The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 682

Darin asked, "Dad, is Felicia home?"

"She just got back," Colton replied. "She didn't look well, so I told her to go upstairs and rest."

Hearing this, Darin's brow furrowed.

Colton sighed again. "Now that Max has gone public with their relationship, he seems dead set against divorcing Felicia. I mean, we just hope he was genuinely committed to your sister. After all, Anne is still so young. She's such a sweet, well-behaved girl, and the child is always the most innocent one. Honestly, I don't want to see Anne get hurt either. But I'm afraid he's only doing this on a whim."

Darin knew exactly what Max was thinking.

Whether it’s love between a man and a woman or marriage, in Max's eyes, these were cheap pursuits for ordinary people. He could enjoy them, but he would never indulge in them, never let himself be swayed by any emotion.

That's how he used to be.

But Anne's arrival had slowly started to change his perspective. He needed to give Anne a complete family, which meant he needed Felicia. Love or no love, she was a necessary part of this family unit. She, like Anne, had become one of his interests. And as the head of the family, he needed to control Felicia, emotionally and physically.

So Darin believed that since Max had made a public announcement, this was definitely not just a whim.

But Max hadn't considered that Felicia was an independent person who would never be anyone's subordinate. His current actions were just a forceful attempt to pull her into his domain, using Anne and public pressure to corner her.

Darin offered some comfort. "Dad, tell Felicia to rest at home for a while. You and Ava should stay with her and just try to live normally. Tell her not to overthink things. I'll figure out how to handle their situation."

Colton nodded. "Okay, I understand."

After a few more words, Colton hung up.

Ava said, "What can we do now, unless we're willing to completely burn that bridge?"
