The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 961

"Ma'am, when did you get back? You didn't even let us know," one of the nannies asked in surprise. They had only come by to clean and maintain the empty house, completely unaware that Felicia had been staying there.

"I was only here for a couple of days. I'm moving out today," Felicia replied smoothly.

The nannies exchanged bewildered glances. "Why the sudden move, Ma'am? Did something happen?"

Felicia offered a polite smile but gave no explanation as she headed upstairs to pack. Tommy followed closely behind to carry her suitcase down. The two nannies stood awkwardly in the living room, watching helplessly as Felicia prepared to leave. Once she and Tommy were out the door, the first nanny turned to the other.

"Should we call Mr. Hawthorne?" she asked hesitantly.

"It looks like they are having serious relationship problems. But Mr. Hawthorne didn't give us any instructions, so we better let him know," the second nanny agreed.

The nanny quickly dialed Max's number. It connected almost immediately.

"Hello." Max's voice was sharp and impatient.

"Mr. Hawthorne, Mrs. Hawthorne moved out today."

At those words, Max's expression darkened instantly. Even through the phone, the heavy, oppressive silence radiating from him was palpable. "When did she get back to Cloudville?" he demanded, his voice dropping to a dangerous register.

"We aren't sure, sir. We just came to clean today and ran into her. From what she said, she had already been staying here for two days," the nanny explained nervously.
