stanton’s kid in and ask her directly. Who told her that?”
Andrea glared at Felicia, then snuck a nervous glance at the man beside her.
Max hadn’t said a word the whole time, but his face looked colder now. Andrea’s heart clenched. “Max, I’m sure Anne and Jack just had a misunderstanding. Jack wouldn’t say something like that on purpose.”
The principal glanced at Max, trying to figure out the connection between Evelynn and the Hawthorne family. Was she Anne’s mother? The thought startled her. Looking closer, she could see Anne really did look a little like Evelynn.
Everyone in this room was someone the school couldn’t afford to upset. The principal quickly tried to defuse things. “Mr. Hawthorne, Mrs. Stanton, we should have handled this sooner. We didn’t guide the children well, and that’s on us. We’ll look into this and make sure you both get a proper explanation.”
Her official words shifted all the responsibility to the school. Ms. Corbin was still rubbing her cheek from the slap but apologized right away after hearing the principal speak.
Alyza was still fuming inside, but with the principal stepping in and Max watching, she forced herself to stay quiet. She shot Felicia a dark look. This wasn’t over.
After leaving the office, Max headed for the classroom, the principal and Ms. Corbin following behind. Andrea left with Alyza.
Felicia stood in the hallway, watching Max go. She didn’t follow.
Her phone buzzed. It was Heather.
Max showed up a moment later, Anne in his arms.
“Evelynn!” Anne’s eyes were red as she reached out to Felicia.
Felicia stepped forward, scooping Anne up. “It’s okay now. You’re alright.”
Anne buried her face in Felicia’s shoulder.
Max said. “You’re keeping Anne tonight.”
Felicia didn’t say anything else, just turned away with Anne in her arms and headed for the parking lot.

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....
