The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 248

For most lawyers, this would have been an easy divorce case. For Sam, who usually handled high-stakes breakups with eye-watering amounts of money on the line, it was almost too simple.

Naturally, Sam suggested Felicia could claim a share of Max’s assets. He’d already looked into Max’s background and knew his official net worth was well over a hundred billion. This could have turned into one of those headline-making, jaw-dropping settlements.

But Felicia turned him down. Max had already given half of everything to Anne, and that was enough for her. Getting money involved would only drag things out. She just wanted a clean break, no lingering drama.

Sam saw she meant it, so he didn’t push. He agreed to take her case and started preparing to resubmit all the evidence. Felicia squared up her bill with Cameron that same day.

After they wrapped up, it was almost noon. Felicia invited Sam out to lunch, and over their meal, they chatted a bit more. The biggest issue now was the other side. The courts had gotten stricter lately, and they weren’t just going to grant a divorce for any one-sided reason. Still, because Felicia’s request was so straightforward, Sam promised he’d work things out with the court and get a hearing within thirty days.

“Thank you, Sam. Really. Let me buy you a drink,” Felicia said, raising her glass.

Lunch ended, and they walked out of the restaurant together. Right outside, they bumped into Wyatt.

Wyatt spotted Felicia and greeted her first. “Evelynn.”

She nodded politely. “Mr. Gilbert.”

That was it. Just a quick hello, then they each went their own way.

As Wyatt headed inside with his colleague, the other man glanced back and muttered, “Wyatt, that girl is stunning. Whose wife is she? She looks like she’s about to walk away with a fortune.”

Wyatt frowned. “What makes you say that?”

“Come on. She was with Sam. That guy only handles huge divorces, and the settlements always start with at least ten zeroes.”
