The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 709

Max stared at her.

During the few seconds of silence, the air pressure in the room seemed to drop. Felicia refused to look at him.

"Are you planning to settle down there?" His voice was perfectly calm, devoid of a single ripple, yet it exuded an invisible, suffocating authority.

Felicia could not help but curl her fingers into tight fists.

Going to Cloudville indeed meant she would be staying there for a long time. As for settling down there permanently, she had not thought that far ahead. Everything had happened too suddenly. She could not just resign from Roen Capital and play right into someone else's hands.

However, the interrogating tone in his voice sparked an irrational surge of anger within her. "It is none of your business," she replied coolly.

"Fine, Felicia." The man's voice grew even colder. "It seems you never had any intention of discussing your plans with me."

Felicia glared at him, refusing to back down. "What would be the point of discussing it with you? You claim to respect me, but it is nothing more than a casual joke to you."

As she spoke, she suddenly let out a cold, mocking laugh.

"You allowed everything to happen. You turned a blind eye to what Dannie did, all because you wanted me to resign from Roen Capital. In your eyes, I am just a tool you can control at will. But Max, you do not get to do whatever you please."

As her words faded, the temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees.

Max narrowed his dark eyes, his gaze profound and unreadable.

Felicia had blurted it all out in one breath. Unable to control her emotions in the moment, her breathing turned ragged. She looked away toward the window, trying her best to calm herself down.

A brief silence ensued.

You could hear a pin drop, and the tension in the room was pulled taut like a string ready to snap.

"Since you are so eager to leave, I will not stop you. But before you go, you had better make sure Anne accepts Olisha."

Upon hearing this, Felicia's pupils dilated in shock. She whipped her head around to stare at Max.
