The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 799
Felicia saw no reason to hide it. "Max."
Ava's expression darkened slightly. "He called you?"
"I called him to check on Anne," Felicia explained.
"Why not just call Anne directly?"
"She is with her grandmother right now."
Ava immediately understood the situation. The Hawthorne family was undoubtedly furious with Felicia by now and likely hoping Max would divorce her as soon as possible. They definitely knew Max had taken her to Australia, and learning about her mental health struggles would only deepen their disdain for her. Even if Max was refusing a divorce right now, a marriage like theirs could not possibly last much longer. She decided not to press the issue.
"Just finish your medicine," Ava urged gently.
Felicia stared down at the pitch black liquid, her stomach churning violently before she even took a sip. But she had no choice. She lifted the cup and gulped it down. Halfway through, she nearly gagged. Ava quickly handed her a glass of warm water and rubbed her back soothingly.
"Just bear with it, it will be over soon."
When Felicia finally managed to finish the bitter brew, Ava gave her a piece of candy to suck on. Once her stomach settled, Felicia looked up pleadingly.
Luke's face tightened. "Daniel, I am not going on a blind date."
"Luke, I am trying to talk to you reasonably, but you refuse to listen. I thought you understood the situation, but clearly, you do not. If you do not go on this date, I will have my wife contact Felicia directly to have a serious talk about you." Daniel's tone left absolutely no room for negotiation.
"Daniel!" Luke gripped his phone, his chest heaving with intense emotion. He did not know how to argue back, only feeling a suffocating ache in his heart.
Did he not know the truth himself? The moment Felicia and Max registered their marriage, any chance between them was completely destroyed. Sometimes, he genuinely did not know what he was holding on to. But watching her suffer through so much heartbreak over the years made it impossible for him to just stand by. There was not a single second he did not deeply regret just watching her secretly pine after Max. If only he had been brave enough to pursue her back then, maybe she would have accepted him, and everything would have been beautifully different.
Met with silence on the other end, Daniel softened his tone. "Luke, I am not trying to force your hand. I just cannot stand watching you throw your life away like this, and Mom is incredibly worried about you."

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....
