The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 677

She called him back.

The phone was answered instantly.

Luke’s voice came through. “Hi, Felicia.”

Greg had already spoken with him, so he knew her current situation.

Felicia’s voice was steady as she asked, “How’s work going over there?”

“It’s going very smoothly,” Luke replied. “I’ll be back in a few days. I’ll treat you to dinner then.”

Felicia chuckled lightly. “You know I won’t say no to that.”

“I hope you won’t.”

…

They chatted for a bit longer.

Luke didn’t ask about the online scandal. Even though her tone was normal, he knew Felicia must be hurting inside.

He also knew there were people taking care of this for her, and there was nothing he could do.

“Luke, I’ll let you go for now. Let’s get together when you’re back.”

“Okay, sounds good.”

After hanging up, Felicia called Jeremy. He was already at the office.

“Felicia, can you come to the office?”

“Okay.”

Half an hour later, Felicia parked her car in the underground garage.

Reporters were swarming the main entrance of the building but were being held back by security.

Felicia took the elevator upstairs.

Along the way, employees greeted her as they normally would, but she could clearly feel the unusual, speculative glances from all around her.

It was unlikely anyone from within the company would target Felicia. The firm was undergoing an internal audit, and no one would dare to make a move at a time like this. That meant it had to be an external party.

Felicia’s brow furrowed in thought. “I think I have an idea who it might be.”

“Who?” Anthony asked.

Felicia didn’t answer him. It was just a guess, and she had no proof yet. Instead, she looked at Jeremy and said, “Regarding the Heathview investment, no matter what, I support your decision.”

Jeremy nodded slightly. “For now, we can only suppress this. Felicia, you should rest at home for the next few days. Handle any work remotely.”

Given the current situation, it was true that she wasn't suited to be in the office.

Felicia returned to her office and dialed a number. A moment later, she received a text with a new number. She immediately called it.

The call connected quickly. Dannie’s voice came through. “Hello, who is this?”

“It’s me.”

Dannie didn’t seem surprised. Her voice was calm as she replied, “Felicia. What can I do for you?”
