Felicia fell silent for a brief moment before speaking in a serious tone. "Caroline, I am going to be completely honest with you. I reviewed GeoSmart's proposals and the company's internal situation. In the long run, winning the project from BlueMarble Investments will not solve GeoSmart's current crisis. It might even trigger cash flow issues down the line. If you are willing to trust me, I can draft a comprehensive business plan for GeoSmart free of charge. I promise you it will be far more effective than trying to secure that BlueMarble project."
In the past, whenever she had drafted business plans for corporate clients, her consulting fees had always started in the seven figures.
Hearing the absolute sincerity in Felicia's voice, Caroline understood the gravity of the offer. Even though she knew very little about corporate management, she was well aware that there were countless firms with better qualifications than GeoSmart.
Ultimately, her relationship with Felicia was not exactly deep or profound. The fact that Felicia had not outright rejected her initial request had been enough of a comfort.
"Of course I trust you, Felicia. Please let me know when you have some free time, and we can discuss the details at GeoSmart’s office."
"I will check my work schedule and let you know in advance."
"Sounds perfect."
Caroline knew better than to keep taking up a sick person's time.
"Get lots of rest, Felicia."
"Yeah."
Across town, Max had just wrapped up his business dinner. He slid into the backseat of his car, leaned against the plush leather, and closed his eyes to rest.
Anne's call broke the silence. "Daddy, when are you coming home?"
The dinner was originally supposed to run for another half hour, but because Anne had practically ordered him to come home and take care of her mother, Max had cut the evening short.
"I’m all done with work. On my way back right now."
"Okay."
He ended the call. Just as he was about to set his phone aside, a message notification chimed. He lifted the screen and saw two photos sent from an unknown number.
The moment he saw the images, his expression darkened drastically.
The driver instantly sensed the terrifying drop in temperature within the cabin. He kept his hands steady on the steering wheel and carefully peeked at the man through the rearview mirror.
One look was all it took. The driver immediately lowered his gaze and focused intently on the road ahead.

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.
