After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 1003
“That’s why I told you the truth. We need to figure this out together. But right now, the biggest issue is the maids who want to leave. What do we do about them?”
Jordan looked at her and said, “Natalie, you’ve already crossed the line. No more bodies. Let’s keep the maids. Don’t let them quit. Offer them a pay raise. If they have kids, promise them good jobs at The Lane Group when their children graduate.”
“We need to use a mix of pressure and kindness. Promise them a future for their kids so they won’t dare betray you. They’ll keep their mouths shut.”
“And since they’re still here, we can keep an eye on them,” Jordan added calmly. “Honestly, the Adams family is trying to find out what happened, but you’ve already handled anyone who knew too much. They can’t pin anything on you as long as you act normal. If you try to cover things up by getting rid of more people, that’ll just create more suspicion. You’d make the police and the Adams family look at you for sure.”
Natalie sank into a chair, her nerves starting to settle.
“Pour me a drink too,” she said.
Jordan poured her a glass, then got up to grab some cleaning supplies and quietly tidied up the floor. Once the mess was gone, he poured himself another drink and sat down across from her at the bar.
“That big transfer you asked me for last time… Was that to pay the kidnappers?” he asked.
Natalie nodded.
“You couldn’t have talked to me first?”
Jordan was still reeling from everything. When Isabella’s kidnapping happened, he remembered the suspicion that crept into his mind. No one resented Isabella more than his own wife. But Natalie just went on with her days like nothing happened, so he had let it go. Now the truth was out. It was her all along. She was the one who hurt Isabella, and somehow, her hands were on Cynthia’s death too.

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...
