The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 339
After the call, Felicia and Anne spent the night at Heather’s place. The next day was Trenton’s eightieth birthday. Felicia had already given him her gift a few days earlier, back when she visited the Milman family.
Jeremy managed to make it home that afternoon. Felicia noticed right away how tired he looked, like he hadn’t slept in days. Anthony put a hand on his shoulder. “You made it back.”
Jeremy nodded. “You two have been busy too.”
Anthony grinned. “We’ve had it easy. You’re the one running yourself ragged.”
Felicia walked up. “Hi Jeremy.”
He looked at her and nodded, quiet and reserved. “I’m going to check on my grandpa first. We can talk later.”
“Go on,” Anthony said.
Jeremy spent about half an hour with the older relatives. He hadn’t eaten anything since morning, so Shannon had the staff bring him some food. She sat with him while he ate, watching him for a moment before finally asking, “Heather told me there’s a girl you can’t stop thinking about.”
She’d been hoping to set him up with someone while he was home. But Heather had already told her, “Mom, don’t stress about it. Jeremy already fell for someone. He’s waiting for her. You could introduce a thousand girls, he still wouldn’t care.”
Jeremy just glanced at his mother. “Mom, I’ve got things under control. There’s no need to worry.”
Shannon sighed. “Of course I worry. Heather wouldn’t happen to be talking about Ms. Ross, would she?”
Heather hadn’t actually said who it was. But when she brought Felicia over, judging from the way she fussed over her and showered her with compliments in front of everyone, it wasn’t hard to put the pieces together. Shannon watched her son’s reaction and knew she’d guessed right.
“No wonder you don’t care about anyone else. Ms. Ross really is pretty. I heard she works at your company too.”
Jeremy gave a little nod.
“By the way, what’s the latest with Greenway Electrical Services?” Jeremy asked.
Felicia replied, “We can’t change the performance agreement, but Darin agreed to end their deal with Greenway.”
Jeremy nodded. “Sunlight Tech can’t get their hands on Greenway, and that’s what matters. We’ll meet the agreement in two years.”
Felicia agreed.
That night, after the banquet, everyone went outside for a huge fireworks show. Felicia stuck close to Anne, who was absolutely thrilled, eyes wide as the colors lit up the sky. Jeremy stood near them. At one point, his eyes met Felicia’s, just for a second. The fireworks reflected in both their eyes, all bright and dazzling, making the moment feel almost unreal.
Felicia managed a small, awkward smile before glancing away. The connection was broken, but someone nearby snapped a picture, catching that exact instant. The photo made its way around, passing from person to person, until finally it ended up with Max.

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....
