The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 998

Max received IV fluids all morning and his condition improved significantly. The doctor prescribed him some new medication and gave him further instructions. Tommy dropped off some lunch. After they finished eating and left the hospital, Max prepared to head to the airport.

"Can't Daddy stay until he's fully recovered before leaving?" Anne asked, looking up at him with concern.

Max took Anne's hand. "I will come back as soon as I’m done with work."

"Then you must make sure to eat well and sleep well. You can't get sick again."

"I know." As he spoke, he looked up at the woman standing nearby.

Felicia met his gaze, but the man remained silent. "Have a safe trip," she said.

He kept staring at her in silence, clearly unconvinced by this single sentence.

Felicia let out a quiet sigh. "You heard what the doctor said. Take your medicine on time, don't drink alcohol, and get plenty of rest."

"And?" Max asked.

Felicia's beautiful eyes darkened slightly. She paused for a moment before adding, "Make sure to eat well."

"Do you truly mean that?" Max asked.

Felicia really wanted to kick him directly in the leg. But seeing Anne staring at her with wide eyes, she held back. "I mean it."

Max raised an eyebrow. "You'd better."

Felicia remained speechless.

"Remember to call or text me if anything happens," he continued. "And answer my calls promptly."

Felicia looked at him. He seemed completely oblivious to the fact that they were now divorced.

Max seemed to read her mind. "As for the issues between us, we'll deal with them properly when I return. In the meantime, you'd better not get any other ideas." He placed heavy emphasis on the last sentence.

"If I were afraid of something, do you think I'd still allow you anywhere near Felicia? You two are already divorced," Darin replied, stressing the final word heavily.

Silence fell over the line for a few seconds. "What's the matter?" Max finally asked.

Judging by his tone, Darin could guess that the two of them hadn't gotten along too terribly over the past couple of days. "It's nothing. If you don't come back soon, you'll give Holden enough room to breathe."

Max let out a cold laugh. "What kind of waves could he possibly make now?"

Darin didn't say much else. The two exchanged a few brief words, with Darin knowing Max was currently on his way to the airport.

"Let's leave it at that," Darin said, preparing to hang up.

"You'd better have a serious talk with Jeremy and make him go back," Max suddenly interjected.

"Where he goes is his freedom," Darin replied. "I have no right to interfere. If you're so confident, why are you afraid of him? Anyway, this is your problem. Handle it yourself." Without waiting for Max to say anything else, he hung up.
