The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 680

Felicia strode to the front desk.

She took off her sunglasses. “Hello, I’m here to see Max.”

The receptionist recognized her instantly. They had all seen the company announcement and knew not to waste a second.

“This way, Mrs. Hawthorne.”

At the words “Mrs. Hawthorne,” Felicia’s eyes darkened, but she said nothing.

The receptionist hurried forward to swipe a keycard, unlocking the private elevator for the CEO.

Felicia walked in without a word.

Even after the elevator doors closed, the receptionist remained bowed respectfully in its direction.

Inside the CEO’s office, Max was on the phone with Darin.

“Max, did you even talk to Felicia before you went public with your relationship? Did you respect her wishes at all?” Darin’s tone was exceptionally harsh.

Max, however, sounded perfectly calm. “Was there a better solution? Even if we had suppressed the rumors, it wouldn’t have done anything to restore her reputation.”

Darin gripped his phone tighter. “Are you really concerned about Felicia’s reputation, or was this for your own selfish reasons?”

Max paused for a moment before replying, “Then you can just assume it was for my own selfish reasons.”

The other end of the line went silent.

Just then, the intercom buzzed.

Max said to Darin, “Let’s discuss this after you get back to the Capital.”

He hung up and pressed the button for the intercom.

“Mr. Hawthorne, Evelynn is here to see you.”
