“What are you doing here?”
Max said. “I told you I’d take you skiing, didn’t I? Of course I showed up.”
She had made it so clear that she’d be with Anne these two days, but Max had always done whatever he wanted. Listening to other people just wasn’t his thing.
Still, Andrea had cried so hard earlier, and he hadn’t stayed with her. That was unusual.
“It’s late. Anne needs to go to bed now.”
Anne suddenly looked up. “Evelynn, can Daddy sleep with us tonight?”
Felicia stepped closer, her tone gentle but firm. “No, honey, he can’t.”
Anne saw the serious look on Felicia’s face and quickly quieted down. “Okay.”
“Alright, time to get in bed,” Felicia said.
Anne climbed under the covers and pulled the blanket up herself. She looked up at Felicia with those big, round eyes, like she was hoping for forgiveness for something she’d done wrong.
Felicia’s heart melted a little. She sat on the edge of the bed and tucked Anne in.
Max came over, ruffled Anne’s hair, and kissed her forehead. “See you in the morning, sweetheart.”
“Goodnight, Daddy.”
“Goodnight.”
Max straightened, gave Felicia a quick glance, then walked out of the bedroom.
The next morning, Luke was just about to knock on Felicia’s door when he noticed a familiar figure at the end of the hallway.
He turned and saw Max.
Felicia had told Heather last night that Max had come to the resort. Heather had vented to Greg, and of course Luke found out Max was here.
Max looked over at him.
“Max,” Luke called out. His voice sounded a little stiff.
Max just nodded, not saying anything.
He knocked on Felicia’s door.
Felicia and Anne were just finishing getting ready.
He didn’t bother to hide his distain.
Max just stayed calm, not bothered in the slightest.
Heather noticed him and gave a quick greeting. “Mr. Hawthorne.”
Max nodded. “Hello.”
Heather just smiled politely.
“Uncle Max, you’re here too,” Yara said. Her little voice was sweet and polite.
Max bent down a little to meet her eyes, smiling kindly. “Yes, I came to take Anne skiing.”
“Uncle Max is a really good dad.”
Max smiled at her.
Anne jumped in right away. “My daddy is the best daddy in the world.”
Yara’s eyes dimmed for a second. She looked up at her mom, her face a little sad.

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....
