The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 783
"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.
Once she was completely ready, Max returned and lifted her off the stool. "Are we going out today?" she asked softly.
"Yes," Max confirmed. "We are going to the city center for a walk. Getting out of the house will be good for your recovery."
When they arrived at the dining room, Max set her carefully in her chair. The moment Anne saw her mother, her eyes sparkled with sheer delight. "Mommy looks so pretty. I am wearing the exact same dress as Mommy, and I have the same hair too."
Felicia looked closely at Anne. They were indeed wearing matching mother and daughter outfits, and Anne's hair had undoubtedly been braided by Max. She gently stroked the little girl's head with an incredibly tender smile. "Anne is the prettiest girl in the whole world."
Anne beamed, flashing her bright little teeth. "Daddy said he is taking us shopping today. I haven't been shopping in such a long time."

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....
