Meanwhile, Anne had been unable to reach Felicia, so she called Max instead. Max was working late at the office. After hanging up with Anne, he immediately dialed Felicia's number, but the call went entirely unanswered.
He sent her a quick text. "Call me back when you see this."
He sent a quick reassurance to Anne before diving back into his work.
Savannah and Anthony quickly arrived at the crash site. Seeing Jeremy, they were beside themselves with worry. Anthony immediately drove everyone to the nearest hospital.
The doctor performed an initial examination.
Anthony accompanied Jeremy to get X-rays.
Felicia and Savannah waited outside.
Suddenly, a painfully familiar voice echoed down the hall.
"Doctor, please, I am begging you to save him first. I will find a way to gather the money, I promise."
The doctor's tone was entirely strictly professional. "Madam, once the fees are paid in full, we will absolutely treat him. For now, please complete the discharge procedures as soon as possible."
"Doctor, please..."
Felicia looked toward the sound. She saw Mrs. Steele desperately pleading with the doctor, her pride shattered to pieces. It looked as though her hair had turned white in a single afternoon.
Faced with the family's desperation, the doctor remained unmoved. Such scenes were tragically common in the hospital. The little girl stood beside her mother, her eyes already swollen from crying.
Perhaps Felicia's gaze was too intense, because Mrs. Steele suddenly looked her way.
In that instant, as if clutching at her final lifeline, the woman rushed toward Felicia. Before Felicia could react, Mrs. Steele dropped hard to her knees.
Savannah jumped back in shock.
"What are you doing? Please get up," Savannah urged, hastily trying to pull the woman up, but Mrs. Steele refused to budge.
"Mrs. Hawthorne, I am begging you. Please help our family. Even if you just leave us a house to live in, anything. My husband is sick and hospitalized. If he dies, how are we supposed to survive?" Mrs. Steele pleaded frantically.
She pulled her daughter down to kneel beside 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.
