The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 609
Felicia handed one box to Greg and another to Luke, a little smirk playing on her lips.
Greg sized up the shopping haul. “That’s a lot of stuff. Stocking up for winter? What did you get for yourself?”
“Oh, I’d never leave myself out,” Felicia said, her eyes sparkling as she tipped her chin up and showed off a gleaming pearl necklace. “Fifty grand well spent, don’t you think?”
“Gorgeous,” Luke said, his voice gentle. “It really suits you.”
She slipped the necklace back into its box and started emptying her suitcase onto the sofa until the cushions were covered in shiny, new purchases.
That night, Luke stayed for dinner with the Ross family.
Once dinner was over, he got ready to head home; he needed to return to the old estate tonight.
Felicia walked him to the door. Just as Luke was turning to leave, she spoke up. “Is your grandfather okay?”
He paused, looking back. “Not really. He’s in the hospital right now for observation. I’ll stop by to see him on my way.”
Felicia nodded, her expression thoughtful. She remembered the time when Old Mr. Hawthorne had nearly passed away... It felt like fate, somehow. After she and Max got married, Brysen had pulled through, and things had been peaceful since.
She let out a quiet sigh. “Drive safe, okay?”
Luke nodded and smiled softly. “You should get inside, it’s cold.”
When his car pulled away, Felicia headed back inside.
Greg was waiting in the living room. “Anne didn’t come home with you?”
“Brysen’s sick, so Max picked her up,” Felicia said.
She hung up before he could respond, tossed the phone aside, turned on the TV, and settled into bed with a movie. Before she knew it, she’d drifted off to sleep.
Around ten the next morning, Felicia was reaching for her phone to call Anne when there was a knock at the door.
“Felicia?” Ava poked her head in. “Max and Anne are downstairs.”
Felicia frowned, putting her phone down and heading out.
When she got to the living room, Max and Anne were waiting. Anne dashed over as soon as she saw Felicia, wrapping her little arms around her mom’s leg.
“Mommy, when did you get back? Why didn’t you come home?” Anne’s eyes were wide with worry.
Felicia smoothed Anne’s hair, her tone gentle. “I was just about to call you, sweetheart.” She glanced up at Max across the room and met his cool, unreadable gaze.

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....
