Max shadowed her closely, ready to catch her if she fell. Felicia managed to walk a short distance without stumbling. A joyful smile bloomed across her face, and as she turned her head, her gaze crashed straight into Max’s profound, dark eyes. Perhaps it was the warm light of the setting sun, but he looked unusually gentle in that moment.
"There's no need to rush," he murmured. "Take your time."
Felicia looked away and gave a quiet hum of agreement. "It's getting dark. Let's head back."
Max scooped her up into his arms and carried her back to the wheelchair. After settling her in, he crouched down and began brushing the sand off the soles of her feet.
"You..." Felicia started, feeling a tickle on her soles. She tried to pull her foot back, but her legs still lacked strength, and Max’s grip on her ankle was firm.
Anne crouched down beside him, using the hem of her little skirt to help wipe her mother's feet.
"Anne, your dress is getting dirty," Felicia hurriedly protested.
Anne just looked up at her mother. "Daddy will buy me a new dress."
Once Max had slipped Felicia's shoes back on, he picked Anne up and carried her to the water's edge to rinse her tiny feet. Suddenly feeling playful, Anne splashed her feet against the water, erupting into a fit of giggles.
Max held her up and dipped her up and down over the waves a couple of times. "Alright, playtime is over," he chuckled, setting her down and letting her wipe her wet feet dry on her pants.
Sitting in the wheelchair, Felicia watched the father and daughter share the tender moment.
Max carried Anne back, slipped her shoes on, and then began pushing the wheelchair. Anne walked alongside them, her small hand resting on the armrest. By the time they took a golf cart back to the manor, the sky had completely darkened.

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. How many more chapters are there . You could have make the novel short and sweet. I wish if it was in theatre we could have finish it soon....
