The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 445

Felicia didn’t look at him. She turned to Anne and said, “Come on, Anne, it’s time to head down the mountain.” It was way too cold up there for them to stay any longer.

After snapping a few pictures with their snowman, they took the cable car back down.

When they got back to the hotel, Jeremy, Greg, and everyone else had already left. Felicia led Anne back to their room to pack up. They hadn’t brought much, just a few things for Anne. Once they were done, they headed out together.

Max noticed the bag in Felicia’s hand and the little suitcase Anne was dragging along. He walked over and took Anne’s suitcase without a word. Then he glanced at the bag Felicia still held.

“Let me take that one too,” he said.

Felicia shook her head. “No, it’s alright. I’ve got it.”

Anne looked at her and said, “Mom, Dad’s a guy. He’s supposed to help you carry stuff.”

Before Felicia could answer, Max had already taken the bag from her. Her hand felt almost awkwardly empty. She looked at him and said, “You really don’t have to be this thorough.”

Anne, of course, had no idea what she meant.

Max just glanced at her, his eyes as dark and unreadable as ever. He gave her a little smile and said gently, “Let’s go.”

Downstairs, a Rolls-Royce was waiting for them at the entrance. They got in and the car pulled away from the hotel. The drive back to the city would take nearly three hours on the highway. Anne, tired from waking up early and climbing the mountain, curled up and fell asleep almost as soon as they were on the road.

While Anne slept, Max pulled the memory card from his camera and plugged it into his computer. Felicia sat quietly, watching the snowy scenery blur past the window.

Her phone rang. It was Ava.

“Felicia, are you coming home today?”
