The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 980
"All she wants is a complete, stable family," Max stated. "I am preparing to give her a wedding. Anne can grow up by her side, and she can do whatever she pleases. Do you honestly think that is bad for her future?"
Darin let out a harsh laugh. "But it was your parents who forced Felicia to divorce you. The Hawthorne family cannot accept her."
"I admit that was entirely unexpected," Max replied smoothly. "As for whether the Hawthornes accept her, it no longer matters. My acceptance is all that counts. If I want to, I can petition the court right now to revoke that divorce certificate."
"You have not changed at all. Marriage is never just a one person decision. I strongly advise you against filing any appeals, unless Felicia willingly agrees to remarry you."
Max fell silent. The air between them grew thick with a tense stalemate. Darin offered one final piece of advice. "If you had even half of Jeremy's ability to see things from Felicia's perspective, she would not have accepted that divorce certificate so quietly."
With that, Darin turned and kept walking. Max stood frozen for a few seconds before finally catching up. Darin drove him back. Throughout the journey, they sat in the back seat, staring out opposite windows in complete silence.
When the car finally pulled up to Oakridge Estate, Max stepped out without a word. Darin offered no farewell either. Max gave him a fleeting look, shut the car door, and walked into the dark villa.
"Let’s go," Darin instructed the driver, and the car slowly drove away.
Inside the house, Max did not bother turning on the lights. Guided only by the moonlight filtering through the windows, he walked over to the sofa and collapsed into it. His entire figure melted into the shadows, his profile barely outlined by the faint silver glow. The massive living room was so quiet he could almost hear his own heartbeat. He sat in silence, lost in whatever thoughts were consuming him.
Time blurred until the sudden vibration of his phone shattered the stillness. He pulled it out, the screen illuminating his face in the dark, and answered.
"Today, Yara said that Aunt Heather and Uncle Darin told everyone Mommy is going to be with Uncle Jeremy. She said you and Mommy are divorced." At this point, Anne began to sob over the phone.
During dinner, Heather, Greg, Savannah, and the others had brought up the situation. Yara had been listening.
When the two little girls were playing later, things had been fine until Yara innocently asked if the divorce was true. Anne had flown into a rage and screamed at Yara, making the other girl cry.
Furious and overwhelmed, Anne had turned on all the adults in the room, shouting at the top of her lungs, "My mommy and daddy are not getting divorced! They are having a wedding soon! I hate all of you!"

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....
