The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 814
Jeremy took Felicia to a nearby restaurant overlooking a picturesque park and lake. They sat by the window, letting the beautiful scenery soothe their spirits.
After they ordered, Jeremy looked across the table at Felicia. "You didn't sleep well last night, did you?" He could easily see past the makeup she had carefully applied to hide her pale complexion and the dull, exhausted look in her eyes.
Felicia did not try to deny it. "No, I didn't. My mind is a mess, and I just feel so incredibly tired." She felt like she was on the verge of losing her mind. She had no idea what to do or how to move forward, feeling as though she failed at absolutely everything. Why did she have to endure so much pain? Her mother had abandoned her when she was a child, her marriage had brought her nothing but agony, and now she felt like a burdensome weight on everyone she cared about. Why was the world so cruel to her?
Seeing the tears pooling in her eyes, Jeremy stood up and moved to the empty seat beside her. He reached out as if to embrace her, but ultimately settled for gently grasping her hand. Felicia's entire body stiffened at the contact.
"Don't let your thoughts spiral, Felicia," Jeremy's deep, steady voice murmured close to her ear. "You haven't done anything wrong, and no one is blaming you. We all just want to see you get better. Please don't be so hard on yourself. You've pulled yourself out of the dark before, and you can absolutely do it again. Life is long, and no one gets a perfectly smooth, happy ride all the way through. Everyone carries pain they can't speak of, but we all keep pushing forward as best as we can because there is still so much road ahead. Don't trap yourself in this temporary hardship. You have to remember you're not alone. You have family and friends who love you, and we will be right here with you until you heal."
Listening to his comforting words, Felicia tightened her fingers and nodded firmly. "I know."
A short distance away, a hidden figure snapped a photo of them. The angle was deliberately chosen to obscure their facial expressions, making the casual moment look like an intimate embrace between lovers.
Once Felicia had calmed down, Jeremy returned to his seat across the table.
"Well, if it isn't Jeremy and Evelynn. What a coincidence seeing you two here." Holden strolled over to their table, with Andrea clinging affectionately to his arm. They looked like the ideal couple.
Holden's gaze shifted to Felicia. "You've lost quite a bit of weight, Evelynn. Are you sick?"
Felicia kept her face entirely blank, refusing to even look at him as she picked up her cup and took a slow sip of tea.
Holden scoffed coldly, grabbing the furious and dripping Andrea by the arm and dragging her away.
Once the disruptive pair was gone, the servers began to bring out their food.
"Let's just eat, Felicia," Jeremy said gently.
Felicia gave a quiet hum of agreement.
Meanwhile, over at BlueMarble Investments, Isaac was heading toward the CEO's office to deliver lunch.

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....
