The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 960

Felicia tried to sit up. Tommy hurriedly adjusted the hospital bed to a comfortable angle and fluffed the pillows behind her back.

She quietly asked him not to breathe a word of this to anyone. Tommy knew she meant keeping it a secret from Jeremy. Although he was deeply concerned about her condition, he could not bring himself to go against Evelynn’s wishes. He simply nodded and promised to keep his mouth shut.

A nurse walked into the room to deliver Felicia's prescribed vitamins. She went over the necessary precautions and suggested that the surgery could be scheduled for the following week. Once they left the ward and headed downstairs, Tommy paid the medical bills before driving her away from the hospital. He fully intended to take her straight home to rest.

"Take me to the office," Felicia instructed from the passenger seat.

"I think you really need to rest today. Your health has to come first," Tommy pleaded gently.

"I'm fine now. Let's just go grab something to eat at Southside Borough first," she insisted.

Seeing that she would not be swayed, Tommy had no choice but to agree. She had only received an IV drip of glucose at the hospital and had not eaten a single thing all day, leaving her stomach completely empty.

When they arrived at Zane’s Pho House in Southside Borough, the rich aroma of the broth instantly stirred her appetite. Felicia managed to finish an entire bowl of hearty Pho. Watching her actually eat something substantial finally allowed Tommy to breathe a sigh of relief. Afterward, he drove her to the company headquarters.

Felicia immediately threw herself back into her work. She spent the entire morning attending meetings and meticulously reviewing crucial project data. At noon, Tommy brought her lunch, making sure to select mild, easily digestible foods with no overpowering scents. By the end of the long workday, no one in the office could tell anything was wrong, other than noticing she looked a bit thinner than before. Only Felicia herself could feel the heavy toll on her body. She lacked her usual boundless energy and found it difficult to juggle multiple tasks at once.

When she returned home that evening, Felicia dutifully took the vitamins Dr. Halloway had prescribed, and she tossed the rest of her old medication straight into the trash.

After washing up, she leaned back against her headboard with her tablet, scrolling through listings for nearby apartments. Whenever she found one that looked promising, she forwarded the link to Tommy, asking him to check it out the next day.

Tommy quickly replied with a simple message of agreement. Just then, Jeremy called him, primarily to check on Felicia's condition. Tommy hesitated for a moment before deciding to keep her secret. "She is doing perfectly fine," he lied.
