The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 414
Holden got to his feet, slid his hands into his pockets, and strode forward. He stopped in front of them. “It’s my fault. I apologize to your cousin. I’m sorry.”
Luke clenched his fists, glaring at him.
“But he hit my brother last time, so I guess we’re even.”
“Even?” Max’s voice was cold and sharp. “There’s no such thing as even with me.”
Holden’s eyes lost their easy confidence. “So what are you going to do, Max?”
The words had barely left his mouth when Max’s fist connected with Holden’s jaw. The punch landed hard. Holden crashed to the ground.
Everyone froze, too stunned to move.
Luke stared in shock, trying to figure out what Max was thinking.
Felicia jumped at the sudden violence. Max was always so calm, so in control. She’d never seen him lose it in public. Maybe he did it to protect Luke. Maybe for Andrea. Andrea had just cried her heart out. He had to do something.
Andrea couldn’t believe what she’d just witnessed. She’d never seen Max so fierce. Her heart pounded in her chest. He’d always been gentle with her, but he’d never stood up for her like this. There was something wild and magnetic about him in that moment, something she’d always longed for. She almost wished that punch had been for her.
But it wasn’t. It was for Luke. Luke was family. Hurting him was like insulting Max himself.
Holden’s bodyguards stepped up, but he waved them off. They helped him up anyway.
He wiped the blood from his lip, shot Max a crooked grin. “So, are we even now?”
Max’s eyes were pitch black and icy. “Now we’re even.”
Andrea hurried over, worry all over her face. “Max!”
“I’m fine.”
Felicia glared at them both, her eyes icy cold.
Max turned his gaze on Felicia too.
“I don’t care about your card. I don’t care if she wants to use it or not. Just don’t show it off in front of me.”
But the card was already gone. In the chaos, it must have slipped to the floor. Felicia glanced down and spotted the black card lying there.
Max noticed too.
Andrea shot Felicia a furious glare.
The store manager, quick on the uptake, hurried over, picked up the card, wiped it clean, and handed it back to Max.
Holden let out a mocking laugh. “Your girl just said Evelynn used to be fat, ugly, and desperate enough to drug a man to get him into bed. Is that true?”

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....
