The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 517
Max was even more relentless than Trey. He wanted her to give in completely, to come home and be the perfect wife and mother again. He said he’d pay any price for that, but how could she just cave so easily? If she did, what would the last five years of struggle even mean?
Jeremy noticed something was off with Felicia. “Hey, are you okay?”
She snapped out of it, gave a small shake of her head, and managed a quick smile. “It’s nothing. I was just thinking—Heather said she’s taking Yara back to Northwick. When are they leaving?”
“Heather already got permission from Yara’s teacher. They’re heading back tomorrow,” Jeremy said.
Felicia nodded. “Make sure you keep a close eye on how much time Yara spends with Trey.”
As they talked, Felicia glanced up and noticed two men coming in. It was Max and Darin.
Max spotted Felicia right away and made a beeline toward her. Darin, meanwhile, caught sight of Savannah across the room.
Max walked over, and Savannah, almost without thinking, looked past him straight at Darin. Their eyes met for just a second.
Darin offered Savannah a polite nod and the faintest smile.
She quickly looked away.
Chris, sitting with Savannah, picked up on her mood right away. “Are you alright?”
Savannah pulled herself together. “Yeah, I’m fine. Sorry, I just need to use the restroom.”
“Sure.”
She stood, asked a server for directions, and headed toward the restroom. As she walked by, she passed Darin, but they didn’t say a word. It was as if they were total strangers.
Max stopped at Felicia’s table and saw Jeremy. He greeted him, all polite and formal. “Mr. Milman.”
Jeremy barely glanced up, just giving a curt nod.
Felicia noticed Savannah had left and leaned over to Jeremy. “I’ll go check on Savannah.”
“Savannah,” Felicia said, coming over.
Savannah was at the sink, washing her hands. Felicia handed her a paper towel.
“Thanks,” Savannah said, taking it and tossing it in the trash.
“So, what do you think of him?” Felicia asked.
Savannah shrugged. “He seems considerate. He’s easy to talk to, and honestly, he looks better in person than in his pictures.”
Felicia listened, but it was clear Savannah’s compliments were just surface-level. None of it really meant anything to her.
It was just their luck to run into Darin and Max today. Standing Chris next to Darin made the difference even more obvious. Some people just leave an impression you never really shake.
Felicia couldn’t help herself. “Savannah, when you and Darin were together, did you really think he loved you?”

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....
