The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 840
After Felicia disappeared down the hall, Max calmly set down his chopsticks, stood up, and walked out of the dining room.
"What did you say to her?" Greg asked tensely.
Max paused mid-step. "I am taking her and Anne home first." With that, he continued toward the living room.
Anne was just getting ready to run upstairs to find her mother. When she saw her father approach, she looked up with a frown. "Daddy, Mommy said she was really tired and wanted to rest, but she looked really sick."
"We are going to go home first, sweetie," Max said softly. "Wait right here. I will go get Mommy."
"Okay," Anne nodded obediently.
Max walked upstairs and approached Felicia's bedroom. He knocked softly on the wood. "Felicia."
There was no response. He reached out and turned the knob, but the door was locked from the inside. A dark frown creased his forehead. He immediately went downstairs, retrieved the spare key from the maid, and let himself in.
Felicia was sitting on the edge of the bed, her back facing the door. Her arms hung limply at her sides, and one hand loosely gripped her phone. The speaker was turned on, projecting Andrea's gleeful, venomous, and completely hysterical voice into the quiet room.
"Your own mother abandoned you, and your brother does not want you either! If they ever saw your hideous, scarred face, they would not even bother giving you a second glance! Do you honestly think that just because you look pretty now, Max actually loves you? He was completely disgusted and utterly repulsed by the ugly freak you used to be! Hahaha!"
Andrea hurled her phone across the room, her bloodshot eyes brimming with absolute hatred. Today was supposed to be her magnificent engagement gala. She was dressed in a million-dollar haute couture gown and adorned with hundreds of millions of dollars worth of exquisite jewelry. She had wanted to show the entire world that she, Andrea, the daughter of the Curtis family, was the most noble and envied woman on earth. She wanted to prove that she was marrying an exceptionally handsome, universally desired man. She had wanted to force Max to look at her radiant happiness and feel gut-wrenching regret for being with that old, disgusting Felicia instead of marrying her.
She had spent countless days eagerly anticipating this triumph, only to become the biggest laughingstock in the city. Holden was supposed to personally escort her to the manor, but instead, he had merely sent a driver to pick her up. By the time she arrived at the venue, all the distinguished guests had taken their seats, yet Holden was nowhere to be found, leaving her alone on the stage to endure the piercing, judgmental stares of the entire elite class.
The ceremony was delayed for hours, but the groom never appeared. Gossip spread like wildfire through the ballroom. Many of the guests had only attended to for the sake of Holden. Once they realized Holden was not coming, they immediately began making their excuses and leaving the venue in droves.
Just moments ago, she had accidentally overheard her father screaming on the phone. Their family company had suddenly plunged into a catastrophic crisis. Holden's sudden disappearance was entirely orchestrated by Darin.
Her grand, flawless engagement had been systematically dismantled and turned into a pathetic, humiliating joke.

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....
