The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 797
Darin offered a soft hum of confirmation. "I will be heading back to the Capital in a couple of days."
"Alright, I will see you when you get back," Felicia said, her voice laced with anticipation.
Hearing that hopefulness in her tone only made Darin's heart ache more. He forced a lightness into his voice. "Okay."
After ending the call, Felicia dialed Anne's number. It connected quickly.
"Anne."
"It is me."
Felicia's expression darkened the moment she recognized Tatiana's voice. Tatiana was looking after Anne at the old estate today. Felicia remained completely silent.
Tatiana's strict, biting tone came through the speaker. "Felicia, whether you are truly sick or just faking it, I am warning you to drop these pathetic little schemes of yours. Anne is not a tool for you to manipulate Max. He owes you absolutely nothing. Stop acting like some tragic victim whom the whole world has failed. I can see exactly what you are trying to do. You had better behave yourself. If you dare cause Anne or Max the slightest bit of harm, I will not let you get away with it."
In the past, Tatiana had merely despised Felicia for her background and appearance. Now, that disdain had morphed into pure hatred. Felicia's drama was deeply affecting Anne's emotional state, and Max had even dropped everything at work to take Felicia to Australia for treatment. How could her proud son lower himself to dote on a woman like her? A woman who belonged nowhere near their family. After everything that had happened, Tatiana's greatest fear was that Max had genuinely fallen in love with her.
Listening to Tatiana's harsh warning, Felicia's grip on her phone tightened dramatically. Without waiting for a response, Tatiana simply hung up.
After helping Yara wash up, Heather emerged from the bathroom and noticed Felicia sitting frozen on the sofa. Spotting her troubled expression instantly, Heather rushed over.
"Felicia, what is going on?" she asked with deep concern.
Felicia quickly masked her emotions, looking up with a tight smile. "It is nothing."
But Felicia's emotions were far too raw these days; she could not hide them at all. Heather sat down next to her and gently took her hand.
"Go ahead, I will take good care of him," Colton promised.
Greg took the wheel, and the three of them set off. The two and a half hour drive put them in Hartford around noon. They grabbed a quick lunch before heading to the clinic, which was packed with people who had traveled far and wide to see the famous doctor. Thanks to the money Ava had paid to secure a premium slot, they bypassed the long line.
Ava accompanied Felicia into the consultation room, where Dr. Chelsea checked her pulse. He concluded that Felicia was suffering from severe emotional stagnation and a depletion of vital energy in her heart and spleen, which caused her poor sleep and frequent nightmares. He performed a treatment on the spot and prescribed five days of medicine to start regulating her system.
After the treatment, Felicia wasn't sure if it was a placebo effect, but her nerves felt significantly more relaxed, and the heavy fog in her head seemed to lift slightly. However, she would need continuous sessions. Since Ava could not conveniently stay in Hartford because of baby Sean, they decided to book a hotel for the night so Felicia could receive one more treatment the next day.
Greg had an important meeting back in the Capital the following morning, so he had to leave. Luke volunteered to stay behind and promised to have a driver pick them up the next day. After everything was settled, Greg dropped them off at a hotel in the city center before driving back to the Capital.
After dinner, Felicia received a call from Jeremy and updated him on her situation. When Jeremy hung up, he felt a sense of relief knowing she was surrounded by family. Her current state was undeniably much better than it had been two years ago.
Later that evening, Felicia desperately wanted to check in on Anne. She missed her daughter terribly. However, since Anne was likely still with Tatiana and Max was probably busy with work, she gripped her phone, hesitating over whether she should call Max to ask about her.

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....
