The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 529
“But Heather’s ex-husband is still in the Capital, right?”
Heather had been the one to tell Greg about Trey. She didn’t want him to get the wrong idea or think she was still hung up on her ex. Things had been easy enough before Trey showed up, but now Heather couldn’t help but worry. Would Greg be bothered by the fact that she was divorced and raising a kid on her own? The nerves had her texting Felicia nonstop. It was Felicia who finally suggested she just be up front and tell Greg about Trey coming to the Capital.
Greg was always busy with work. Most of the time, Heather had to be the one to reach out, but he always replied as soon as he saw her messages. The night before she was supposed to fly back to Northwick with Yara, they had dinner together. Greg’s attitude was completely chill, not a hint of judgment or awkwardness, and that was the first time Heather felt like she could finally relax.
“I’m not really sure,” she said.
Greg nodded and didn’t press her for more.
Felicia hugged a pillow, looking a little worried. “Still, the way Trey’s acting, it doesn’t seem like he’s over Heather.”
Trey and Holden were both a little unhinged. Felicia honestly worried about what Trey might do if he ever found out Heather liked someone else.
“Even if he isn’t over her, they’re divorced. He can’t force Heather back into anything. Plus, Heather has Jeremy there. I don’t think Trey would dare pull any crazy moves.”
“Yeah, you’re right.”
It was around eight when Max showed up at the villa. Felicia let him know she had plans that night. Max didn’t ask questions, just told her, “Don’t stay out too late.” Then he left with Anne.
As their car pulled out of the neighborhood, Luke’s car pulled in.
Felicia didn’t get home to Oakridge Estate until after midnight. The living room lights were still on. Max was on the sofa, watching TV. When he saw her, he stood up and walked over.
“You’re back. Are you hungry? Want something to eat?”
“I’m not hungry,” Felicia said.
He nodded. “It’s late. Go get ready for bed.”
The next morning, Anne was up early, excited for the first day of the new year. She couldn’t wait to wear her special outfit. The custom New Year’s dress Max had ordered for her had arrived the day before, and he’d even gotten Felicia a matching one in the same color.
Felicia had no idea he’d planned all this. When the stylist and makeup artist showed up at eight, she looked at Max, surprised.
Max just smiled. “First day of the year. We should celebrate it properly.”
Anne grinned. “Mommy has to be the prettiest today!”
“Go change. I’ll help Anne get ready,” Max said.
Felicia didn’t argue.
Outside the West Hill Residence, a Bentley was parked early in the morning. Darin’s father had called yesterday, asking him to come over for a meal. Darin had woken up early, couldn’t get back to sleep, so he just drove over.

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....
