How did he just happen to run into her? Was that whole thing about going out to make a phone call just an excuse to find Felicia? The more Andrea thought about it, the angrier she got. A low ache of worry twisted in her chest. Max hadn’t reached out to her the whole night. She tossed and turned, unable to shake the unease. Even the next morning, there was still nothing from him. Finally, she couldn’t take it anymore and called him herself.
He picked up.
“Andrea, you really crossed the line this time.”
His voice was stern. The unfairness of it all hit her hard and she snapped. “Max, is it because she’s pretty now? Is that it? Do you have a thing for her? She just got plastic surgery so she could come back and steal you away.”
Andrea had always believed she was the most dazzling woman in their world, but seeing Felicia now, all her confidence started to crack. Felicia used to be so awkward, so overweight, and now she’d returned completely different. Of course she just had to show up right in front of Max. She was obviously up to something.
Max didn’t even try to comfort her. That made everything hurt even more.
Andrea kept replaying their conversation in her head, and her sense of injustice just grew.
“Andrea, tell me what happened,” Yvonne asked, her voice tight with worry. “Is it about Evelynn?”
Andrea bit her lip and nodded. “Max is actually taking her side now. Mom, I really don’t want to wait anymore.”
When it was time for the parade, the crowd was massive. Max lifted Anne up onto his shoulders so she could see. Felicia hadn’t stayed close, and people started pressing in around her. Just as she tried to move away, a strong hand wrapped around her waist. Before she could react, she was pulled into a firm, solid embrace, the air around her filled with the faint scent of expensive cologne.
Felicia was startled. She looked up straight into his deep, dark eyes. Embarrassed, she dropped her gaze, struggling to pull away. But people crowded in on all sides, and there was nowhere to go.
He let go of her waist and instead took hold of her wrist, his grip gentle but unyielding.
“Stay here,” he said quietly.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max)
Nothing today...
The story starting to feel dragged out. Nothing much is happening anymore and Felicia and Max are getting kinda boring.. it’s just the same cycle over and over again...
I used to like this story but now it draaaaags :( Now it seems like all characters are problematic and toxic (yes, ALL characters). Wish the author will give some warmth/emotion in this story. 700+ chapters and still no highlight, no exciting part, just pure coldness and expressionlessness lol...
Max and felicia really need to figure things out. Either humble max down and get him to respect his wife. Or let felicia be a free woman. Max is so ignorant and egomaniac...
I've reached chapter 104 with a broken heart huhuuhu. This is so heavy, so sad. I know the chapters onwards will be more lighter. Can't wait for the pay back time....
When will this novel get an end It's dragging so much. Just kill max asap. How much should felicia bare. Give her freedom from that max and anne. Anne is so annoying child. I know she wants to patch up her mother and father. But sometimes it's really boring.please finish the novel soon. Everyday we have to check for the chapter updates. For God sake finish it off.
