After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 1045
Before almost losing his life, Ethan just couldn’t let go. His mind kept circling around Isabella, always hoping for another chance, doing everything he could to win her back, wishing someday they could get married again.
But after the accident, coming so close to death, everything shifted. He’d had that weird dream again, the one where he and Isabella were separated—really separated, by life and death. It was like losing her all over again, but this time it woke him up to what truly mattered. Isabella’s happiness was more important than anything, even if he wasn’t the one making her happy.
In that dream, he found himself at Isabella’s grave, drowning in regret, thinking if there was another life after this one, he’d do it right. He’d love her and only her. No more mistakes.
When he woke up, the truth hit him hard. He realized he’d made all those same mistakes in life. The universe had given him a second chance to love Isabella, to truly cherish her, and he’d let it slip away.
“I believe Harold can make her happy,” he finally said, voice small but certain. “And Isabella really isn’t the same person anymore. She’s changed… it’s like she’s a whole new person.”
Stephanie’s heart broke for him. She knew, just as he did, that things were over between him and Isabella for good.
Isabella didn’t look at Ethan with love, didn’t look at him with hate, either. Her gaze was calm, steady. There was nothing left between them.
“Try not to think about it so much,” Stephanie said softly. “Get some rest.”
Ethan just grunted in response. He’d been awake for so long and he could feel exhaustion dragging him under. With a lighter heart than before, he drifted off to sleep. Stephanie stayed by his side, watching him settle in, and after a while, she let out a long, tired sigh.

On the other side of things, Natalie finally got Lawrence’s answer.
Ethan didn’t want to see her.
He didn’t want to see her. After everything, after nearly dying, he still refused her.
That’s when Natalie realized she had truly lost him.

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...
