She didn’t want them to leave, but they’d already made up their minds. What was she supposed to do now? Was she really supposed to silence every single person who knew the truth?
After agonizing over it, Natalie could only come clean to her husband.
Jordan’s voice was low. “You had a hundred ways to make her pay. Why’d you have to get your own hands dirty? You… you just lost your head!”
“She’s gone, isn’t she? She walked out with nothing—not a penny to her name and nowhere to go. If we wanted, we could have ruined her in Cabinda, made it so she couldn’t even beg on the streets. Wouldn’t that be enough? Wouldn’t that feel good?”
“Natalie, Ethan and Isabella are divorced. That’s because of us. They’re not a couple anymore. We don’t have to worry about Ethan defending her. From now on, he’s only going to be loyal to you. We already won. There was no reason to go this far. To actually take her life… So what do we do now?”
Jordan never imagined his wife had been hiding so much from him.
No wonder Natalie had been so secretive for a while, sneaking around, meeting people in secret. He just hadn’t put it all together. She’d been setting Isabella up this whole time.
Natalie looked at him, her voice cold and matter-of-fact. “Jordan, you’re being too naïve. Ethan already cared about Isabella. If we hadn’t been in the way, they wouldn’t have been fighting so much. They might have actually been happy. Even though they’re divorced now, Ethan will start to regret it. And once he does, he’ll want her back.”
“I wasn’t about to let that happen. Isabella had to be out of the picture for good. Only if she’s gone completely will Ethan stay unattached. His love, his attention, it’ll all be mine. And with him on our side, imagine what we could get out of it. I did this for us, for our future.”

The readers' comments on the novel: After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan)
Author, please get your characters names right. You always messing them up!...
I wish Harold will win Isabella's heart. I was so sad when Isabela was taken for granted coldly and cruelly by her supposed to be husband, and trapped,mocked and humiliated non stop by Natalie. This was so cruel, both don't deserve Isabela' forgiveness I wish for a happy ending between Isabela and Harold, he has the right to be happy after the long wait....
Frankly, the story initially was going quite good and the pacing was just right. unfortunately after Ethan got the dream of his past life, the story has been going in circles. Ethan's spouting the same nonsense every time he sees Isabella, they both have same conversations over and over. The authors monologue too has been the same for almost 400 chapters. Irrespective of which character the writing the just a repetition of what someone had gone through in the past and what made a certain character feel the emotions. York got introduced in 800 chapters yet nothing significant happened till date. Isabella is soft with Harold and kind of disgusted with Ethan, yet it is not entirely clear with whom she might end up. If she stays single i am fine with it but the story is clearly about Isabella and Ethan so almost 1000 chapters without seeing any progress in their relationship is frustrating. Except for being blindly in love and few aggressive instances with Isabella, Ethan actually isnt a bad person so i am fine if he can win her back. Even though Harold is coming off as a good second lead, i am somehow unable to warm upto him. Even the bad people in the story are not really facing any real consequences. I hate Jackson for his hypocrisy. I hate Jordan and Natalie for their self-righteouness and selfishness. I also hate Deborah, except when she is handing it out to Natalie. I am almost on the verge of dropping this story....
Why are they acting like kids 🤣😭...
Ethan is actually not that bad if we take out his blind love for Natalie...
