The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 774

"Then let's put that to the test," Max replied coolly.

Darin locked eyes with him. A heavy silence descended over the room.

"Now isn't the right time for you to reveal your true identity to her either," Max added.

"I'm going to stay here for two days," Darin declared.

"Fine."

Just then, Darin's phone buzzed in his pocket. Pulling it out, he saw the caller ID belonged to Colton. "Hello, Dad."

"It's me," Ava's voice came through the line.

Darin subconsciously sat up straighter. "Ava, is everything alright?"

"Have you seen Felicia?" she asked urgently.

Ava and the rest of the family had suddenly lost contact with Felicia, and they only found out yesterday that Max had taken her all the way to Australia. Greg had merely claimed that she wasn't feeling well and needed to recuperate abroad, purposely hiding the harrowing details.

"Yes," Darin reassured her. "Felicia is doing very well right now. Please don't worry, Ava."

"That's good."

Catching the underlying tension in her voice, Darin pressed further. "Ava, where's my dad?"

"Where is Andrea?" Darin demanded.

Startled by her son's furious, accusatory tone, Yvonne quickly realized why he was calling. "Your sister was beaten up and injured. She's locked herself in her room right now and refuses to come out."

Yvonne had also been at the hospital today, though she had only gone to visit someone else. By the time she heard about the commotion downstairs and rushed over, Colton was already being loaded onto a stretcher and rushed into the emergency resuscitation room. Seeing Ava attacking Andrea like a madwoman, Yvonne had completely lost her temper. Rushing forward, she had slapped Ava hard across the face, unleashing all her pent-up resentment in that single strike.

"Then why did you hit Ava?" Darin pressed coldly.

Hearing her own son vehemently defend an outsider sent a flare of fury surging through Yvonne's chest. "Was I just supposed to stand there and watch your sister get beaten up without doing a thing? Darin, Andrea is your sister! When has she ever had to suffer such humiliation in her entire life?"

Listening to Yvonne's indignant defense, Darin found her logic both pathetic and ridiculous.
