The teacher was a man, lean and seemingly in his early forties. Felicia instantly recognized him as a university professor who frequently appeared at international financial forums. Naturally, any instructor handpicked by Max was bound to have top-tier credentials.
Max shook his hand and introduced Felicia. "This is my daughter's mother, Felicia."
Professor Schneider extended his hand. "A pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Hawthorne."
Felicia didn't bother correcting the title and politely shook his hand.
The group proceeded upstairs to Professor Schneider's independent studio, where the lesson would temporarily take place. Once inside the office, the professor assessed Anne's background. She was too young to have received formal financial intelligence training, but having spent so much time by Max's side, she had naturally absorbed a great deal. Professor Schneider asked her a few simple questions, and Anne answered them effortlessly. Having interacted with many children from wealthy families, the professor honestly felt that the Hawthorne family's little lady was the most brilliant child he had encountered so far. Of course, with such superior genetics from her parents, it was hard for the child to fall short.
After their discussion, Max knelt in front of Anne. "Be a good girl in class, Anne. Mommy and Daddy will come pick you up this afternoon."
"Okay," Anne chirped.
As Felicia said goodbye, Anne suddenly grabbed her hand. "What is it, sweetie?"
"Mommy has to come pick me up with Daddy, okay?"
Felicia gently stroked Anne's head. "Mommy knows."
Max and Felicia walked out of the building together.
"I'll come back after Anne finishes her class," Felicia said.
"Alright, I'll follow you to wherever you're going, and we can come back together later," Max replied, his tone incredibly nonchalant.
Felicia halted abruptly and turned to glare at him. "Max, can you stop being so unreasonable?"

Take her back? Want to see her?? Donno about Felicia but I think I’m falling for this Max somehow🫠🙈pls update daily...
I knew it! Hopefully Felicia's health will improve and will want to have the baby. Oh how I despise Max's family....
Please post *I forgot I ever loved you*...
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....
