"Daddy," Anne chirped cheerfully.
Felicia lifted her gaze to look at the man approaching the bed. "You are awake," Max said softly.
Felicia remained exceptionally quiet, offering no response.
Max stepped closer. "You slept for a very long time. Are you feeling dizzy at all?"
Felicia instinctively rubbed her temples. "Just a little dizzy."
"Then let's get you up," he suggested calmly. "It is just about time for lunch."
Felicia hummed a soft agreement. Max pulled back the blankets, lifted her effortlessly from the bed, and carried her into the bathroom, setting her gently on a cushioned stool. He did not summon the nanny. Instead, he turned on the faucet. The sound of running water echoed through the massive bathroom, making the surrounding silence feel even deeper.
Max soaked a towel in warm water, wrung it out, and held it out to her. Felicia glanced at him, slightly startled, before taking the towel to wash her face. Once she finished, Max rinsed the towel thoroughly and handed it back so she could wipe her face one more time. The two of them existed in a heavy, unbroken silence.
After her face was clean, Max carried her into the walk in closet and picked up a comb.
"I can brush it myself," Felicia protested softly.
Max ignored her objection. He held onto the comb and began gently running it from her roots all the way down to the tips. Thanks to constant care, her hair was as smooth as silk, entirely free of tangles. It cascaded past her shoulders in elegant waves, stopping just above her waist. Seeing that he would not yield, Felicia sat perfectly still, watching him in the mirror. His handsome face was utterly calm, though a faint trace of exhaustion lingered in his dark, unreadable eyes. He patiently brushed out every knot before expertly gathering her hair to braid it.

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.
