The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 760
Felicia learned about a shocking incident.
Barnaby's youngest son had returned from abroad and attempted to attack Max at BlueMarble Investments the previous night.
The boy had been sent overseas in his early teens due to his rebellious, unmanageable behavior and a penchant for getting into trouble. Barnaby had essentially exiled him, supplying him with a massive monthly allowance to party abroad.
Upon learning of his family's bankruptcy, the spoiled youth could not handle the sudden loss of wealth.
Max was unharmed in the attack. Ironically, Andrea had been there to shield him, supposedly sustaining an arm injury in the process.
Listening to the gossip, Felicia expressionlessly continued processing her paperwork.
Savannah scoffed in disgust. "Andrea sure knows how to pick her moments. Is she not supposed to be engaged to Holden? Yet she is still pining after Max. Classic Andrea, always wanting to have her cake and eat it too. Max must be incredibly moved by her sacrifice."
She noticed Felicia's total apathy and sighed. "Well, you are heading to Cloudville soon anyway, Felicia. Let all this mess stay here."
Felicia looked up at Savannah with a faint smile. "I am not bothered at all. Take this file back with you."
She had long since given up any illusions about Max. Handing the document to Savannah, she just wanted to wrap up her remaining work and leave for Cloudville.
Savannah took the file, glancing at Felicia as if she wanted to say more, but ultimately kept quiet.
At that moment, Mason pushed the door open, looking somewhat anxious.
"What is going on?" Savannah asked.
Mason explained the situation.
Mrs. Steele was currently kneeling outside the building, desperately begging to see Felicia.
It was raining outside, but no matter how much people tried to persuade her, she refused to get up.
Felicia frowned deeply.
She knew exactly why the woman was there.
Jeremy gave a subtle nod. "I heard about the incident at BlueMarble yesterday. It all seems quite suspicious to me."
He suspected someone was manipulating Barnaby's son from the shadows.
"It does not concern us anyway," Felicia replied flatly.
Jeremy stared at her intently. "But given how determined Mrs. Steele is to beg you, I doubt she will give up so easily."
Felicia had helped her that night, giving her a sliver of hope. To Mrs. Steele, Max's wife was her only lifeline.
Felicia turned to look out the floor to ceiling windows at the relentless rain, her expression turning somber. She stepped closer to the glass. From the thirtieth floor, she could not make out the scene below.
But she could vividly imagine Mrs. Steele kneeling on the ground, utterly helpless and broken.
She knew that feeling all too well.

Is this coming to an end...
Oh nooo!! Don’t tell me Max will get washed ashore on a remote island then loses all his memory, then falls inlove with the local girl who saves him. Then when he meets Felicia again he won’t recognize her and breaks her heart again. Additional plot twist is that Felicia is pregnant with their 2nd child. Please pleaseee don’t give us this scenario.. LOL!!!...
If Max can be forgiven Darrin can be forgiven. And I do not like this marriage business but if it has to happen I hope after he gets stranded on some remote island alone while Felicia and his family fight over custody she wins and also gets half his estate. Then by time he comes back she's found having and remarried. Lol...
The writer is good. They're making me interested in Max. I won't say like yet....
It seems the only one who hasn't suffered is Max. Even his family fakes anger and disappointment all their own doing so they suffer a little. Everyone else has suffered. Luke and Jeremy unrequited. Felicia has suffered the most from family to unrequited to romance to long suffering Mother. Even baby Anne never had a mother til Felicia suffered then came back only to suffer some more. lol...
Oh no what did Colton do?... I have a bone to pick. When Olisha had to go the hospital why beg for Felicia? When she so loved Max? Seemed like she was in on the setup for Felicia to see a suicide for the 2nd time orchestrated by holden and his brother again. I might drop this series it's becoming endless with no real satisfaction for me. I don't need it to end because it's like a soap opera but if things don't end up making sense, tying up loose storylines it's gonna get old fast for me. Good luck author....
Anne, I think your baby brother is on the way. Thank goodness it doesn't say that Felicia is crying just like the last time but still, there's no willingness on her part. Max! You need to try harder. Make her fall in love with you again....
The writer did a big one with Jeremy's speech to Max. He said almost everything that needed to be said. I have wanted Felicia or someone who knows the past to just tell that whole stinking family what they did and how disgusting they are and what they're doing now how unfair it all is to Felicia. A pity it was only Max but he really needed to hear this (plus more)....
I love the chase of this novel, how you’ve build each of the characters. They almost seem like real. I feel like I know them irl. But however I would like to know what’s max’s pov and what’s going on in his head. I truly believe max’s just a grey character. And also please please please update more!!!...
I was really hoping that Max and Felicia would end up together, but why did Max do that to Felicia? 😭 Is that his way of making Felicia overcome the trauma Holden caused her? I don't think that's helping at all. I just hope Max's character has some redeeming qualities in the coming chapters....
