The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 198

Colt was making his way over, chatting with Darin as they went. The moment Colt spotted Felicia, he called out, “Evelynn.”

Felicia stepped forward, her smile polite and warm. “Mr. Foxhall, Colt.”

Darin gave her a small nod, acknowledging her greeting.

Colt looked genuinely surprised. “Wait, you know Mr. Foxhall?” He was just about to introduce them.

Felicia’s eyes stayed calm, her expression unreadable. “We've met before,” she said simply.

“Oh, got it.”

Darin glanced at her. “I didn’t expect to run into you here, Evelynn. Do you have a minute to talk?”

Felicia met his gaze, her lips curving into a gentle smile, though her eyes stayed cool. She didn’t say no. “Sure.”

Darin told Colt goodbye, then led Felicia to a quiet spot in the lounge area on the first floor. They sat across from each other, the low hum of conversation filling the background.

“Are you here to chew me out, Mr. Foxhall?” Felicia asked, her tone light but with a bite. After all, even though he’d done everything to make things right, she had still slapped Andrea. It was just one slap, but Max and Darin acted like they needed to shield Andrea from the world.

Darin caught the edge in her voice. He just watched her, his voice steady. “That’s not why I’m here.”

“Then what do you want to talk about?” Felicia asked.

Darin went quiet. Honestly, he wasn’t sure himself. He looked at her, and even knowing she hit Andrea, he couldn't find it in himself to be angry.

Felicia started to frown as Darin just stared at her, lost in thought. The silence stretched.

“If you don’t have anything to say, I’ll be going,” Felicia said after a moment, already gathering her things.
