The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 401

Trey had gone back home for a while to be with Yara. He only got any updates on Heather through his daughter.

“Heather’s single now. Isn’t it normal for her to want a boyfriend?” Felicia said, her tone a little defensive.

Trey’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “You really didn’t waste any time, did you?”

Felicia frowned, confused. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

He looked at her, his eyes cold. “You pushed Heather to divorce me, just so you could set her up with your brother. Isn’t that what you’ve been after all along?”

Felicia knew Trey hated her. Heather used to love him so much, always did whatever he said. Trey was convinced the only reason Heather insisted on the divorce was because Felicia kept talking to her, making sure she never forgave him.

“So you can mess around with other girls, but Heather’s supposed to just forgive you, no questions asked?” Felicia shot back.

Trey’s smile tightened. “And what, you think you’re any better?”

Luke’s voice cut in, low and icy. “Watch what you say.”

Trey shot him a look, then turned back to Felicia. “You’ve hooked up with plenty of guys yourself.”

He barely finished the sentence before Luke’s fist crashed into his face.

Trey staggered back, nearly falling.

Felicia gasped, grabbing Luke’s arm as he looked ready to go again. “Luke, stop. He’s not worth it.”

Trey straightened, wiping blood from the corner of his mouth. His glare was sharp and cold, fixed on Luke.

“Trey, I’d watch your mouth if I were you,” Gavin said. The usual lazy grin was gone from his face, replaced by something dead serious.

Trey looked over at Gavin.

Right then, Holden stepped out from the room. He walked to Trey’s side, took in his bruised face, then let his gaze drift from Luke to Felicia. His eyes were dark and impossible to read. “Evelynn, we’ll meet again soon.”

He turned and walked off.

Trey looked at Luke, voice low and threatening. “I won’t forget this punch.”

Then he followed Holden out.

“What do you need me to do?” she asked.

Jeremy shook his head. “Just focus on your own work for now.”

“Okay.”

Jeremy glanced at Gavin.

Gavin caught the look instantly and raised his hands in surrender. “Don’t drag me into this. I’m just here for the entertainment.”

Jeremy just let it go.

Later, Luke drove Felicia to the police station so she could file for an emergency restraining order. It was approved right away.

Somewhere else, Holden was reading the email notification. He gave a cold laugh, sitting beside Max. He lifted his glass and took a slow sip. “Ran into Evelynn at the hospital today.”

Max didn’t react, just sipped his own drink, his expression unreadable.

Holden smirked. “She’s got plenty of admirers. How many times do you think she’s slept with Jeremy?”
