The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 646
Colt grinned. “Evelynn, you’ve worked hard today. You should get some rest.”
“Thanks,” she replied.
Felicia said goodbye to Jeremy.
Max chatted quietly with Darin.
Soon, Felicia and Max slipped out of the ballroom together.
When they reached the elevator, Max reached for her bag and purse. “Here, let me take those.”
Before Felicia could react, he already had them. She glanced at him, a bit surprised.
The elevator doors slid open.
“Come on,” Max said.
Felicia looked away, not interested in a fuss. She stepped inside. Max followed, silent.
They rode down in the quiet.
Later, in the car on the way home, Max asked her a few things about the event.
Felicia answered, just surface-level work talk.
After that, neither of them said much. The quiet stretched out between them.
Forty minutes later, the Rolls-Royce rolled into the underground garage at Oakridge Estate.
Upstairs, Anne was still jet-lagged from the flight. She’d slept the whole way, and now she was curled up on her bed, playing with a stuffed animal, humming softly to herself.
The door swung open.
Anne looked up. As soon as she spotted her mom, her eyes lit up and she scrambled to her feet. “Mommy!”
Felicia hurried over.
Anne tried to bounce across the mattress, but her foot slipped and she landed with a soft thud.
Felicia reached out without thinking. “Careful, sweetheart.”
Anne quickly got back up and leapt straight into her mother’s arms.
That caught Felicia off guard for just a second. But she recovered quickly, her smile never fading. “Thank you, Anne.”
“You have to thank Daddy, too.”
Felicia ruffled Anne’s hair, setting the little box aside. “I will. Come on, it’s late. Time for bed.”
Anne flopped back onto her pillow, ready to settle down. “Okay.”
That night, Felicia stayed with Anne in her room. Anne had been running around the island every day during their trip, and now she had gotten a little sun-kissed.
For the last couple of days of break, all she wanted was to stay home with Felicia, no more adventures, just quiet time together.
Anne insisted Felicia wear the bracelet. Felicia slipped it on without protest.
“Daddy, look!” Anne called out. “Doesn’t Mommy look so pretty wearing it?”
Max came down the stairs to join them. He wore soft, comfy clothes and his normally neat, businesslike look was gone, replaced with something gentler. The way he carried himself felt warmer, more relaxed.
He glanced at Felicia’s wrist, smiling. “She looks beautiful.”
Anne looked to her mother. “Mommy, when’s your birthday?”

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....
