Greg and Luke’s faces shifted at the same time, worry flickering across their features.
Luke’s voice was tight. “Darin’s got some serious ambition.”
Felicia nodded. “He’s after Greenway’s tech. He wants to swallow up Greenway and fold it into Sunlight Tech.”
“Greg, you really need to talk to Brock again.”
Greg pulled out his phone and tried calling Brock, but the call was cut off right away.
He frowned. “I’ll go to his place and talk to him in person.”
Felicia encouraged him. “Good idea. It’s the weekend, so you and Brock have to get this sorted out.”
Brock might have acted rashly, but he’d helped Greg build the company from nothing. That counted for something.
“I know,” Greg said quietly.
Luke stepped forward. “I’ll go with you.”
Greg nodded in agreement.
Heather sat nearby, her worry obvious. She hated how useless she felt.
Greg caught her expression as he walked past and offered a gentle reassurance. “Don’t worry. We’ll figure it out.”
Heather looked up at him and gave a small nod, her eyes earnest. “If you need any investment, I can help. Seriously. I don’t have much besides too much money these days.”
Greg couldn’t help but smile.
He turned to Felicia. “Let Mom know for me, okay?”
“Will do. You two be careful.”
Greg and Luke left together. Felicia watched them go, silently hoping things could be fixed. At least they’d found out before it was too late.
Later that afternoon, Felicia and Heather took the kids out shopping. Staying home would only make them spiral. Savannah joined them, too.
Anne and Yara were perched on a sofa, letting the store staff try necklaces on them. When they heard the adults, Anne hopped down and dashed over, clinging to Felicia’s leg. She looked up, eyes wide. “I want to stick close to Evelynn too!”
Yara ran after her, grabbing Felicia’s other leg. “Me too!”
The whole group burst out laughing.
Felicia stroked their hair, her voice warm. “Okay, okay, now’s not the time for that.”
At that moment, someone at the door called out respectfully, “Mrs. Hawthorne, Mrs. Curtis, Miss Curtis…”
Everyone looked toward the entrance.
The second Felicia saw who walked in, her smile faded away.
Savannah and Heather didn’t look any happier.
Tatiana’s face turned cold when she spotted Felicia with Anne. Yvonne’s gaze lingered on Felicia, her expression complicated and unreadable.

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....
