She was the woman he held closest to his heart. If he could, he would have merged his very soul with Isabella's, never to be separated again.
Barbara laughed. "Is it really that serious? You guys literally see each other every single day."
Harold shot her a look. "Wait until you fall in love. Then you'll understand what this feels like."
"I haven't met anyone I like yet. Linda keeps trying to set me up with her brothers. She says I can take my pick of whichever one I want," Barbara said with a helpless sigh. "Honestly, after getting to know Linda, I realized she's way easier to get along with than most of the heiresses in our circle. She hates playing games. She's just straightforward."
"I respect the way she handles things," Harold agreed. "If she doesn't like someone, she says it. She doesn't wear a mask."
In their world, dealing with different people meant constantly running into those they despised. But for the sake of business, they usually had to hide their disdain. Barbara often felt like she was constantly wearing a mask, only daring to take it off when she was safe at home with her family.
"Linda is great, but she's obsessed with pitching her brothers to me. The adult men in the White family are all exceptional—just as impressive as the Adams men. If they wanted to get married, they could do it in a heartbeat. Linda doesn't need to stress over it."
"Douglas is the oldest and he's still single," Harold pointed out. "The younger ones aren't going to rush."

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...
