The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 393
“You know,” Gavin said, “beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But honestly, Evelynn just isn’t into you.” He shot a look at Max and added, “Or you, for that matter.”
Max’s eyes landed on Felicia. He gave a slow, cool smile. “Why don’t we let Evelynn tell us herself what kind of guy she likes?”
Holden glanced at Max. There was no hint that he cared about Evelynn, but something about him felt hard to read.
Felicia looked straight at Max. “Men like Holden or Mr. Hawthorne? They don’t do anything for me.”
Gavin raised his eyebrows at Max, looking smug. “Did you catch that?”
Max’s face stayed perfectly still, not giving anything away.
Holden gave a low laugh. “That’s all right. As long as we like her, that’s good enough.”
Felicia’s smile faded.
Just then, Gavin’s phone buzzed. He checked the screen, then said to people around him, “I’d better keep my distance from these two. I have a couple of friends arriving, so I’m going to meet them. Please excuse me.”
The other men just chuckled. “Go ahead.”
Gavin took Felicia’s hand and led her out of the room.
As they walked away, Felicia couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was still watching her, though she had no idea who it was.
After saying a quick goodbye, Max left as well. Holden caught up to him and asked, “You really find her interesting?”
Max kept his eyes forward, his expression cold. “I don’t like repeating myself.”
Holden studied him for a second, then dropped it.
Outside the estate, Jeremy and Luke waited by the entrance. Gavin called ahead to the gate, and soon a shuttle picked them up and brought them inside.
Gavin, who’d been about to lead Felicia away, paused. He could feel Jeremy’s eyes following her.
Everyone glanced up and saw Holden coming closer.
Gavin squeezed Felicia’s hand. “Evelynn, let’s go.”
Felicia looked back at Jeremy and Luke. “I’ll catch up with you later.”
Jeremy nodded. “Go ahead.”
Felicia followed Gavin, moving away before Holden could reach them.
For most of the night, Gavin hardly let her out of his sight. He introduced her to people, pulled her onto the dance floor, and made it look like he was guarding her from the world.
Holden never appeared in front of her again, and Felicia finally let herself relax a little. She couldn’t find Max anywhere in the ballroom either.

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....
