The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 801
"It is mostly resolved now," Luke explained lightly. "There were some issues with a previous project, and I just haven't fully bounced back yet. I really need to get some good rest once we return."
He made it sound like a breeze. Felicia eyed him suspiciously, but Ava interjected.
"Luke knows what he is doing, Felicia."
Felicia nodded and looked back at Luke. "If it is resolved, then make sure you properly relax."
"I will."
They arrived back in the Capital at one in the afternoon. Felicia went straight home and took a nap. When she woke up, she saw a missed call from Max. She dialed him back, and the call connected almost instantly.
"I just woke up and missed your call," she said, her voice still thick with sleep.
"It is nothing urgent. Come to my office for a bit. I will have a driver pick you up," Max replied smoothly.
Felicia blinked in surprise but did not question it. She also wanted to see Anne.
"Alright," she agreed.
"Mm."
Lowering her phone, she checked the time. It was four o'clock. She threw off the covers, washed up, and headed to her walk in closet. She chose a lake blue dress with flared sleeves. It used to fit her perfectly, but now, the waist was noticeably loose. She really needed to start eating more; she did not want to look this frail. Tying her hair back into a simple bun, she headed downstairs. Ava was just coming out of the kitchen with a plate of pastries.
"You are awake, Felicia. Come have a bite," Ava offered.
Felicia walked over and popped a piece of pastry into her mouth. It was delicious. She mentioned she was heading to see Max and hoping to spend some time with Anne. Ava had no reason to stop her, but she made sure to pack Felicia's medicine for the next two days.
"Remember to drink this on time. Do not pour it out just because nobody is watching," Ava teased strictly.
Felicia pulled out a box containing a blueberry chocolate cake and offered it to him. It didn't look as flawless as one from a luxury bakery, but the ingredients were incredibly rich. Max looked down at the cake, then back up at her.
"Did you make this yourself?"
"Regardless of everything else, I still owe you a thank you," she said softly.
Max's dark eyes locked onto her face, intensely searching as if trying to peer straight through to her soul. Felicia held his gaze without flinching. He slowly lowered his eyes back to the cake and let out a sudden, soft chuckle.
"You are thanking me with a single cake?"
Felicia pressed her lips together, staying silent.
"Is there only one in that bag?" he asked.

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....
