The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 819

Max's dark eyes deepened. "Who told you I want a divorce, Mom?"

Tatiana froze for a moment. She looked at her son and asked with utmost seriousness, "Max, do you really intend to keep dragging things out with her like this?"

Max did not answer her question. His attitude remained unchanged, and his tone was exceptionally heavy. "Answer my question first, Mom."

Tatiana let out a breath. "You are my son. Do you think I don't understand you?"

If she handed him that divorce agreement now, Max would definitely investigate who was behind it, and Dannie would surely be implicated. So, in the end, she chose to say nothing.

Max looked at his mother. His handsome face was dark and unreadable, making it impossible to tell whether he believed her or not.

Tatiana averted her gaze, lacking the courage to keep meeting her son's intense stare. She sighed. "I am just lucky I did not end up in the hospital from the sheer anger she caused me today. When have I ever been insulted like this? She isn’t just insulting me. It is an insult to you, and to the entire Hawthorne family."

"She wouldn't have come looking for you if you hadn't done something to provoke her."

Hearing Max defend Felicia only made Tatiana's chest tighten with frustration, and a wave of deep sorrow washed over her. She looked at her son again. "Are you really going to protect her and blame your own mother, Max? Your father and I only have you. We just want what is best for you. We do not want to see you hurt because of Felicia. She nearly smashed something over my head today. The fact that I did not lay a hand on her shows I have already been more than merciful."

Tatiana spoke with deep emotional agitation. She turned her head away, her eyes growing red.

Seeing this, the nanny hurried forward to offer words of comfort. "Mrs. Hawthorne was so angry today that she suffered dizzy spells and chest pains. A doctor had to come over, run tests, and prescribe medication. She just managed to stabilize."

Just then, the front door opened.
