The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 442
Cian messaged again. [So, what’s going on with her and Jeremy? Are they dating or what?]
Max replied, [If you have this much time to gossip, maybe put it to better use.]
Cian shot back, [Relax, I just asked a question! What’s up with you?]
Max didn’t bother replying.
“Daddy...” Anne mumbled in her sleep.
Max set his phone aside and gently tucked the blanket around her shoulders. “Are you okay, sweetheart?”
“Daddy, you have to wake me up early, promise.”
He smiled and softly patted her back. “I will. Now go back to sleep.”
That night, a local photographer posted a picture on social media. The shot of Felicia and Jeremy blew up, bringing a flood of attention to the blogger. Some people started accusing the blogger of taking photos without permission, saying it was an invasion of privacy. But with all the new followers and buzz, the blogger just ignored the complaints.
It didn’t take long for someone to recognize Felicia. She was the anchor from the business news channel, and there had been rumors online about her mingling with a bunch of high-profile finance guys. Even though those rumors were cleared up and the person who started it apologized, there were always people who loved a scandal, always convinced the worst was true. Online, it seemed like being pretty was a crime all by itself.
Soon, people started digging for more dirt on Felicia, filling the comments with rude insults and jealous speculation. In just a few hours, strangers acted like Felicia had done something unforgivable. The comment section went from a couple of people admiring the scenery to a mess of judgment and hate.
Right when things were reaching a fever pitch, the blogger’s account was suddenly suspended. It was like none of it ever happened.
Heather had seen the post as she scrolled through her feed. But when she tried to click on it, the account was already gone. She frowned, confused. She could have sworn she saw a photo of Jeremy and Felicia.
Felicia didn’t see any of it. She was too tired to care about her phone and went to bed early that night.
Felicia lay there a few more minutes before reaching over to turn on the lamp. The clock said it was almost six. She pushed off the covers and shuffled into the bathroom to wash her face. The splash of cold water finally woke her up.
She got dressed, pulled on her hat and scarf, and just as she was about to leave, someone knocked at her door. She opened it to see Max and Anne waiting outside.
“Evelynn, I’ve been up since early.”
Felicia bent down and ruffled Anne’s hair, smiling. “You’re such a good girl, Anne.”
Max gestured toward the hallway. “Let’s go get some breakfast.”
Something about his voice made Felicia pause. She glanced up at him, thinking about how he’d called her earlier. He used to sound so distant, always giving orders. Now, he felt different. Softer. Almost like he cared.

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....
