The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 469
Felicia slid her gaze away, landing on Anne. “Let’s talk about it later,” she said.
Max didn’t push. “If you change your mind, just let me know.”
Felicia stayed silent.
“Mom!” Anne’s voice rang out, full of excitement. She dashed over, waving something in her hands. “Mom, look how pretty this is!”
She held a luxurious box high for Felicia to see.
Felicia peeked inside and found a necklace sparkling with sapphires and diamonds, each stone shining with a fire that caught her breath.
She couldn’t help but be dazzled by how beautiful it was.
She’d seen this necklace before, though only in a photo Heather had sent her. That day, Heather was flipping through a jewelry magazine and sent her the picture right away. Felicia had been just as stunned the first time she saw it. That image had stuck with her ever since.
The price was unforgettable too—thirty million dollars. It was a one-of-a-kind Kashmir sapphire piece, made over two years by a top master jeweler. There was nothing else like it in the world.
Seeing it now, up close, was even more stunning than she’d imagined.
Heather had tried to buy it once, but it was already spoken for.
Felicia never expected to see it in real life, much less right in front of her.
Max watched the way her eyes changed and a small smile played at his lips. “Do you like it?”
Felicia pulled herself together and watched him, but before she could say anything, Anne bounced on her toes. “Let me put it on you, Mom!”
Felicia took the velvet box and shut it gently. “That’s enough, Anne. I’m not wearing it. It’s far too expensive. Your father can keep it.”
Anne pouted. “Just for a second, Mom. Please?”
Felicia only smiled and didn’t answer. “Anne, go upstairs for a bit. I need to talk to your dad.”
Anne glanced hopefully at Max.
Once she was sure Anne was gone, Max spoke up. “It’s a gift for you. What you do with it is up to you. You can give it away or sell it if you want. But it’s yours.”
Felicia looked away, her eyes heavy. “Why are you doing this, Max?”
He answered quietly. “I just want to make things right.”
Felicia felt like his words had knocked the air out of her. For a second, she wondered if she’d heard him wrong. It didn’t sound like something he would ever say.
“If you really want to make it right, divorce me. Stay away from me.”
His face didn’t change. “Go upstairs and be with Anne. Don’t let her worry.”
“Max!” she called after him.
He just gave her a faint smile, turned, and walked out the door.
Felicia stood there, frozen, watching him leave.

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....
