The old principal just smiled at them. “Alright, you two go ahead.”
Felicia said her goodbyes to the principal and the other staff, then left with Luke. It was obvious to everyone that Felicia was ignoring Max on purpose. They couldn’t tell if she was just too proud for her own good, or if she actually had the guts to stand her ground. What was really strange, though, was that Max didn’t look upset at all. If anything, he seemed to let her get away with it.
As Felicia and Luke walked off, the principal glanced at Max, looking a bit confused. “Are Luke and Felicia about to get married or something?” He honestly couldn’t think of any other reason why Felicia would be so bold with Max.
Max gave a small smile. “I heard Ms. Ross is married, but not to Luke. They’re just friends.” The principal’s eyes went wide in shock.
Felicia and Luke headed over to the school museum. “You know, you’re the only one who dares to talk to him like that,” Luke said with a low laugh. “Anyone else would probably be getting ready for their bankruptcy papers tomorrow.”
Felicia just smiled. “Then I guess that’s my privilege.” Luke laughed, and quickly changed the subject.
They told the director they wanted to look around by themselves. After all these years, the school hadn’t changed much, except for a few new buildings here and there. They wandered into their old classroom. The building was quiet, since most of the students were off at activities. Leaning by a window in the hallway, they started reminiscing, realizing how good those student days really were now that they’d both stepped into the real world.
Max walked right up to Luke. “We haven’t played together in ages. Since we’ve got the time today, how about a couple rounds?” Luke looked at him, a spark of challenge in his eyes. Standing together, the two of them were honestly a sight to behold. They looked a bit alike—Luke had a youthful energy, while Max looked more mature.
“Let’s do it,” Luke agreed.
The students quickly cleared the court, all eyes on the two men. Max took off his coat and walked over to Felicia. She frowned slightly as he stopped in front of her. He held out the coat. “Hold this for me.”

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....
