Daniel explained on Luke's behalf, "Mrs. Tate, you misunderstand. This is my younger brother's wife, Luke's sister-in-law."
Hearing this, Mrs. Tate realized her mistake and quickly apologized. "I am so sorry. So she is Max's wife. Why did Max not come?"
"He had some urgent work to handle," Felicia replied. "He might be a little late."
"I see."
Mrs. Tate could not help but study Felicia a bit more closely. When Max announced his marriage, it caused quite a stir in their elite circles. Everyone had been asking about his new wife's background. Rumors claimed she came from an ordinary family and was entirely unworthy of the Hawthorne family. However, they also heard her professional capabilities were outstanding. Seeing her in person now and getting a feel of her graceful figure and elegant aura, it was no wonder she had caught Max's eye.
Mrs. Tate remained very polite to Felicia.
After a brief chat, Kate and Felicia went to sit in a quieter area.
Daniel and Luke went off to greet the other guests. After speaking with two arrivals, Daniel turned to his brother. "Come here for a second."
They took a seat in a relatively secluded corner.
"Did Max ask you to bring her here?" Daniel asked.
Luke gave a vague nod and took a sip of red wine.
Noticing his low spirits, Daniel sighed. "You should know why he asked you to escort her. Luke, do not be so stubborn."
Max wanted everyone to know she was Luke sister-in-law.
"Even if they do not make it to the end, it will never happen between you two."
"I know," Luke said. "You do not need to keep reminding me."
Daniel frowned deeply at his brother's demeanor and let out another sigh. "I hope you truly understand that."
Luke did not reply. He simply raised his glass and downed the rest of his wine in one gulp.

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....
