The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 942
After Terry left, Felicia received a call from Savannah.
"Felicia," Savannah greeted gently. She had only decided to call after speaking with Jeremy to confirm Felicia was in a stable state of mind. Hearing her calm voice now, Savannah let out a quiet sigh of relief. "I am so glad you are safe."
Her heart ached endlessly for her friend. She wondered how many more tragedies fate would force Felicia to endure before finally letting her be. To Felicia, Max had brought far more pain and heartbreak than joy, but he was still Anne's father, and the little girl was far too young to lose him. If Max was truly gone, Felicia would likely never see Anne again, given the Hawthorne family's power.
"You do not need to worry about me, Savannah," Felicia reassured her. "I am holding up fine."
Savannah did not keep her on the phone for long, knowing excessive comfort would only sound hollow. She simply needed to hear for herself that Felicia was alive and well.
Over the next three days, Felicia remained locked inside the apartment, spending the vast majority of her time holed up in Max's study. Jeremy was the one who kept her updated. Although he was technically in New York on personal business, he lacked the legal standing to directly interfere with Sterling Capital. He could only analyze the situation through Darin, utilizing his own extensive network to monitor rival companies and help formulate preemptive countermeasures to stabilize the chaotic market.
Meanwhile, there was still absolutely no news of Max.
If a maritime search and rescue operation exceeded one month without locating the missing persons, they would officially be declared dead. Therefore, within this strict one month window, Terry and the core team had to execute a foolproof plan to minimize the devastating losses.
Max had not gone into this completely unprepared. Darin had uncovered critical information on his computer, breadcrumbs that only Darin could decipher. Max had undoubtedly gambled on the absolute certainty that Darin would rush over at the first sign of trouble. This proved one terrifying reality: Max knew he could not escape this catastrophe. His ambitions had simply grown too massive, and he was risking his own life on a desperate gamble. However, whether he had actually survived the disaster remained a haunting mystery.
Felicia knew the men were keeping her in the dark about the finer details. The true scope of this conspiracy likely surpassed anything she could comprehend.
"Will Darin be in any danger?" she asked anxiously over the phone.
"Do not worry. He is safe," Jeremy answered with total certainty.
Felicia felt her racing heart settle slightly. "What about Gavin?"

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....
