That night, Felicia did not sleep well.
When she woke up the next morning, her head was pounding heavily. She touched her forehead and realized she was actually running a fever. Forcing herself out of bed to wash up, her entire body felt weak and drained. Resting her hands on the edge of the bathroom sink, she stared at her pale reflection in the mirror.
She took a moment to compose herself, then quickly washed her face to wake up.
When she stepped out of the room, she saw Max standing at the door.
Max immediately noticed something was wrong. "Where does it hurt?" he asked.
Felicia did not answer. She turned sideways to step past him, but her footing was unsteady. Before she had even taken two steps, her body swayed to one side. She quickly reached out to brace herself against the wall.
Before she could even catch her breath, she was suddenly lifted into the air.
Felicia's mind snapped to clarity. Staring at the man holding her, she began, "What..."
But she lacked the strength to even put up a struggle.
Max carried her back into the room and gently laid her on the bed. He pressed his hand against her forehead before pulling it away. "You are sick, so don’t try to act tough," he said.
Lying in bed, all the tension drained out of Felicia's body.
Max watched her for a moment, then called the family doctor over to examine her.
Once Anne found out her mother was sick, she immediately ran upstairs.
"Mommy."
Felicia looked at her daughter and offered a comforting smile. "I’m fine. Do not worry," she said, her voice barely more than a whisper.
The doctor took her temperature. It read 102.5 degrees, a dangerously high fever.
The doctor administered some fever reducing treatment to Felicia, then turned to Max. "Sir, we will monitor her for two hours. If the high fever persists, we will need to take her to the hospital. I will stay right here with her."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max)
Nothing today...
The story starting to feel dragged out. Nothing much is happening anymore and Felicia and Max are getting kinda boring.. it’s just the same cycle over and over again...
I used to like this story but now it draaaaags :( Now it seems like all characters are problematic and toxic (yes, ALL characters). Wish the author will give some warmth/emotion in this story. 700+ chapters and still no highlight, no exciting part, just pure coldness and expressionlessness lol...
Max and felicia really need to figure things out. Either humble max down and get him to respect his wife. Or let felicia be a free woman. Max is so ignorant and egomaniac...
I've reached chapter 104 with a broken heart huhuuhu. This is so heavy, so sad. I know the chapters onwards will be more lighter. Can't wait for the pay back time....
When will this novel get an end It's dragging so much. Just kill max asap. How much should felicia bare. Give her freedom from that max and anne. Anne is so annoying child. I know she wants to patch up her mother and father. But sometimes it's really boring.please finish the novel soon. Everyday we have to check for the chapter updates. For God sake finish it off. How many more chapters are there . You could have make the novel short and sweet. I wish if it was in theatre we could have finish it soon....
