The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 89
Felicia was completely absorbed in the game on her phone. She didn't even notice Max coming down the stairs until Marian spoke up, her voice cutting through Felicia's focus. “Sir, are you heading out?”
Felicia looked up just in time to see Max. At this hour, there was really only one person he’d be in such a rush to see. Andrea. She dropped her gaze back to her screen and pretended not to care.
Max drove straight to Andrea’s place. She was already waiting for him outside. The moment his car pulled up, she opened the door and slipped into the passenger seat. They sat together in silence for a few minutes before heading inside.
When they walked into the living room, Yvonne looked up, clearly surprised. “Max? What are you doing here?”
“Sorry for dropping by so late,” Max said. “I’m here to see Darin.”
Yvonne nodded. “Thank you for coming all this way.”
Andrea led Max upstairs.
Max went into Darin’s room. The smell of alcohol hit him as soon as he opened the door. Darin was slouched on the couch, rubbing his temples, his pocket watch dangling from his fingers.
“What brings you here?” Darin asked, sounding tired.
Max sat down across from him. “What happened?”
Darin took another drink, clearly not eager to talk. “It’s nothing.”
Max watched him closely. “This is about your sister, isn’t it?”
Darin’s grip tightened around his glass. For a long moment, he didn’t say anything. Then finally, he spoke. “I need a favor.”
Max waited, letting him take his time.
“What is it?”
...
Felicia had no idea if Max came back that night, and honestly, she didn’t care. When she got up the next morning, he was already gone.
Two days later, Felicia had a check-up. The doctor told her she’d be transferred to the hospital in three days so they could be ready for the baby. The doctor updated Max, and the hospital was prepared for anything.
During those days, Miranda, Tatiana, and Rose all stopped by to visit. Everyone in the Hawthorne family was on edge, waiting for the arrival of the first baby girl in a generation.
But that night, while the whole house slept peacefully, something happened that no one saw coming.

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....
