Jeremy sat propped up in bed, his laptop balanced on his knees. When Felicia walked in, he looked surprised for a second, then quickly figured out who must have tipped her off.
“Felicia, you’re here.”
She set the bouquet and fruit basket down on the coffee table, then turned to face him. His skin looked pale in the morning light.
“How are you feeling?” she asked.
“Much better,” Jeremy said. “You don’t have to worry.”
Felicia glanced at his laptop and the stack of paperwork. “I’m pretty sure the company won’t collapse if you take a day off.”
Jeremy smiled, taking off his glasses and giving her a look. “Well, I thought you’d be the last person to say that. Weren’t you always the one working through a fever like it was nothing?”
Felicia laughed, unable to help herself. For five years, powering through work and classes even when she was sick had been her routine. Nobody could ever talk her out of it.
They chatted for a while, and Jeremy finally closed his laptop and set the files aside. The weather was too nice to ignore. He’d been stuck in his room since yesterday afternoon and was itching to get outside. Felicia agreed to keep him company.
The hospital grounds were peaceful, with a path lined by tall trees. Leaves rustled in a cool autumn breeze as they strolled together.
“You’re not with Anne today?” Jeremy asked.
“She went to the Hawthorne family’s place,” Felicia replied.
Jeremy nodded, understanding.
They walked back into the room. Darin gave Andrea a few instructions, then left.
When Andrea’s IV finished, she looked at Max. “Max, I want to go for a walk.”
“It’s windy out,” he said gently. “You should stay here and rest, just in case.”
Andrea smiled, touched by his concern. “Alright, I’ll stay.”
Just then, Max’s phone rang. It was a call from home, asking him to come back. He said he’d be there soon.
Andrea looked disappointed that he wouldn’t be staying for lunch, but she didn’t try to stop him. She managed a smile and told him it was fine. When Max promised he’d come by again in the afternoon if he could, she felt a little better.

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. How many more chapters are there . You could have make the novel short and sweet. I wish if it was in theatre we could have finish it soon....
