The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 675

Greg and Felicia watched as Max stepped out of the car.

Max closed the door, his gaze landing on Felicia. He walked toward them and asked, “Have you had breakfast?”

Felicia looked up at him.

When Anne saw her father, she broke into a run and threw herself at him. “Daddy!”

Max strode forward, bent down, and scooped Anne into his arms. He stroked her little head, his eyes filled with gentle affection. “Have you been a good girl and listened to Mommy?”

Anne tilted her head up. “Of course I listen to Mommy. I’m the best-behaved girl ever.”

Max ruffled her hair again. “Alright, say goodbye to Grandpa Colton and Grandma Ava. It’s time for school.”

Anne turned to look at Colton and the others, waving her hand.

“We’ll be going then,” Max said, his attitude polite and gentle, devoid of its usual overbearing arrogance.

Colton looked at him, his expression still sour. But with Anne there, he just gave a slight nod in acknowledgment.

Max set Anne down. She took her father’s hand, then reached for her mother’s. “Can Daddy and Mommy take me to school together today?”

Felicia’s voice softened as she spoke to Anne. “Let Daddy take you to school. I have to go to work.”

“You should probably stay away from the office for now,” Max said. “There are reporters waiting at Roen Capital. Just take a few days off and rest at home.”

Felicia frowned at him.

She didn’t know the full situation. After the explosion last night, even if the public narrative was suppressed, things couldn’t have improved much.

Anne started swinging her mother's hands back and forth. “If Mommy isn’t working, then she can take me to school.”

“It’s probably not just me they’re targeting,” Felicia replied.

After all, she wasn't the only one affected. Not just Jeremy, but Max and Darin were also entangled in this mess.

Because of that, she couldn’t be sure who was behind it. It was also highly possible that several different factions were stirring up trouble at the same time. There were certainly people who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to embarrass BlueMarble Investments and Roen Capital. The list of people wanting revenge on both firms was by no means short.

“Jeremy should be here soon,” Heather said. “Felicia, are you going to the office now?”

Felicia nodded. She had to go back to the company to get a clear picture of the situation. She would just have to avoid the reporters.

After saying goodbye to Heather, Felicia got into Max’s car.

The car pulled away smoothly.

Felicia didn't bring up last night’s online scandal. Instead, she asked, “What do you mean by giving up your investment share in Heathview? I told you, I don't need that. By acting on your own like this, do you really think you’re making it up to me? Do you think I’ll be grateful?”
