Andrea's eyes gleamed with an open challenge as she stared directly at her. I'm sorry, Evelynn, but I also enjoy this set. I also don't give up easily when I want something. Max sat next to her, silently swirling his wine as she spoke. His cold, detached demeanor was tough to discern. Felicia calmly met Andrea's gaze. "Is that accurate? I hope the best woman comes out on top. The bidding had already surged during their conversation, surpassing thirty-one million after three swift rounds.Andrea didn't think twice. Raising her paddle, she exclaimed, "Fifty million." Everybody in the room turned to look at the main table. It was obvious that no one else would get this set tonight. Felicia lifted her own paddle with composure. 60 million. You could feel the tension in the room. Sitting between them, the auction host could see the tension rising, every nerve taut. Everyone else faded into the background as this became a confrontation between two women.Sitting silently next to them, Max a

With a gentle tone, Max observed Andrea. "Why do you still look upset?" Andrea looked up at him. His gaze was so kind that she immediately felt happier. She grinned. came back as she said, "I'm not upset. Thank you, Max." "That's all that matters." Andrea turned to face Felicia, her eyes glimmering with contentment. Felicia and Jeremy were having a quiet conversation. Despite her best efforts to ignore her surroundings, the momentary silence in the room allowed her to hear every word that Andrea and Max exchanged. To be honest, it made her feel ill.Nicholas stood up and moved over to make a phone call. He instructed someone not to put the sapphire and diamond ring up for sale and asked them to hold it for him. The auction continued. The painting Jeremy had been viewing was eventually the next thing up. Felicia had anticipated that Max would attempt to outbid Jeremy or at the very least annoy him. On the outside, everyone was kind, but they were fiercely competitive behind closed door

Chapter 273 "Anne, I may be occupied for a while longer. You should go to bed first if you're exhausted. "Anne sulked. "No, I would rather wait for you. I'd like us to share a bed." Anne was now tucked in every night by Felicia. They had been accustomed to it. Felicia reasoned that she could wait until Anne was sleeping before leaving if Max was coming home tonight. I will be a little while. "Be good, okay?" "Alright." I'll wait for you to return and be well." Okay.Felicia put down her phone and turned to see Jeremy leave. Has the appraisal been completed? Jeremy gave a nod. Yes, I did sign all of the documents. Let's head out. Jeremy and Felicia had arrived today. He said, "Do you want to go home?" Could you please drop me off at Oakridge Estate? Felicia inquired. Jeremy looked at her. "Anne's waiting for you, isn't she? "Yes, I must see her. Until I snuggle her in, she won't go to sleep.Jeremy remained silent, only nodding and averting his gaze. Felicia stepped out of the car as i

Chapter 274: There was a protracted silence. "Where is Anne?" Max inquired. At last, Marian raised her gaze to him, her nervousness evident in her eyes. "Miss Anne is by herself in her room. Felicia simply went upstairs. Max glanced at them both before turning to go up the steps. Marian and Amaris didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he was far out of sight. When Felicia arrived at Anne's bedroom, she opened the door. Anne was flipping through a comic book while lying on her stomach on the bed with her legs flying in the air.Anne turned to face the door as soon as she heard it. She merely gazed, caught in shock, when she spotted Felicia. Felicia approached and took a seat at the bed's edge. She couldn't help but grin when she saw Anne's gaping lips and wide eyes. "What's up, Anne?" After a few blinks, Anne abruptly turned over and pushed herself into Felicia's arms. "You're really lovely. You resemble an angel. No, you are even more beautiful than an angel. Additionally, you have a

Felicia watched Anne sleep as she sat by her side. After a few more minutes of just listening to Anne's gentle breathing, she eventually got up. To change, she sneaked inside Anne's walk-in closet. She had stored a few garments in the back, nestled amid Anne's skirts, ever since she moved here. She removed her jewelry, put on new clothing, and placed everything in a little bag.When she emerged, she stopped at the door and looked back at Anne, who was lying calmly on the bed. Hesitancy wrenched her heart. Ultimately, though, she forced herself to go despite the pain. She nearly ran into Max as he emerged from his room into the corridor. Felicia spoke in a steady, calm tone. "I'm heading out. Inform Anne first thing in the morning. Max's gaze darted to the bag she was holding. Felicia was about to leave when he spoke. What do you fear so much? She froze.She turned back to face his inscrutable, icy gaze and calmly said, "I just don't want to be in the same house with you." Max chuckle

