Back at the villa, Felicia headed to the kitchen to make some coffee, then brought a cup out to Luke in the living room.
Greg was on the phone, his voice low and serious. It sounded like Heather was calling.
Once he hung up, Felicia asked, “So, when do you get time off this year?”
Greg rubbed his forehead. “We’ve got too many projects lined up from that old contract. Even though we signed Max’s deal, we still have to finish the previous ones.”
Felicia nodded, then turned to Luke. “What about you?”
Luke sighed. “Pretty much the same. We’ve got a mobile game launching soon, and it’s about to hit the testing phase. I might even have to work through the holiday.”
“Sounds like both of you are swamped.”
Greg leaned back. “You’re on break now, right? Got any plans? You barely took any time off this year. How about taking Anne somewhere for a little vacation? Heather wants to take Yara to the beach—maybe you two can go together.”
Felicia thought about it, then nodded. “I’ll think about it.”
They chatted a bit longer, then Luke said his goodbyes and headed home for some rest.
Upstairs, Felicia glanced at her phone and saw an invite from Heather.
The next day, Felicia went to the hospital to bring Jeremy his lunch.
She took the elevator up, and as soon as the doors slid open, she spotted a young girl waiting there. The girl was striking—tall, poised, her long hair pulled back into a neat bun that showed off her elegant features. There was something so put-together about her, a confidence that came through in the way she stood.
They recognized each other at once. The girl smiled politely. “Hello, Evelynn.”
Felicia stepped out and smiled back. She remembered that after she graduated, Dannie had become one of Michael’s students. During Felicia’s internship on Wall Street, Dannie was there too. They’d kind of been in the same circle.
Despite coming from a wealthy family, Dannie never acted spoiled or entitled. If anything, she was hardworking, humble, and always steady.
Felicia greeted her. “Long time no see. When did you get back?”
Shannon looked touched. She thanked Felicia and took the food from her.
Felicia helped set up the little table over Jeremy’s bed. Jeremy looked much better today, the color back in his cheeks.
“Did you eat already, Felicia?”
“Yeah, I did,” Felicia said, settling onto a stool nearby.
They started chatting, voices soft and easy.
“Heather said she invited you to the beach,” Jeremy mentioned.
Felicia nodded, a little smile on her lips. “I’m still thinking about it.”
Jeremy looked at her kindly. “You’re on break now, right? If you don’t have anything urgent, you should go. It’d be good for you to relax for a while.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max)
Nothing today...
The story starting to feel dragged out. Nothing much is happening anymore and Felicia and Max are getting kinda boring.. it’s just the same cycle over and over again...
I used to like this story but now it draaaaags :( Now it seems like all characters are problematic and toxic (yes, ALL characters). Wish the author will give some warmth/emotion in this story. 700+ chapters and still no highlight, no exciting part, just pure coldness and expressionlessness lol...
Max and felicia really need to figure things out. Either humble max down and get him to respect his wife. Or let felicia be a free woman. Max is so ignorant and egomaniac...
I've reached chapter 104 with a broken heart huhuuhu. This is so heavy, so sad. I know the chapters onwards will be more lighter. Can't wait for the pay back time....
When will this novel get an end It's dragging so much. Just kill max asap. How much should felicia bare. Give her freedom from that max and anne. Anne is so annoying child. I know she wants to patch up her mother and father. But sometimes it's really boring.please finish the novel soon. Everyday we have to check for the chapter updates. For God sake finish it off. How many more chapters are there . You could have make the novel short and sweet. I wish if it was in theatre we could have finish it soon....
