The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 65
The concert was just starting, but Savannah’s good mood had already disappeared. At least Jaron, her favorite tenor, was opening the show. The music was on another level. It was honestly breathtaking.
Felicia listened, trying to let the music pull her away from thoughts of Max. She tried to seem calm, but inside, she wasn’t even close. Then the next performer walked out onto the stage.
Andrea.
She wore a pale lavender strapless gown that sparkled with crystals all over the full skirt. Her hair was styled up, elegant and tidy, and her face looked so bright and beautiful it was almost unreal. From where Felicia sat, she could see Max’s profile. He was watching the stage, eyes glued to Andrea, completely focused on her.
The moment Andrea appeared, the whole audience gasped and started whispering. People raised their phones, snapping photos like she was a celebrity. No wonder Max and Darin were here, and all those important guests too. They were clearly here to support Andrea.
Savannah’s face didn’t look any better than Felicia’s. She leaned over and whispered, “Do you want to leave?”
But they were right in the middle of the row, surrounded on both sides. It would’ve been impossible to get out quietly. Felicia just shook her head. “Let’s wait until it’s finished.”
On stage, Andrea sat at the piano. Her slender fingers rested on the keys, and as the orchestra joined in, the hall filled with this incredible, rich sound. The music was gorgeous, like a dream. Andrea played beautifully, obviously gifted. But Felicia couldn’t relax and listen like she used to.
Suddenly, Savannah nudged her and handed over a wireless earbud. “Want to block this out?”
Felicia smiled, a little amused, and shook her head. “I’m good.”
Andrea’s performance went on for a few more minutes before finally coming to an end. The applause was thunderous. In the front row, a man was clapping, his smile warm and full of praise. Felicia and Savannah were probably the only ones in the hall not cheering.
Felicia nodded. “Okay.”
Savannah went out the door, and Felicia sat on a bench in the lobby, waiting. People were still trickling out of the concert hall.
A moment later, Felicia spotted Darin walking toward the exit with a group of people. Max and Andrea weren’t with them. They were probably off together somewhere.
As Darin glanced over, his eyes met Felicia’s for just a second. She quickly looked away, focusing on the rain outside. Darin dropped his gaze too.
Outside, three cars were already waiting for the group. They said their goodbyes and got in. Darin watched as the cars pulled away, but he didn’t get in. Instead, he turned to look back at Felicia. She just sat there quietly, looking calm and peaceful, even though everything felt different now.

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....