The sound of hurried footsteps reverberated down the corridor, barely dampening her voice. Then there was a piercing voice. "Max, let her go." Max turned to see Jeremy approaching them quickly, his dark eyes deadly cold and his brows furrowed. Felicia took advantage of the opportunity. She gave Max a strong slap across the face after yanking her hand back. The smack reverberated across the hallway.Stunned by what he saw, Jeremy came to a complete halt. Felicia pushed Max aside and headed for Jeremy, but Max grabbed her arm once again. Jeremy took hold of her other hand. Felicia felt as though her arm could explode out of its socket due to the abrupt strain. What precisely do you think you're doing, Mr. Milman? Max said in a chilly, quiet voice.Jeremy returned his gaze. It was difficult to breathe because of the intense tension between them. You have no authority over Felicia, Mr. Hawthorne. Give her up. Max's eyes were as deep and dark as the night. "Do you need me to remind you who

Chapter 277

For what seemed like an eternity, Jeremy waited outside. He assumed Felicia was preoccupied with putting Anne to sleep when she failed to show up, and phoning her seemed inappropriate. Ultimately, he simply rang the doorbell. When Amaris opened the door and saw the tall, attractive stranger standing there, she almost leaped. He was coming for Felicia, she surmised right away. This must be one of Felicia's covert affairs, she reasoned, since she was brave enough to approach them directly.This was her opportunity to show Max the true nature of Felicia. Jeremy was given permission to enter and instructed to locate Felicia on his own. Jeremy followed her inside despite sensing that she was unpleasant. Max gently made his way to the top of the steps and peered down at the two women. Marian and Amaris only saw the red mark on his face when they looked up at him. They had heard the faint sound of a slap earlier from above, but neither of them dared to speculate as to what had transpired. Wa

Anne immediately became alert. "I'm not concerned. I prepared everything last night. Felicia smiled warmly at her. "You're amazing, Anne." Anne smiled, her little teeth gleaming. "I want to be the very best kid ever so you will like me even more." That made Felicia's heart constrict. Anne was so kind and considerate. "I'll always like you the most, Anne, even if you don't do anything special." Anne smiled. "I like you the most too." "Anne, what is the topic of your speech today?"From across the table, Max inquired. Anne looked over at her father. Breakfast was delivered by the nanny. Anne was eating a dumpling when she had an epiphany. "Daddy, remember how I told you Aunt Andrea was mean to Evelynn?" she continued, turning to face her father. You must assist Evelynn. Felicia froze for a moment. She was surprised that Anne would actually inform Max about the events at the Ross family's home. Max looked at Felicia, who silently completed her breakfast without revealing anything while k

The final person to go was Felicia. Anne was just speaking in class today. She would later give a speech in front of the entire school. It was the day's first period. Full of confidence, Anne stood at the front of the room. Max and Felicia shared a seat in the very last row. Pulling out her phone, Felicia prepared to capture the occasion on camera. Anne began her speech, which would last about twenty minutes.Every word was clear and exact, and it was perfect. For a five-year-old, she talked with an assurance and resolve that seemed nearly unattainable. The other kids sat up straight and paid close attention. Anne had clearly gained their regard. Anne was truly exceptional in every aspect. Felicia couldn't help but believe that Anne would have a promising future. She could even eventually take over Max's company.The entire class erupted in cheers when Anne was done. Felicia put down her phone and joined the others in applauding. Max's eyes were fixed on his daughter, a look of pride

All she wanted was to be with Anne and offer her everything she could. However, she was aware that she had to apologize to Anne. She had to file for divorce from Max. Nevertheless, Felicia would make every effort to compensate Anne and be there for her at all times. Jeremy gave a nod. "That makes perfect sense. Anne is a unique child. However, there's something you should be aware of.Felicia raised her gaze to his. "What's up?" Jeremy continued to stare at her. "Don't get too close to Max, even if it's for Anne." She understood exactly what he was saying. "I get it." Even though Felicia and Max hardly communicated these days, she was aware that it was something to bear in mind. You're going to see Yara after work, according to Heather. Felicia gave a nod. Okay.I'll stop by the office to pick you up later, but I have to leave for a little while." "All right," she answered. Jeremy returned to his workplace after lunch. He made a brief phone call. "Look into the details of Horizon Peak
