The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 480
After his call with Andrea, Max rang up Darin.
“I went to dinner with Mr. Torres from CoreTech tonight. I also reviewed Andrea’s proposal. Honestly, there’s nothing wrong with it.”
The plan was airtight, perfectly matching what CoreTech needed right now.
Max’s voice was steady. “Do you really think Andrea did all the work herself?”
Darin replied, “I had someone check. The proposal was Andrea’s idea, and she negotiated the deal personally. She’s been tied up these days, barely even going home.”
Darin ran a company called Keystone Solutions. Andrea had asked to get some hands-on experience there, so he’d set it up for her. Keystone Solutions had tried to land the CoreTech acquisition before, but the deal never went through.
No one expected Andrea to pull it off, let alone leave the other side so satisfied.
“Before this, Roen Capital had the CoreTech acquisition. Evelynn was leading it,” Darin went on.
Max remembered running into Evelynn and Savannah at the hotel earlier. They probably clashed over this deal. From what Evelynn said, it was obvious they thought he was backing Andrea up.
Max’s eyes darkened just a little. “So CoreTech would rather pay the penalty and risk upsetting Roen Capital, just to work with Andrea and Keystone?”
“It’s odd, isn’t it?” Darin admitted.
Andrea might have studied management in college, but she’d always been a pampered heiress. Only recently had she started shadowing Max’s assistant at BlueMarble Investments, and she was now taking some courses at Capital College.
Even if she was a genius, no one could snag a project from true professionals after such a short time.
“Check on the Curtis family,” Max said.
They both knew what was really happening. Andrea was eager to prove herself, but she couldn’t have done this alone. Someone had to be helping her. The Curtis family seemed the most likely.
He didn’t see himself as wrong, either. He’d always acted on his feelings and interests at the time.
Right now, he needed Felicia back in the family. That was what worked for him, so that’s what he was going to do.
“I’m not a mind reader. I can’t see the future.”
“So, do you want in or not?”
Max smiled. “Guess it wouldn’t hurt to make a move.”
He hung up and dialed another number.
“Find out who Miss Curtis has been spending time with lately,” he instructed. “And check on how she’s doing at Capital College.”

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....
