The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 1023

Max cast a fleeting glance at her before coldly turning away. Faced with his icy indifference, Andrea bit her lip, her fingers tightening on the door handle. "Max, I'm so sorry. Please, I just need a favor."

Max offered no response. The driver marched over, shielding Max from her view. "Miss, please step aside."

Refusing to give up, Andrea pleaded frantically, "Max, someone is following me..."

The driver firmly shut the door. "Miss, if you don't move, I will call security."

Staring at the closed door, Andrea didn't dare push her luck. Seeing she had frozen in place, the driver returned to the front seat and started the engine. Andrea stood alone in the street, her eyes narrowing as she watched the car slowly drive away.

Later that afternoon, Felicia attended a meeting with a corporate partner. The opposing representative was none other than Dannie. Dannie had recently resigned from BlueMarble Investments and secured a position at this new firm, stepping directly into the role of Project Director.

Just the day before, Dannie had shown up at Roen Capital to deliver lunch for Jeremy, only to be denied entry. Her intentions were painfully obvious. She’s aggressively pursuing him. But what Felicia found even more surprising was the gossip Heather had shared: Jeremy's parents, Adrian and Shannon, were already well acquainted with Dannie. They had even shared a meal. Adrian, in particular, was highly impressed with Dannie, finding her exceptional and a perfect match for his son.

Heather had been furious. "I don't know who introduced her to my parents, but they adore her. My mom even told me to spend more time bonding with her."

Felicia recalled the phone call Jeremy had received from his mother days ago. They had likely been discussing this exact situation. Dannie was a master of self-packaging. To earn an audience with Adrian and Shannon, she must have put on a flawless performance. And now, she was sitting in Roen Capital as a business partner. Felicia had to admit the woman was resourceful.
