The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 440

The two kids ran over to Luke and Greg, bundled up so much they looked like little penguins waddling across the snow.

Luke caught them, pulling them close. “Did you have fun?”

Yara beamed at Greg, her smile bright and full of excitement. “So much fun!”

Max came over. “Anne and Yara want to go up the mountain to see their moms. Can you take them?”

Max had seen Heather at lunch but hadn’t mentioned anything to the girls. Greg knew Heather was in her hotel room, but Anne and Yara were clueless.

Luke hesitated for a second, glancing at Max.

Max met his eyes and said, “Take good care of Anne.”

Luke nodded.

It was around three in the afternoon when the three adults led the kids up the mountain.

“Evelynn!”

Felicia hurried over, knelt down, and wrapped Anne in a hug. “Are you cold?”

Anne shook her head. “No, I’m okay. Daddy said he’s busy and can’t come up to watch the sunset with us today. He said we can do it together next time, okay?”

Felicia was a little surprised. Did Max finally realize he wasn’t exactly welcome? For now, she just nodded and agreed.

They all stayed at the top of the mountain, waiting as the sun started to set.

The snowy peaks turned shades of orange and red, the clouds below glowing softly, filling the sky with gentle twilight colors.

Anne and Yara stood there in awe, unable to look away.

“Evelynn, look, isn’t it beautiful? It’s so pretty!”

Felicia snapped plenty of photos of Anne, trying to capture the moment.

Greg picked Yara up so she could see the sunset better. She squealed, totally thrilled.

Heather watched the kids and adults, feeling happy that everyone was getting along. She glanced over at Felicia and Anne, and noticed that both Luke and Jeremy were watching Felicia too. The golden sunlight fell on Felicia’s face, making her look like she was wrapped in a soft, warm glow. There was so much tenderness in their eyes, it felt like it could melt even the snow around them.
