The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 329

Felicia’s face was set, her expression unreadable. She took a long breath before saying, “I’ll try calling Anne first.”

Anthony just nodded.

Felicia pulled herself together and dialed Anne’s smartwatch. The call rang and rang, but no one picked up.

Anne must have left it upstairs in her bedroom and didn’t hear it. Felicia didn’t have the nanny’s number, either.

Anthony said, “Max will make sure Anne’s taken care of. If you’re worried, I can go to the Curtis family’s dinner on my own.”

Felicia thought about it for a moment. “I’ll go after the dinner’s over.”

She sent Anne a quick text.

They went to the restaurant for something to eat, but Felicia barely touched her food. She just didn’t have an appetite.

Before the dinner started, Anthony took her to pick out a dress. She chose a white gown with a simple, tailored fit. No fancy details, but it had this quiet, elegant vibe.

The dinner was at a five-star hotel owned by IronGate Industries.

The Curtis family had invited senior execs from their partner companies, but everyone knew Felicia and Anthony were the real stars of the night.

When they arrived at the banquet hall, Jim spotted them right away and hurried over to greet them.

Not long after, Hank showed up with Yvonne on his arm. She wore a dark green evening dress that showed off her figure, and her face was so refined and graceful that everyone in the room turned to look as she walked in.

Yvonne was basically royalty in Northwick’s social circles.

She was chatting with some guests when she caught sight of Felicia standing nearby. Her brow creased for a second, but she quickly smoothed out her expression and looked away.

Hank brought Yvonne over to greet Anthony and Felicia.

Hank sensed the tension and tried to lighten the mood. “Evelynn’s always so humble.”

Felicia just gave a small smile and let it drop.

Hank chatted with Anthony for a bit, then took his wife to mingle with other guests.

Jim came over with a group to introduce them to Anthony and Felicia.

Off to the side, Hank quietly asked his wife, “Did something happen between you and Evelynn?”

Yvonne just let out a soft sigh. “It’s nothing.”

Right then, a stir at the entrance caught everyone’s attention.

Felicia looked over instinctively and saw three people walking in.
