The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 872
Felicia gently squeezed her friend's hand. "You do not have to overthink it. Just treat him like a complete stranger."
Savannah nodded silently.
The dinner location Darin had booked was an exclusive private kitchen situated right along the river, boasting gorgeous waterfront views. After they settled into the private room and ordered their meals, Jeremy and Darin leaned near the window, casually discussing business matters.
Felicia and Savannah sat quietly at the table. Listening to the two men converse, Felicia could easily piece together the truth: in the ongoing corporate warfare against the Curtis family, Darin was currently emerging as the undisputed victor. That explained why he suddenly had so much leisure time on his hands.
After finishing their meal, Savannah followed Felicia back to her apartment while Jeremy checked into a nearby hotel.
Later that night, Darin sat in his study handling work. After wrapping up an overseas conference call, he set his phone down, opened his messaging app, and checked his chat history with Max. The conversation screen was still completely devoid of any response.
After waiting a moment longer, Darin typed out a new message: What are you so busy with?
Half an hour later, Max finally replied: Caring for your sister.
Darin stared at the screen, utterly speechless. He knew he never should have provoked that arrogant bastard.
When the weekend arrived, Felicia planned to take Jeremy and Savannah on a tour of the surrounding areas. Since they had traveled all the way to Cloudville, it was only right to show them a good time. Unfortunately, Savannah woke up feeling entirely under the weather and had no choice but to stay behind and rest.
"You and Jeremy go ahead without me," Savannah insisted weakly. "Just remember to bring me back some good food."
"Alright, if you are sure," Felicia agreed. "Get plenty of rest."
Although the staff had not explicitly asked about their relationship status, their natural chemistry made it an easy assumption.
Felicia froze slightly at the blessing. Jeremy immediately stepped in to clarify.
"I apologize, but we are not in that kind of relationship," Jeremy explained gently.
The staff member looked surprised. Jeremy did not offer any further elaboration, simply turning to Felicia. "Let’s go."
They walked away together, leaving the bewildered staff standing in the street. The cameraman lowered his equipment and muttered, "Well, if they are not a couple yet, they will be soon. The guy is definitely still pursuing her."
The interviewer snapped out of her daze and nodded in strong agreement. She could only sigh in admiration, realizing that even incredibly handsome, high quality men had to put in the effort to court the women they liked.

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....
