The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 993
Felicia lifted her chin slightly, drawing in a deep breath to force herself to remain calm. She sat back down on the sofa, looking up at the man's stormy expression. "Max, can we please talk like rational adults? I do not want to fight with you."
Max glared down at her with pitch-black eyes. "Answer my question first."
Felicia finally realized that this man wasn't just domineering and aggressive. He was unreasonably, maddeningly stubborn.
"Whether or not I remarry is something I'll consider in the future."
"So you will remarry, then?" he demanded aggressively.
Felicia stared back, her voice matching the coldness of his. "Max, we are divorced. If I choose to remarry, it is entirely within my rights and completely reasonable."
As her words fell, the man let out a cold, mocking smirk. "In that case, I suppose I should start looking for a more suitable woman to be Anne's mother."
Felicia's eyes widened in sheer panic.
She watched as he turned and strode purposefully toward the bedroom. Springing to her feet, she rushed forward and grabbed his arm, her voice laced with terror. "Max, what are you doing?"
Max glanced back at her panicked face. "I'm leaving so I don't interrupt you cultivating feelings with other men. I'm taking Anne with me right now."
His tone dripped with biting sarcasm.
Felicia's fingers dug into his arm as she looked up at him desperately. "Do you really have to make things this ugly, Max?"
"What am I doing?" he countered sharply. "Or did you really expect Anne to just sit back and watch you parade around with Jeremy?"
"You think everyone operates the way you do. We are absolutely nothing like what you're imagining."
Max's dark eyes narrowed dangerously. He slowly turned his body toward her, scrutinizing the woman before him. "Then enlighten me. What exactly is wrong with me? How am I so different?"
Before she could finish her sentence, the man suddenly reached out, pulling her tightly into his arms from behind.
Felicia jolted in surprise. Surrounded by his broad, solid chest, his intense scent completely enveloped her. His voice dropped to a low, powerful murmur by her ear. "I won't force you. I'll give you time to think about it. We can start completely over."
His abrupt shift in attitude left Felicia completely at a loss for how to respond.
Max simply held her there. The apartment was so quiet that only the sound of their intertwined breathing filled the space.
An unknown amount of time passed before Max finally, slowly let her go. "I'm exhausted. I'm going to get some rest. I have to leave early tomorrow morning. You should get some sleep too."
With that, he turned and walked toward the guest bedroom. Felicia had already asked Mabel to prepare it for him earlier.
Rooted to the spot, Felicia watched his retreating back. The man seemed completely stripped of his usual imposing aura, leaving behind nothing but an endless, heavy exhaustion.

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....
