The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 681

Hearing this, the man’s grip loosened slightly. He took her hands in his and sighed softly. “It won’t happen again. From now on, I’ll discuss things with you first.”

He always spoke with that same tone of absolute control.

Felicia yanked her hands away and turned her back to him, creating distance. She walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows and took a deep breath, her profile tense and her expression grim.

From the 39th floor, she couldn’t make out the details below, but she could see the blurred shapes of the crowd that had gathered at the main entrance.

Max stood where he was, watching her quietly.

For a moment, the vast office was so silent you could hear a pin drop.

Just then, the intercom buzzed again.

Max turned and pressed the button. Isaac’s respectful voice came through the speaker. “Mr. Hawthorne, there’s a meeting document that needs your approval.”

“Come in.”

“Yes, sir.”

Isaac entered a moment later.

The instant he walked in, he saw Evelynn standing by the windows.

He was certain of one thing now. Felicia must have married Mr. Hawthorne five years ago, using a baby to secure her position, which was why Mr. Hawthorne had despised her so much back then.

But now, the tables had completely turned.

Mr. Hawthorne adored their child. In five years, Evelynn had completely transformed herself. She had left her child behind and taken a gamble that had finally paid off.

He felt a genuine sense of admiration for her.
