The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 834
Max returned to his office, where Isaac immediately handed him a thick dossier detailing the investigation into Felicia's car accident.
Max took the file and flipped through the pages. The truck driver was a fugitive wanted for murder. Just two days before the crash, the man's family had received a transfer of half a million dollars from an untraceable offshore account. Despite the perpetrators' careful efforts to cover their tracks, the investigation had successfully identified the mastermind over the past two days. It was someone who had fled the country five years ago and harbored a massive, deep-rooted grudge against BlueMarble Investments. It was unnerving that someone hiding overseas could orchestrate such a precise hit using local intelligence.
Max finished reading the report, his dark eyes turning lethal and cold. "Dismissed."
Isaac gave a respectful nod and turned to leave the office. It was abundantly clear to him that the moment Felicia was in danger, Max cared about nothing else.
Once the door clicked shut, Max pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
Meanwhile, Ava stayed at Oakridge Estate to keep Felicia company, personally cooking her favorite meals. With Anne happily chattering by her side, Felicia looked genuinely relaxed and joyful. Throughout the entire day, she did not show a single sign of emotional instability. Seeing her so at peace finally put Ava's mind at ease.
After dinner, Ava prepared to head back to her own house. "Sean is still at home. I need to go back and keep an eye on him."
Felicia did not try to make her stay. "Send me a message when you get home, Mom."
Ava smiled and nodded.
Anne waved her little hand happily. "Bye, Grandma."
"Goodbye, sweetie. Remember to come visit Grandma's house soon," Ava cooed.
"I will!"
The driver escorted Ava back to her residence. When she walked through the door, Colton was nowhere to be seen. She took little Sean from the nanny's arms and frowned. "Where is Colton?"
Ava's face instantly hardened, her voice dropping into a sharp, furious scolding. "Did you treat the doctor's warnings like a joke?"
"I swear it was just a tiny sip!" Colton scrambled to defend himself. "I promise I will never drink again."
"How old are you? Are you a three-year-old child?" Ava yelled. "Do I have to watch you every second of the day just so you know what you can and cannot put in your mouth? Felicia was just discharged from the hospital. She can barely eat or sleep properly, and yet you have the mood to go out drinking and feasting! If you have so much free time, why do you not spend it actually caring about your daughter?"
Colton hastily apologized, trying to coax little Sean into helping calm his angry mother down. Ava felt a frustrating mix of fury and helplessness. She sharply ordered the nanny to get Colton some water.
Colton honestly did not feel drunk. He really had only taken a few small sips of alcohol, yet his head had been spinning inexplicably since dinner ended. He could barely remember a single thing he and Ollie had talked about. Shaking his head to clear the fog, he decided not to overthink it, assuming his memory lapse was just a symptom of the alcohol. After getting scolded so viciously, he swore to himself that he would never touch another drop of liquor.
At that exact moment, in a luxurious, high-end villa across the city, Yvonne stared coldly at the corporate guarantee document in her hands. The signature line bore Colton's authentic handwriting.

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....
