The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 797

Darin offered a soft hum of confirmation. "I will be heading back to the Capital in a couple of days."

"Alright, I will see you when you get back," Felicia said, her voice laced with anticipation.

Hearing that hopefulness in her tone only made Darin's heart ache more. He forced a lightness into his voice. "Okay."

After ending the call, Felicia dialed Anne's number. It connected quickly.

"Anne."

"It is me."

Felicia's expression darkened the moment she recognized Tatiana's voice. Tatiana was looking after Anne at the old estate today. Felicia remained completely silent.

Tatiana's strict, biting tone came through the speaker. "Felicia, whether you are truly sick or just faking it, I am warning you to drop these pathetic little schemes of yours. Anne is not a tool for you to manipulate Max. He owes you absolutely nothing. Stop acting like some tragic victim whom the whole world has failed. I can see exactly what you are trying to do. You had better behave yourself. If you dare cause Anne or Max the slightest bit of harm, I will not let you get away with it."

In the past, Tatiana had merely despised Felicia for her background and appearance. Now, that disdain had morphed into pure hatred. Felicia's drama was deeply affecting Anne's emotional state, and Max had even dropped everything at work to take Felicia to Australia for treatment. How could her proud son lower himself to dote on a woman like her? A woman who belonged nowhere near their family. After everything that had happened, Tatiana's greatest fear was that Max had genuinely fallen in love with her.

Listening to Tatiana's harsh warning, Felicia's grip on her phone tightened dramatically. Without waiting for a response, Tatiana simply hung up.

After helping Yara wash up, Heather emerged from the bathroom and noticed Felicia sitting frozen on the sofa. Spotting her troubled expression instantly, Heather rushed over.

"Felicia, what is going on?" she asked with deep concern.

Felicia quickly masked her emotions, looking up with a tight smile. "It is nothing."

But Felicia's emotions were far too raw these days; she could not hide them at all. Heather sat down next to her and gently took her hand.
