"Furthermore, two people being together means facing difficulties as a team," Felicia continued. "That is the only way a relationship lasts. If you back away at the slightest sign of trouble, there is no point in talking about the future."
Heather looked at Felicia and offered a small, tight smile. "You are absolutely right, Felicia. It is always so much easier to be clearheaded and rational when you are looking at someone else's relationship."
Hearing this, Felicia withdrew her hand, a trace of helplessness flashing in her eyes. "Those involved are blind, while the bystanders see clearly. It is an ancient truth."
"So what exactly is the situation with you and Max right now?" Heather asked.
Felicia restarted the engine and merged the car back into the flow of traffic. Her voice dropped low. "I don't even know how to explain it."
It would be a lie to say she felt nothing when she saw Dannie. There was no way Max couldn't find out who the real instigator had been, yet Dannie was still working right by his side. All his talk about respecting her felt more like he was just trying to humiliate her.
Heather knew that Felicia was actually having a much harder time than she was. At the very least, her own divorce was already finalized.
"You haven't had dinner yet, have you? Come home with me to eat. My mom definitely cooked a feast tonight," Felicia offered.
Heather suddenly hesitated.
Just then, Felicia received a call from Greg.
"Hey, Greg," she answered.
"Felicia, Mom said you're coming home for dinner tonight?" he asked.
"Yes, why?"
"Ask Heather if she wants to come along," he suggested.
Felicia chuckled. "Sure thing."
She hung up the phone and looked over at Heather, a bright smile curving her lips. "Are you ready to go now?"
Heather smiled back and nodded. She then made a quick call to her nanny, reminding her to take good care of Yara.
Felicia drove straight back to the Ross family estate. Greg had come home early that day. When they saw each other, Heather suddenly became incredibly shy and awkward.
Greg walked over to her and asked softly, "Would you like to go for a walk?"
Hearing only silence on the line, the nanny called out, "Ms. Ross."
Felicia snapped back to reality. "Put Anne on the phone, please."
Anne was soon on the line. "Mommy, what time are you getting off work today?"
"I came back to my family's home today," Felicia explained gently. "I won't be able to stay with you tonight, sweetie."
Anne let out a disappointed sound. "Why didn't you bring me to Grandpa's house?"
"I had an emergency at the last minute and didn't have time to pick you up. I'll bring you along next time."
"Okay then. But you have to come home tomorrow. I need to see you every single day."
"I promise."
After chatting with Anne for a few more minutes, Felicia finally hung up the phone.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max)
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....
