The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 80
The hotel was alive with laughter and celebration. Felicia and Jeremy had the best seats in the house, right at the main table. Colton, Ava, and Greg finally made their way back after making the rounds and toasting everyone. The whole room was buzzing. On a day like this, smiles were everywhere.
After the meal, Felicia and Savannah settled in for some girl talk. Across the table, Greg and Luke started chatting about work, and it was like they instantly clicked. These days, mixing AI with game development was the norm, but Luke’s new project was on a whole other level. The tech company he’d partnered with was top-notch and he’d offered them a great deal. Still, after a month of late nights and endless tweaks, they just couldn't nail what he wanted. The whole thing had been weighing on him.
But then, just a few minutes into talking with Greg, Luke’s face lit up. Suddenly, he had hope. He decided right then he’d go check out Greg’s company later.
Meanwhile, Jeremy and Greg were deep in conversation about company financing. Their third round of internal review was done, and they’d be able to sign the contract just after New Year’s. Colton was listening in, grinning from ear to ear. He lifted his glass for another toast, thanking Jeremy again.
Jeremy just smiled. “You don’t have to thank me. It’s not a favor. Roen Capital sees a bright future with Greenway Electrical Services. We decided to invest only after a thorough review. Down the road, we’re counting on Greenway to make us all some money. It’s a win-win.”
Colton laughed. “Exactly, a win-win!”
He was so happy he kept drinking, no matter how much everyone tried to slow him down. It was a rare day off, after all.
Later, Felicia, Savannah, Jeremy, and Anthony spent the afternoon playing poker. Felicia couldn’t sit for too long, so Ava stepped in for her. Colton, already a bit tipsy, was sleeping it off upstairs. Greg and Luke headed out to Greenway Electrical Services to check out some things.
By six in the evening, the wedding banquet was officially over. Colton and Ava walked their guests out one by one. That night, there was going to be a fireworks show and a drone performance down by the river. Ava was worried about Felicia going out, especially since she was so far along. Savannah waved her off. “Ava, relax. The five of us have got her covered. There’s no way anything’s going to happen. We’ll make sure Felicia gets home safe and sound.”
Darin glanced back, searching for a familiar face, but whoever he thought he saw was already gone. He shook his head. “It’s nothing.”
He said goodbye to his host and headed out to his car. Just then, his phone rang. Andrea was calling.
“Hey, we’re waiting for you. Come on, hurry up.”
“I’m on my way.”

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....
