The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 929

Max hung up the phone and looked at Felicia. "Let's go. I will take you home first."

His words surprised Felicia. She had thought he would find some way to make her go with him. Just as she withdrew her gaze, he spoke again. "Do you want to come?"

Felicia stepped forward. "You had better just take me home."

Max strode after her and reached out to grasp her hand.

Half an hour later, they returned to the apartment. The butler had already arranged all their purchases neatly in the living room. Max went straight to the walk-in closet to change. By the time he had dressed and the staff had styled his hair, nearly forty minutes had passed.

Felicia waited in the living room. When the man emerged, he was the very picture of a corporate elite. Only his tie remained undone, draped casually over his hand.

Max looked at her. "Come here."

Felicia paused for a few seconds before walking over. She stopped right in front of him, took the tie from his hand, and reached up to loop it around his neck.

Max gazed down at the woman before him. His handsome face was gentle as he offered a soft reminder. "Do not tie it too tight this time."

Felicia paused at his words. She looked up, meeting his deep, mesmerizing dark eyes. "Thank you for the reminder."

Max raised an eyebrow.

On the final pull, Felicia deliberately yanked the silk knot tight. Just as she was about to pull her hands back, Max caught her wrists. His other arm wrapped firmly around her waist, and with a slight tug, he pressed her flush against his chest. His overwhelming, masculine scent descended upon her, carrying a fierce, radiating heat.
