The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 1226

Darin and the rest of the groomsmen arrived at the estate three days before the wedding. Handing Felicia a beautifully wrapped wedding gift, Darin spoke softly. Initially assuming the gift was from him, she froze the moment he opened his mouth. "Mom asked me to give this to you," he said quietly.

Felicia's expression immediately stiffened. She knew exactly which mother he was referring to. Hearing his words, she lowered her gaze, completely unsure of how she was supposed to respond.

"She doesn't expect your forgiveness," Darin continued gently. "She only hopes that you will find true happiness from now on."

Felicia stared at the elegant box in her hands, remaining completely silent. Seeing her reaction, Darin decided not to push the subject any further and quietly stepped away. Felicia continued to stare at the box for a long time before finally, slowly opening it. Inside lay a breathtaking, complete set of exquisite jewelry. Judging by the flawless craftsmanship and stunning design, it was undeniably priceless.

She gazed at the jewels quietly for a moment. When she finally looked up, a faint, undeniable sheen of moisture had gathered in her eyes. It was time to let everything from the past officially end here.

The night before the wedding, Felicia found herself completely unable to sleep. She tossed and turned, pulling the heavy duvet tight around her.

"Can't sleep?" Max murmured, sliding his arms around her from behind.

Felicia kept her back to him. "You're still awake too?"

"I am having a bit of trouble sleeping. Do you want to do something else to pass the time?" Max suggested wickedly.

Felicia immediately kicked backward, her foot connecting squarely with his leg.

Max chuckled deeply, his chest vibrating against her back. "I was only joking. I am perfectly capable of waiting until tomorrow night."

"Is there absolutely nothing else in your head besides filthy thoughts?" Felicia scoffed.

"I have never claimed to be a saint. It's the middle of the night, my gorgeous wife is right here in my arms, and you expect me to sit still and do nothing? Don't tell me you don't want it too," Max teased relentlessly. He leaned in close, his hot breath brushing against the sensitive skin of her ear, sending wave after wave of electricity coursing through her body. Felicia clenched her hands into tight fists. Though she desperately didn't want to admit it, she was incredibly aroused. The intense, addictive pleasure he always gave her was impossible to deny. However, she absolutely refused to walk down the aisle tomorrow covered in conspicuous love bites.
