The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback (Felicia and Max) novel Chapter 899

"Speaking of which, how did the two of you even end up together in the first place?" Felicia asked. She had never actually asked about this before. Initially, she had assumed there was absolutely no chance of them ever rekindling things, and later, there simply seemed to be no point in dragging up the past.

Savannah leaned back, getting lost in the memories. "It is actually quite dramatic when you think about it. I fell in love with him at first sight during my freshman year of high school. He was two years older than me, and he was undeniably the most famous guy in school. He was an academic god who consistently ranked first in every subject, and he was incredibly handsome to boot. He was just so intensely cold. No matter who pursued him, short, fat, pretty, or ugly, he brutally rejected every single one of them. There were even rampant rumors going around that he liked men."

"Naturally, I was one of the many girls he rejected. I completely refused to accept it at the time. I had a great body and a gorgeous face. What right did he have to reject me? I was absolutely dead set on getting my hands on him. So, I chased him all the way into college. When he eventually went off to study in the United States, I constantly flew out to find him. I cannot even begin to count how many times his rejections broke my heart during those years."

"Right when I was finally on the verge of giving up, he returned to the country. Out of nowhere, he called me and said he wanted to be my boyfriend. In that exact moment, I honestly felt like the sun had finally risen in my life. I was so ecstatic that I could not sleep for the entire night. Only much later did I discover that the Curtis family was preparing to arrange blind dates for him. Looking back on it now, he had absolutely no power to refuse the Curtis family's demands back then. I was nothing more than a convenient meat shield for him to use as an excuse. But, of course, I was entirely willing to play the part."

Felicia listened in quiet awe. Looking at it this way, their experiences were shockingly similar. The only difference was that back then, Savannah had been incredibly beautiful, fiercely confident, and fully equipped with the capital to pursue what she wanted.

Felicia, on the other hand, had entirely lacked that confidence. She had only been able to bury her love deep within her heart, completely lacking the courage to take a single step forward. She had never even dared to dream of actually being with Max. Back then, her only pathetic hope was to stay by his side and earn his minimal approval. That alone would have been enough for her.

Yet, fate had relentlessly intertwined their lives anyway. It perfectly validated the old saying: no matter how meticulously you calculate your plans, it can never compare to a single, effortless stroke of destiny's pen.

"Looking at it that way, you must be the only girl he has ever actually dated," Felicia pointed out.
