The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 822

After Anne fell asleep, Max tucked her into the bed in the master bedroom. Afterward, he went downstairs and looked at the woman sitting quietly on the sofa. She was staring at the television screen, but it was impossible to tell if she was actually absorbing any of it.

Max walked over and sat down beside her. He naturally wrapped an arm around her and held her hand warmly in his palm. The two of them sat in silence, neither uttering a single word.

It wasn't until the television drama finished broadcasting that Max looked at the woman in his arms. She remained completely motionless, her pupils seemingly unfocused as she stared into the void. He tightened his grip on her hand slightly and looked down at her. "What are you thinking about?"

A long while passed before Felicia finally spoke. "Max."

"Hmm?"

"Where is Olisha?" She had not seen the girl since she came back.

"She has already been sent back to Australia," Max replied.

Felicia did not press the issue further. The atmosphere fell silent once again.

An unknown amount of time passed before Felicia spoke slowly. "I already stamped the divorce agreement." Her voice lacked any emotional fluctuation, resembling a pool of stagnant, rippleless water.

Max's grip on her hand tightened sharply. "Why a stamp? Why didn't you sign it?"

"It makes no difference," Felicia said. "And I don't need your compensation."

The wind howled through the night outside. In the quiet, brightly lit living room, the man lowered his head, casting a small shadow that obscured the light. The dimness traced the perfect lines of his profile. His expression remained as calm as ever, but his dark pupils were as dangerous as an abyss.

"Is divorce truly the choice you want? Have you thought about whether you can really be happy after a divorce? The day you returned from Australia, Anne's heart was acting up. A mother and daughter must share a physical connection."
