The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 418
Yvonne tried to pull herself together, offering a small, reassuring smile. “I’m fine. Let’s go,” she said. Rose didn’t press her for more.
Once they were both in the car, Yvonne glanced over. “Was that Luke’s girlfriend just now?”
It made sense that Yvonne didn’t know who Felicia was. Even the Hawthrone family hadn’t recognized her at first.
“No, just a friend of Luke’s,” Rose replied, keeping it simple.
Yvonne looked thoughtful. “Oh. I saw them walking in together and honestly thought they were a couple. They looked good side by side.”
Rose just smiled, letting the comment slide. But Yvonne’s words lingered with her. She worried about Luke’s future all the time. He was almost thirty, and still single. Every time she brought up marriage, Luke would get annoyed. If she asked whether he had someone on his mind, he shut down completely, as if he had no plans to ever settle down.
She thought back to how close Luke and Felicia seemed at the Gilbert family party, and the way he’d looked at her just now. The memory made her frown, and she didn’t want to think about it anymore.
After Luke finished his check-up, they grabbed lunch together. Later, when Luke was back at the office, his phone rang. It was his mom.
“Luke, come home for dinner tonight.”
“I might have to work late, Mom. Is something wrong?” He could already tell she had something on her mind.
Rose sighed. “You’re always working. You should start thinking about your future, you know…”
“Okay, Mom, that’s enough.” Luke cut her off, his tone gentle but firm. “I know what I’m doing. Please don’t push. I’m really busy right now. If there’s nothing else, I need to go.”
He hung up before she could say more.
Heather’s eyes widened. “I only found out later. I told Yara not to talk to Trey about me. How do you know? Did you see Trey? He didn’t do anything, did he?”
Heather didn’t know that Holden was out of prison. Jeremy had kept it from her so she wouldn’t worry.
“I’m fine, really. Nothing happened. But I’m pretty sure Trey still has feelings for you.”
Heather rolled her eyes. “He’s just like his brother. Can’t keep his feelings straight. I don’t want anything from him. He’s not worth it.”
She’d been fooled by Trey for years. Now that she was with Greg, she finally understood what a good man was like.
Felicia wasn’t too worried about Trey coming back. Here, he wouldn’t dare try anything.

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....
