The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 1070

That evening, Max took Felicia to the Zenith for dinner, which included a twenty-minute private fireworks show. Felicia watched the display, the colorful explosions reflecting in her eyes, yet her expression remained entirely devoid of emotion.

The man observed her soft profile and finally asked, "Do you not like it?"

Felicia withdrew her gaze and looked at the man sitting across from her. She had truly seen through to his core. When he was in a good mood and cared about her, he could shower her with endless protection and romance. But the moment his feelings shifted, he could turn on her without a second thought. No matter the situation, he always stood on an absolute pedestal of dominance. She simply could not endure that kind of emotional whiplash anymore.

The deafening sound of the fireworks came to an abrupt halt.

"It's not that I don't like it," Felicia said, her tone perfectly even. "I just think there's no point in you doing this."

Max's eyes darkened as he stared at her. "Then what do you think would have a point?"

Felicia picked up her spoon, shaking her head slightly. "Not everyone cares about these material expressions of affection. All I want is stability and peace."

"So you believe I can't give you that, is that it?" he asked.

Felicia looked down, eating a small bite of her food before meeting his gaze again. "What if I say yes?"

Max's eyes locked onto her, and the atmosphere around them seemed to drop in temperature. Felicia said nothing more. She merely offered a faint, polite smile and looked away. "I'm full..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the man across from her spoke. "We can try again."

Felicia froze, staring at him in surprise.

"You think I can't give you stability, but your own heart is just as unsteady. Why don't we both commit this time and just try?" Max proposed.

By the end of the night, Felicia had not given him an answer.
