The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 778
The corners of Max's lips curled up slightly. He reached out to wipe the remaining tears from her cheeks and softened his voice. "Do not make Anne worry."
Before Felicia could collect her chaotic emotions, Anne's cheerful voice rang out. "Daddy, Mommy." The little girl stopped in her tracks, instantly noticing her mother's red eyes. "Daddy you made Mommy cry." Anne huffed in disapproval. "Mommy, do you want me to help you teach Daddy a lesson?"
Max leaned over and picked up the flower crown that had fallen to the grass. He gently placed it back on Felicia's head before turning to his daughter and patting her little head. "Daddy did not make Mommy cry. Alright, Mommy is tired and needs to go back and rest. It is almost time for dinner anyway."
With that, Max swept Felicia up into his arms, carrying her effortlessly. "Is there anything special you want to eat tonight?" he asked.
Felicia averted her gaze and offered no reply. Max did not push for an answer, simply carrying her toward the house while Anne skipped happily alongside them.
Since dinner was not quite ready, Max brought Felicia back to her room and asked the nanny to help her wash up. He then stepped out into the hallway and closed the door behind him.
As he walked toward the living room, he was met by a furious Darin storming down the stairs. Without a word of warning, Darin closed the distance and drove a merciless punch directly into Max's face. Max did not even try to dodge. He took the brutal blow head on, stumbling back several steps from the sheer force of Darin's strike.
The butler and maids gasped in pure terror.
Max steadied himself and raised a hand to wipe the blood seeping from the corner of his mouth. Darin closed the gap in two massive strides, grabbing Max by the collar with gritted teeth. "Max, what the hell are you doing to my sister?!"
Max met Darin's furious glare with a perfectly calm expression. He reached up, grasping Darin's wrist, and shot back. "Why are you getting so worked up? She is perfectly fine."
Darin tightened his grip on the collar, his breathing heavy with rage. The terrifying aura radiating from him made it impossible for anyone to approach. The butler and staff could only watch in trembling silence, too afraid to intervene.
After a suffocating silence, Darin finally shoved Max away. "Max, I am warning you. You are not allowed to force her again. If you dare touch her, see what happens."
Anne looked around in confusion. "Why isn't Daddy eating with us?"
The butler quickly stepped forward. "He is suddenly feeling unwell, so it is inconvenient for him to dine with you."
Anne's eyes widened in instant worry. "Is Daddy sick?"
Felicia also looked at the butler in confusion, as Max had looked completely fine just moments ago.
Unsure of how to properly explain the bruised face, the butler simply bowed respectfully. "It is nothing serious. Please go ahead and eat, young miss."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max)
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....
