The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 572

Bringing Felicia to this party today was all about helping her blend into the crowd. As the newest Hawthorne family member, these social gatherings were going to become her new normal sooner or later.

Felicia had timed everything perfectly, marrying Max right when her pregnancy came to light. Then she’d abandoned her child and jetted off overseas. Those five years changed her. She came back dazzling, and now the man who once couldn’t stand her was the one lowering his pride, trying to win her back. Every step Felicia took was risky, but she never missed a beat. If she’d slipped up even once, she would have lost everything.

From a bankrupt family to marrying into the Hawthornes—it was a huge leap up. Clearly, Felicia’s determination and ambition weren’t something most people could even compare to. It made sense she’d be with Max.

But from the way they acted tonight, you could see they hadn’t really made up yet. Both of them played their cards close to the chest. It was hard to tell who would eventually outmaneuver the other.

While Felicia was lost in thought, she noticed Kate glancing her way. Felicia gave her a small, polite smile.

Kate leaned in a little. “Not used to all this yet, are you?”

The question caught a few people off guard. Kate’s tone sounded almost friendly, like they were old acquaintances.

Felicia shrugged. “It’s not too bad.”

Kate smiled, her eyes soft. “You’ll get used to it. These get-togethers happen all the time.”

Felicia nodded, murmuring her agreement. They didn’t say much more after that.

Meanwhile, Darin had arrived at the party too. Cian stepped up to greet him.
