After saying his piece, Jeremy simply hung up the phone.
Max lowered the phone. His gaze fell upon the screen. Felicia's wallpaper was a photo taken of Anne during her birthday at the island estate in Australia.
He dropped his hand, turned around, and walked back into the room. Placing her phone on the nightstand, he picked up the thermometer to check her temperature again.
The fever had already gone down.
It wasn't until noon that Felicia finally opened her eyes, though her head was still spinning terribly.
"You are awake," the man's voice called out.
Felicia turned her head to look at Max sitting nearby, then silently looked away.
Max had someone bring a light lunch upstairs.
"Get up and eat something first."
Felicia saw no reason to gamble with her own health. She pushed herself up, and Max grabbed a pillow, placing it gently behind her back for support.
Then he handed her a bowl of warm chicken soup.
Felicia finished the soup and ate a little bit of the other food while Max stayed by her side, attending to her.
"I do not want anymore," she said. She really had no appetite right now.
"Eat this bowl of warm custard," Max insisted.
Felicia glanced at the warm custard he offered. She stayed silent for a moment before reaching out to take it, finishing the whole bowl.
Max watched her finish, then took the empty bowl from her hands. "Take your medicine in half an hour. I have some business to attend to at the office. You just stay home and rest well today."
Felicia listened to the man's instructions without offering a response.
Max did not say anything else. He called someone in to clear the dishes and then left the room.

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....
