The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 408
Two days later, Jeremy and Felicia were at a symposium at Stanford. The place was packed with big names from the industry. Gavin showed up too. After the event wrapped up, Michael went out of his way to introduce Jeremy to some important people.
Gavin found Felicia just as things were winding down. “Evelynn, how have you been lately?” he asked.
She hadn’t seen him in a while, mostly because her schedule had been nonstop. “Pretty busy,” she said.
Gavin let out a sigh. “I was hoping that since you finally made it to New York, we’d get to hang out a little. Instead, I can barely catch you for five minutes.”
Felicia grinned. “Well, you’re seeing me now, aren’t you?”
He smiled back, then glanced over at Jeremy before lowering his voice. “About the DF Fund stuff, Evelynn, you really shouldn’t get involved. That’s their fight. It’s got nothing to do with you.”
Felicia shook her head. “I’m not involved. Jeremy’s hand is still healing, so I’m just helping him organize some data and analysis, that’s all.”
Gavin nodded in understanding. “Did you finish all the paperwork for the share transfer?”
“Yeah, it’s done.”
Max hadn’t stirred up any trouble, so things went smoothly. Now Northstar Dynamics was officially no longer her concern.
“So, when are you heading home?”
Max had only given her five days, and he’d been dead serious about it. Jeremy wanted her and Luke to get back as soon as possible, and Luke had work waiting on the other side, so they’d booked their flight for three days from now.
Felicia explained her plans to Gavin.
He sighed. “Feels like you just got here. We barely had time to catch up, and now you’re leaving again.”
Felicia couldn’t help laughing. “You really shouldn’t joke about that.”
She’d been in New York for almost a month. Time had flown by.
“Well, since you’re leaving so soon, you have to treat me to dinner tonight. That’s not too much to ask, right?”
Felicia smiled. “Of course not.”
As Max turned to go in, he noticed Felicia and Gavin standing nearby.
Gavin gave him a wave.
Darin and Andrea spotted them too.
The second Andrea saw Felicia, her face fell. Seriously, why did Felicia have to show up here again?
Gavin walked up to greet them, keeping things friendly. “What are the odds? You’re having dinner here too, Max?”
Max looked at Felicia, but she didn’t meet his eyes.
“Darin, it’s been a while,” Gavin said.
Darin shifted his attention from Felicia to Gavin. “Yeah, long time.”
Gavin glanced at Andrea, who was clinging to Max’s arm. He had definitely noticed the frosty glare she’d just aimed at Evelynn.

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....
