The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 96
Felicia noticed the man stepping into the room. Max came over, cradling the baby in his arms, and carefully placed her down next to Felicia. She turned her head to look at her daughter, a gentle, loving smile lighting up her face. The baby saw her mom and broke out in a happy little giggle.
Felicia wanted so badly to hold her, but she couldn’t move just yet. Ava watched them both, her lips curving into a smile. She longed to cuddle the baby too, but held back.
Comfortable beside Felicia, the baby soon closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep. Felicia, her voice barely above a whisper, looked up at the man. “What’s her name?”
“Anne,” Max answered.
Felicia repeated it softly. “Anne.” It really was a lovely name.
She asked Ava to snap a photo of her and the baby together. After that, Max picked the baby up again. “Get some rest,” he told Felicia, then walked out with their daughter in his arms.
Three days slipped by. Felicia started to feel better and could manage a few steps, though she still needed to stay in the hospital a bit longer for observation. The baby had already been taken back to the Hawthorne family estate.
Jeremy and Savannah came to visit, but the baby wasn’t there. Felicia showed them the photo instead.
“Focus on getting well, and take care of yourself,” Jeremy said. Anything more felt unnecessary. Felicia nodded. “I know.”
While she was in the hospital, Savannah stopped by every day to chat and keep her company. Luke dropped in from time to time too. He told her the baby was at Oakridge Estate, under the care of a dedicated team. All the Hawthorne relatives had been by to visit the new addition. The whole Hawthorne family was filled with a quiet joy.
“Mrs. Hawthrone, I’m here to take you home,” he said politely.
Colton and Ava looked at him, clearly unimpressed. After all this time, they sent a driver and nothing more. Before Felicia could answer, Ava spoke up. “That won’t be necessary. We’ll take our daughter home ourselves and look after her.”
Her voice was calm, not rude. She knew the driver was just doing his job. The driver looked a little awkward, unsure of what to do.
Felicia looked at him and said gently, “You can head back now.”

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....
