Felicia nodded.
“Does Anne suspect anything about you?” Colton asked.
Felicia shook her head softly. “She’s still too young. She doesn’t really understand yet.”
Anne could sense that things weren’t right between her and her dad, but she didn’t get all the complicated stuff between adults. She didn’t know Felicia was her mother, but she wanted her to be.
At dinner, Greg still hadn’t come home.
Felicia asked, “Is Greg not coming back for dinner tonight?”
Ava answered, “He’s busy at work today. He has to stay late. Let’s just eat.”
“Alright.”
Since Anne had napped for so long in the afternoon, she didn’t get tired until ten. Before bed, she video called Max.
Felicia went downstairs to get herself a glass of milk and saw Greg just getting home. “Greg, you’re only just back? Was work that busy today?”
Greg let out a tired sound. “Yeah, had some stuff come up. Heather told me Yara and Anne got into a fight at school. Is Anne alright?”
Anne was Max’s daughter, after all. There was no way she’d let herself get bullied.
Felicia and Heather watched the kids playing in the yard. Seeing Anne so happy made Felicia’s heart feel warm.
Heather said, “I was going to have Jeremy drive me over today, but something happened at work for him. It’s something about BlueMarble Investments. I asked, but he just told me I wouldn’t get it. You know this stuff, Felicia. Why don’t you give him a call?”
Felicia started to worry too. Jeremy hadn’t mentioned anything about it yesterday. She pulled out her phone and called him. He picked up right away.
“Hi, Heather said there’s some trouble at your company. What’s going on?”

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....
