The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 246

Max turned his head, but the red wine still slid down his cheek, leaving a bright stain on his black shirt. It bloomed across the fabric, impossible to miss.

Gavin and Darin hurried over, stopping short as soon as they saw what was happening. For a second, everyone just stood there, stunned. The staff froze, not sure what to do.

Felicia set her glass back on the cart and shot Max a glare that could have burned a hole through him. Without another word, she spun around and marched off.

“Evelynn!” Gavin called after her.

Felicia didn’t even glance back. Her whole body practically vibrated with anger as she charged ahead.

Gavin looked at Max for a moment, didn’t bother saying anything, and then hurried after Felicia.

Darin watched them leave, then turned to Max. A staff member nearby snapped out of her shock and quickly handed Max a few napkins.

Max took them and wiped his face and neck, frowning as he realized some of the wine had soaked into his dark hair.

“What the hell happened?” Darin asked.

Felicia stormed back into the private room and immediately poured herself two shots, knocking them back one after the other.

Gavin caught her hand just as she reached for the bottle again. “Hey, slow down. This stuff is way too strong. Don’t overdo it.”

Felicia put the glass down and sank into a chair, trying to force herself to calm down.

Gavin sat beside her and poured a glass of water. He handed it over and Felicia drank it in one go.

She sat quietly for a while, breathing deeply until she felt steady again.

Gavin leaned in a little. “Did you hurt your wrist? Want me to take a look?”

Felicia glanced down. Her wrist was red and sore, but she shook her head. “It’s nothing. I’ll be fine.”

Gavin grinned. “If I see Max again, I’m punching him for you.”

Felicia rolled her eyes. “I don’t wanna hear his name. It makes me sick.”

“Alright, let’s just eat. No point wasting all this good food.”

Felicia wasn’t hungry, but she forced herself to eat a few bites. She refused to let a jerk ruin her entire night.

Still, the alcohol hit her fast and her head started spinning.

Right then, her phone buzzed.
