After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 1086
Harold wrapped his arm around her shoulders, refusing to let her pull away, and leaned in to capture her lips.
When the kiss finally broke, his eyes were overflowing with deep affection. He gently brushed her cheek with his right hand and whispered intensely, "We're both going to win, Isabella."
He loved her!
Isabella nodded, then playfully pushed him back. She straightened up in her seat, pretending to act completely casual. "Take me home. I'm going to have to bother you for a ride again first thing in the morning."
"It's an absolute honor. I'd love nothing more than to drive you to and from work every single day."
"But you're so busy."
"No matter how busy I am, nothing is more important than you. To me, Isabella, you matter infinitely more than any business deal."
She smiled. "Thank you, Harold. Thank you for putting me above your work. Men are usually so obsessed with their careers; they always put business first."
His willingness to prioritize her over his empire deeply moved her.
She just wondered how many years he could keep it up. Though, of course, she hoped he would maintain it for a lifetime.
After all, he was the only man she had wanted to spend the rest of her life with since starting over.
"I'm the one who should be thanking you. Thank you for giving me the chance to love, protect, and cherish you."
Unable to resist, Harold leaned over and stole another quick kiss from her cheek before finally buckling his seatbelt and driving her home.
He actually owned property in this same neighborhood. Ever since he had fallen in love with her, he moved in just to be closer. Back when he couldn't confess his feelings, just bumping into her by chance and seeing her face was enough to satisfy him.
Now that they were together, it was even better. He hadn't stayed at the main Carter family estate in ages.
When he dropped Isabella off, Amelia predictably insisted he come inside for a late-night snack. He stayed and chatted for a while before finally heading out.
Isabella brought in the gifts Jordan had left at the gate. She had no intention of keeping them; she planned to send them right back to him tomorrow.

The readers' comments on the novel: After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan)
I will be devastated if Isabella and Ethan will get back together. Please, writer, Isabella deserves Harold....
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...
