The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 664

“You’re working with the Curtis family now. It’s only a matter of time before your interests align. Or, I could help you. I can make sure Max and Evelynn get a divorce. Then you’ll have your chance to pursue her.”

Jeremy’s handsome face darkened, his voice dropping even colder with a warning. “Holden, we still have a score to settle. You should think carefully about where you are right now. If you dare to make a move on Evelynn, I’ll make sure you don’t walk out of here.”

Just then, a knock sounded at the door.

Jeremy dismissed him. “You should leave now.”

Holden composed himself. “Fine. I won’t interrupt your work.”

After Holden left, Jeremy’s assistant came in to report on work matters.

By the time he finished, it was nearly six o’clock. He took out his phone and called Felicia. She answered quickly, her tone normal. “Hi, Jeremy.”

“Have you eaten?”

“Not yet.”

“Let’s grab some dinner together, then. What are you in the mood for?”

“I already ordered room service,” Felicia said. “I’m a little tired today and don’t feel like going out.”

Jeremy didn’t push her. “Alright. What did you do this afternoon that wore you out so much?”

Felicia gave a vague, evasive answer.

After they hung up, Jeremy put his phone down, his brow furrowed. He hadn’t missed the exhaustion in her voice. It wasn’t the kind of tiredness from a fun day out. It was something weighing on her mind, something she didn’t want to share with him.

It could only be about Max.

His hand tightened around his phone, his dark eyes gleaming as he fell deep into thought.

In her hotel room, Felicia picked up her glass of red wine and drained it in one go. A flush crept up her cheeks from the alcohol. She leaned her head back against the sofa and stared at the ceiling, her glistening eyes filled with an unspeakable weariness.

Knock, knock, knock.
