The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 474

Felicia ended the call and went straight back to the conference room, picking up right where she left off. Greg reached out to his uncle. Around ten, a call came in from the front desk.

“Mr. Ross, there’s a man downstairs who says he’s your father. He says his name is Wilfred.”

Greg’s jaw tightened. That was fast. Clearly, they’d been watched for a while. No way some random drifter could pull this off alone.

“Have him wait downstairs.”

Back in the conference room, Felicia’s team was blindsided. The company they’d been preparing to acquire sent people over, suddenly wishing to cancel the merger. Their official explanation was market changes and a shift in strategy.

But Felicia and Savannah had already done their homework. The merger made perfect sense for both companies. It was a win-win. No matter how Felicia tried to talk them out of it, the other side wouldn’t budge. They promised to reimburse all the expenses Roen Capital had already put in.

By noon, the meeting finally ended. Felicia walked the other team out.

As their car pulled away, Savannah shook her head. “I can’t believe anyone else could have come up with a better deal than us.”

They both knew what that meant. The other company had found a new partner—someone they liked better.

Felicia exhaled and turned to Mason. “Check into who they have been meeting with lately.”

Mason nodded. “Will do.”

They headed back inside. Just then, a hotel staffer in uniform walked toward the front desk, holding a thermal lunch bag and a huge bouquet of red roses.

The flowers were hard to miss.

Felicia and Savannah both glanced at the delivery.

Savannah raised a brow. “Who’s trying to impress one of our girls this time?”

Those roses had to cost at least five figures. The packaging and the staffer’s uniform were from one of the city’s top hotels. It wasn’t the first time a rich kid tried to woo someone at their firm.

The staffer stopped at the front desk.

Savannah muttered, “Has Max completely lost it? What’s wrong with him?”

A familiar voice chimed in from behind them. “Hey, who got the fancy roses?”

Anthony and Jeremy walked up, having just come in through security.

“Mr. Milman, Mr. Murray,” Mason greeted them.

They nodded and joined Felicia’s group. Anthony grinned. “Felicia, is someone finally trying to sweep you off your feet?”

Savannah rolled her eyes. “It’s Max. That jerk.”

Anthony’s eyes went wide. “Max? Are you serious? Did the world just turn upside down?”

Jeremy just looked at Felicia, his expression unreadable.
