The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 478
Darin looked Felicia straight in the eyes. “Evelynn, if Andrea said something out of line, you could’ve just called her out. There was no reason to do that in front of everyone.”
Felicia rolled her eyes. “Honestly, even saying one more word to her feels like a waste of my time. I told you, every time I see her, I’ll slap her again. You should really tell her to stay away from me. And if you have a problem with that, Mr. Foxhall, bring it to me. I’m curious how many deals you can land for her anyway.”
That was the end of it for Felicia. She didn’t want to waste another second.
“Savannah, let’s go,” she said and marched off.
Savannah hurried after her.
Darin just stood there, watching them leave.
“Darin…” Andrea’s voice trembled as she called out to him, clearly on the verge of tears. “You have to help me.”
Darin glanced down at her, his tone gentler now. “Go clean yourself up first.”
Felicia and Savannah took the elevator upstairs.
Savannah was fuming. “It’s so obvious Darin’s pulling strings for Andrea. He just wants her to look good.”
She scoffed. Everyone knew Andrea was all style and no substance. Honestly, she should have slapped her harder.
Felicia hadn’t expected Darin to play it this way. So this was his plan, using Andrea to get back at her. Now, that’s what you call a protective brother.
Meanwhile, in another private room, Darin was still surprised Andrea’s proposal had actually won the CoreTech merger. That was why he’d come to this dinner, to get the full story.
Mr. Torres from CoreTech was full of praise for Andrea. “Miss Curtis, you’re so talented for your age. You’ll be a huge support to your brother, I’m sure. The future is bright for you, haha.”
Andrea smiled politely. “You’re too kind, Mr. Torres. I still have a lot to learn. I’m just grateful you liked my proposal. Thank you for trusting me. Here’s to you.”
She raised her glass for a toast, and Mr. Torres clinked his with hers.
On the way out, Felicia’s phone rang. It was Jeremy.
“Did CoreTech’s people come by today to cancel the deal?”
She hadn’t told him about it, so he must’ve heard from someone else at work.
“I set up another meeting for tomorrow,” Felicia replied.
She already knew how things would probably turn out, but she wasn’t about to quit before the final moment. Even if the odds were slim, she had to try.
“So, did they find a better partner?”
Felicia leveled with him. “Darin’s involved. He’s just doing it to back up Andrea.” Her voice dripped with sarcasm.

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....
