The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 326
“Is this Mr. Foxhall’s?” Felicia asked, holding up the watch.
Earlier, when Darin answered his phone, he had accidentally pulled the old pocket watch out of his pocket. It had slipped onto the carpet at the entrance without a sound. He only realized it was missing when he was almost at the elevator and reached into his pocket.
“It’s mine,” Darin said.
Felicia offered the watch to him. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to. If it’s broken, I can pay for the repairs.”
Darin took the watch from her. It had split into two, and the protective cover over the photo inside was cracked. He studied it for a moment, then tucked it back into his pocket.
“If it was an accident, Evelynn, there’s no need to pay for anything,” he said.
Felicia nodded and let it go.
Darin gave Anthony a quick nod before heading out.
Watching him leave, Anthony leaned over, curiosity in his voice. “He looked pretty stressed about that watch. Must be something special inside.”
Felicia shot him a glance. “If you really want to know, you could go ask him.”
Anthony grinned. “I’m not that nosy.”
They headed for the elevator together.
By nine that night, the dinner was finally over. Felicia went back to The Crestwood Estates. Heather had already taken Yara home.
Anne was still awake, lying in bed with her tablet, video chatting with Max.
The bedroom door opened with a soft click.
Anne perked up, dropped her tablet, and hopped out of bed, running straight for Felicia. “Evelynn, you’re finally home!”
Anne spotted him too. “Daddy!” she squealed, letting go of Felicia’s hand to run across the room.
Max put down his phone and pulled Anne onto his lap. “Did you have fun these past few days?” he asked, his voice gentle.
Anne beamed. “I did!”
“I’m glad to hear that.”
“Now that you’re here, we can all live together,” Anne said, her eyes sparkling. She had always wanted her dad and Evelynn to all be under one roof.
Max smiled and looked over at Felicia, who was still standing by the door.
Felicia straightened her expression and walked over. “What are you doing here?” Her voice was calm, without showing much of her feelings
Max answered, “Just here for some work.”

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....
