The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 452
Felicia had been back for quite a while now. Everyone in the Hawthorne family knew who she really was, but still, no one brought up the idea of inviting her over for dinner.
On the phone, Rose said, “It’s really nothing. I just want to invite her to the house for a meal. If she doesn’t want to come, I won’t push her.”
Luke answered, “If it’s just a dinner, that’s fine.”
Rose could hear something in his voice. “Luke, what are you trying to say? Do you think I’d do something to Felicia?”
There was a pause. The silence seemed to stretch.
“Luke?” Rose finally asked.
Luke’s voice was steady but serious. “Mom, I just want you to promise you’ll always be on my side.”
Rose hesitated as the truth started to click. “Luke, be honest with me. Is Felicia the reason you’ve never thought about getting married? Do you have feelings for her?”
His voice dropped lower. “Mom, I really don’t think I could love anyone else but Felicia.”
Rose had sort of guessed it already. “Even if she and Max get divorced, she’s still Anne’s mom. That won’t change.”
“I know, but I can’t just give up on her.”
Rose let out a slow sigh. Her tone turned heavy. “And what if Max never divorces her? Are you really willing to wait that long?”
Luke went quiet for a second. “Felicia will divorce him. I know she will.”
Listening to her son, Rose suddenly didn’t know what else to say. She knew what kind of person he was. Ever since he was little, Luke had his own mind and chased what he wanted, no matter how hard it was. The men in the Hawthorne family were all like that.
Felicia glanced at Savannah. She looked tense. Once upon a time, she and Darin had been engaged, but now they barely spoke.
“Mr. Foxhall,” Felicia replied, her tone all business. She didn’t have a high opinion of Darin.
The guy from Horizon Biotech, Mr. Evans, noticed the greetings and smiled. “So, you all know each other.”
Felicia and Savannah didn’t stick around. They got straight in the elevator and headed upstairs. They were here to sort out some capital management issues, mostly because there had been a weird blip in the company’s market valuation. Roen Capital would handle it fast. Next up, they had to plan out the finances again based on the latest asset data.
Two hours later, the meeting wrapped up.
Savannah couldn’t help but ask, “So, what kind of partnership was Mr. Foxhall talking about with your company today?”

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....
