The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 106
At one in the afternoon, the flight to San Francisco lifted off right on time.
Felicia sat by the window in business class, her gaze locked on the city below as it got smaller and smaller. In her hand, she squeezed a necklace, the locket inside holding a photo of Anne as a newborn. Leaving now meant she might never see her child again.
Baby, I’m so sorry. The words echoed in her heart. Each thought sent a fresh wave of pain through her chest.
At the same moment, in the back of a Bentley headed from the airport to the villa, Anne suddenly started crying uncontrollably. Max tried everything to calm her, but nothing worked. She cried herself to exhaustion and finally fell asleep in his arms, her sobs fading away at last.
He held her close, careful as he wiped away the streaks of tears on her little cheeks. He patted her gently, his eyes full of worry and fatherly tenderness.
...
Five years later.
BlueMarble Investments Headquarters.
The CEO’s office was huge, but it looked more like a playroom than a workspace. Pink toys were everywhere, stickers covered the walls, and a crayon drawing of a bear hung next to the window. Right in front of the massive desk sat a child’s high chair.
Anne sat quietly in her chair, legs swinging back and forth. Her hair was done up in two little buns, pearls wound through the strands, and a sapphire hairclip sparkled above her ear. She played Sudoku on a tablet, the tip of her tongue poking out in concentration.
Max stood by the window, tall and striking in a white shirt and black slacks that showed off his broad shoulders and trim waist. He was on the phone, his face set in a serious, businesslike expression.
As soon as he hung up, he turned toward Anne, and everything about him softened. He walked over, noticed she’d reached level 100, and a proud smile tugged at his lips. He ruffled her hair, his voice gentle. “Anne, you’re amazing.”
Anne looked up at him, her eyes wide and shining under long lashes, like she had a whole galaxy hidden inside. “Daddy, I want to paint.”
Her voice was sweet and soft, almost like cotton candy.

When is this going to end? Please update it pretty please. Thank you...
Update pls...
The story is a drag. How can they write crap like this where the female lead is like a lapdog, and the male lead is a complete trash? They use a child to blackmail the mother into staying. The female lead should not go back to the trashy male lead. I would prefer her to be with Jeremy....
Hey. Thank you for updating this novel here. Request you to update a big bulky lot of chapters please. It is such an interesting novel that 10 per day is simply not enough. Thanks again...
