The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 578

Felicia stared at him, her mind a mess. Sunlight spilled in from the window, brushing his shoulders in a soft glow. The way he stared at her was intense, almost like she was the only girl he’d ever truly loved.

“Of course.”

His voice was gentle, a warm breeze that slid straight into her chest. It was so easy to believe, just for a second, that she meant everything to him.

Felicia caught herself before she fell too deep. She shot him a look, pushed him away, and sat up.

Max didn’t try to stop her. He got up too, reaching for her hand with a small smile. “I still haven’t buttoned my shirt.”

Felicia pulled her hand back and glared at him, losing patience. “Max, will you just give it a rest?”

Her words barely faded when a phone started vibrating.

It was Max’s. He crossed the room, glanced at the caller ID, and picked up.

Cian’s voice came through, laughing. “Still not finished over there?”

Max rolled his eyes. “Is now really the best time to call?”

Cian just laughed harder. “Alright, alright. Wrap it up. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have invited you today. You and Evelynn could’ve stayed home and had your fun.”

Max ended the call, buttoned his shirt, and straightened his clothes.

“Let’s go.”

He reached for her hand again, but Felicia sidestepped him and walked straight for the door.

His hand closed on air. He could only smile helplessly, watching her walk away before following her out.
