The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 1124
With those parting words, Jeffrey turns and walks back inside. Max narrows his dark eyes at the retreating figure before turning to get into his car.
Back in the living room, Clarence watches Jeffrey until he takes a seat on the sofa. "Tell me, what exactly is going on?"
"He crossed the line first, so he shouldn't blame me for retaliating," Jeffrey states calmly.
Clarence's expression darkens, and he lets out a weary sigh. "Do not make things ugly with the Hawthorne family."
Comparing the current state of their family to the Hawthornes and the Gilberts always brings Clarence a profound sense of sorrow. If Jeffrey's father hadn't died in that tragic accident, the Manning family wouldn't be this desolate. When he eventually passes, there will hardly be anyone left to serve as pallbearers.
"I know what I am doing," Jeffrey assures him.
Clarence says no more, and Jeffrey gently helps him back to his room to rest.
On the way to his own family estate, Max receives a call from Miranda. He briefly checks in with Anne before heading over.
Miranda is waiting for him in the living room. "Come take a seat," she greets him as he enters.
Max walks over and takes a seat across from her. She starts with pleasantries, asking if work has been busy, to which Max replies that it has. He then asks why she called him over.
Miranda doesn't beat around the bush anymore. "I have heard some things regarding the Manning family. This is their internal affair, Max, and I hope you will not interfere."
She no longer involves herself in the business decisions made by Max or Daniel. However, ever since Max's accident and her husband's passing, she has acutely felt her advancing age. Realizing her years are numbered, she has come to value nothing more than her family's safety and unity. Clarence had called her just moments ago, and she fully sympathizes with the immense burdens he has carried all these years.
"As long as Jeffrey doesn't cross the line, I will stay out of it. However, he has already taken Felicia," Max replies.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max)
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....
