Felicia didn’t say a word.
Miranda watched her in silence. There was a calmness to her voice, but it pressed down all the same. “I want to know what you’re really thinking about you and Max.”
Felicia met her gaze. “Honestly, I’m surprised you’d ask for my opinion, Mrs. Hawthorne. Are you just making conversation, or is there something you’ve already decided?”
She understood exactly where she stood. To Miranda, whatever she thought barely mattered.
Miranda’s eyes seemed even darker, weighing heavy with age and authority. “I can’t step into your business with Max anymore, as his grandmother. But when it comes to the Lisbon family… Felicia, isn’t it true you wanted to see how Max would handle it?”
Felicia looked right at her. Clearly, everything about what happened with the Folker family was already in Miranda’s hands.
It would be impossible for a woman in her position to miss anything, especially when it came to someone’s true intentions.
Felicia didn’t bother to deny it. “That’s right. The second I recognized Carol, I wanted to see what Max would do, right in front of me. Whether he’d be willing to go against the Lisbon family to save our marriage. Turns out, I overestimated myself, and underestimated Max.”
She was sure Max saw through her. But he was the kind of man who would never let someone else pull his strings. He always had to be the one in control, the one giving orders.
His ego was untouchable. Nothing and nobody would ever change that.
If he really had done something about Carol back then, maybe she would’ve considered staying with him, for Anne’s sake. But life didn’t work with maybes.
