The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 359

One of the men, dressed in a crisp white suit and sporting a trendy haircut, caught on right away. “So you’re the Evelynn everyone keeps talking about. The rumors don’t do you justice. You’re even more impressive in person.”

These days, Evelynn’s name was everywhere in the finance world. People talked about her talent, of course, but it was her beauty and elegance that had everyone fascinated. Some even said she was so stunning that Andrea looked plain next to her. Naturally, everyone wanted to see for themselves what Evelynn was really like.

Felicia just gave a warm, polite smile. “You flatter me, sir.”

The man stepped closer and introduced himself. “I’m Cian Folker. It’s a real pleasure to finally meet you, Evelynn.”

He was from the Folker family, another one of those elite families at the very top in the Capital.

“Hello Mr. Folker,” Felicia replied, her tone respectful.

Cian glanced at her with a playful grin. “So, Evelynn, do you have a boyfriend?” He was joking, but there was a hint of seriousness in his voice.

Wyatt laughed. “Cian, you’re way too straightforward. Careful, you might scare her off.”

Cian just chuckled. “No harm in asking, right? If I’m out of line, Evelynn, I apologize.”

Felicia answered easily. “No worries. And no, I don’t have a boyfriend.”

Cian’s smile widened. “Then, would you mind if we exchanged numbers?”

“Sure, that’s fine.”

As Felicia and Cian swapped contact info, Wyatt glanced over at Max, who had been standing quietly off to the side the whole time, his eyes dark and impossible to read. Wyatt couldn’t tell what he was thinking, so he just sighed to himself and let it go.

Suddenly, a voice called out, “Evelynn!”

Anne came running over, her cheeks rosy and hair damp with sweat from playing, clutching a fresh-picked flower in her hand. “Evelynn, look!”

She held the flower out proudly. Felicia bent down, leaning in to sniff it. A soft breeze lifted a few strands of her hair, and with that gentle, genuine smile, she looked even lovelier than the flower itself.

Max kept his eyes on Felicia. “Do you like it?”

Anne’s eyes were shining, waiting for Felicia’s answer.

Felicia looked at Anne, then reached out and gently took the flower from Max. She didn’t look at him, instead turning toward Anne and offering the flower back. “Why don’t you hold onto this for me, Anne?”

Anne blinked, a little confused. “But Evelynn, you didn’t answer Daddy.”

Felicia smiled softly. “I do like it,” she said, but her words were only for Anne.

Anne grinned, completely satisfied.

Cian had watched the whole scene play out. He looked over at Max. If he didn’t already know about Max and Andrea, he might actually believe there was something going on between these two. He slung an arm around Max’s shoulders, laughing. “Seriously, Max, who’s the lucky woman who gave you such an adorable daughter?”
