The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 763

"It is over," Max said softly.

Felicia stared blankly at the ceiling, her frantic breathing slowly returning to a steady rhythm.

Max pulled his hand back. Sitting on the edge of the bed, he looked down at her. "Do you want to sit up and eat something?"

Felicia remained completely unresponsive. Her eyes were hollow, her face pale, and her spirit utterly broken.

Max tossed the towel into the basin. "Then let us go home."

He reached down, pulled back the covers, and scooped her up into his arms.

Felicia did not react at all. It was as if all the life had been drained from her bones.

Max carried her out of the hospital room.

The nanny grabbed Felicia's bag and hurried after them.

Back at the Oakridge Estate, Max carried Felicia upstairs to their bedroom. He laid her gently on the mattress and pulled the blankets up to her chin. Gazing at her heavily closed eyes, he murmured, "Get some rest."

He turned around and left, closing the door softly behind him.

Inside the silent room, the wind howled violently against the windows.

Max did not go into the office that day. He stayed in his study to handle his work.

Meanwhile, in a suburban villa.

Inside the master bedroom, a doctor carefully changed Holden's bandages. Two young, beautiful maids stepped forward to dress him in a silk robe.

He went downstairs to the dining room.

"Still in the hospital. Her mother is keeping her company. Max really is heartless. She took a knife for him, and he still refuses to stay by her side."

Max answered Jeremy's incoming call on Felicia's phone. "She is not feeling well. She needs to rest at home for a while, so she will not be coming into the office."

"I need to speak with her," Jeremy demanded.

"She is not in any condition to take calls. If you have nothing else to say, I am hanging up."

Without waiting for a reply, Max ended the call.

Listening to the dial tone, Jeremy lowered his phone, his expression darkening.

Savannah stood across from him, looking worried. "Did Felicia find out about what happened?"
