The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 73

That afternoon, Felicia’s phone buzzed. It was Jeremy. He’d already spoken to the chairman at Greenwell Clinical, and someone from their team would be reaching out to her father’s company later that day. Greenwell Clinical was one of the top real estate players in the country, easily matching Riverline Properties in terms of resources and power.

“I’ll take care of this for you. Don’t stress, just focus on your pregnancy and look after yourself,” Jeremy told her, his voice steady and reassuring.

Felicia felt a rush of gratitude. “I honestly owe you so much. Thank you.”

Jeremy set his phone down just as Anthony strolled in, catching the tail end of the call. With a sly grin, Anthony couldn’t resist poking fun. “So handsome and generous. Your students are really lucky to have you looking out for them.”

Jeremy shot him a look. “I have a part to play in this, so I need you to help keep an eye on things.”

Anthony’s uncle was the chairman of Greenwell Clinical, and Anthony himself held shares in the company. He was already in the loop about Riverline Properties turning down the Brightfield Digital acquisition. Still, Jeremy’s words made him curious.

“My responsibility? Wait, is this about Andrea?” Anthony asked, raising an eyebrow.

Jeremy took a sip of his coffee, not bothering to deny it.

Anthony caught on quickly. He hopped up to sit on the edge of Jeremy’s desk, shaking his head. “So Miss Curtis isn’t over you, huh? She’s got Max now, but she’s still hung up on you. The one you can’t have is always the most tempting, I guess. Do you think Max knows she used to chase after you?”

Jeremy picked up a thick file and handed it to Anthony, maybe with a little more force than necessary. Anthony caught it with both hands.

“If you’ve got time to gossip, you’ve got time to get some actual work done,” Jeremy said.
