That night, Felicia did not experience the uncontrollable symptoms she had over the past few nights. She only woke up halfway through the night without any severe reactions. As she threw off the covers to get out of bed, the man beside her woke up. Max looked at her, sitting up to ask where she was going.
"To the bathroom," Felicia answered in a normal tone.
Max simply watched her go. When she returned to the room, she saw him leaning against the headboard, waiting for her. She walked over, pulled back the covers, and lay down again.
Max turned on his side and pressed close behind her. "I can't sleep. Do you want to watch a movie?" he offered, trying to distract her.
"I don't want to," Felicia replied.
Max didn't force the issue. "Then let's talk for a bit."
Felicia remained silent. Max didn't push her to speak either, knowing they didn't seem to have many common topics to discuss. He just held her like that. The room was so quiet that only the sound of their breathing filled the air.
After an unknown amount of time, Felicia finally spoke. "Max."
"Hmm?"
"You don't have to keep staying by my side like this," she murmured.
Max slowly opened his eyes. "If I don't stay by your side, who will?"
Felicia had nothing more to say. The minutes and seconds ticked by. She couldn't fall asleep, but she could clearly feel that the man behind her had already drifted off, his breathing growing exceptionally deep and steady.
The next day, bright sunlight streamed through the windows, illuminating the room where the lights had been left on. The man on the large bed fluttered his eyelashes and opened his eyes. Once his mind cleared, he turned to check the spot beside him, finding the woman already gone. He rested for a moment before throwing off the covers and getting out of bed. After a quick wash, he opened the door and walked out. Before he even reached the living room, he heard Anne and Felicia talking.

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....
