After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 1099
They also shared a secret—one no one else knew. Harold was dying to uncover the whole truth, but since Isabella wasn't ready to share it, he refused to pry. A secret wasn't a secret if you forced it out of someone.
What mattered was that she was his girlfriend now. Both families fully approved, and even when Ethan fully recovered, he wouldn't be able to steal her away. Isabella might still harbor a shred of basic human concern for Ethan, but she would never go back to him. Harold was absolutely certain of that.
They had known each other since they were children and had shared a marriage. Isabella was a kind person; how could she not care when Ethan nearly died? Hell, even Harold himself had been concerned about the man.
Because of that, Harold no longer felt a burning jealousy toward Ethan. If anything, Ethan was the one drowning in jealousy now, because Harold was the man standing by Isabella's side.
Isabella offered a graceful smile. "Harold and I are both swamped with work right now, so we aren't rushing into marriage just yet. But it's definitely in our future."
"And you're going to live a long, healthy life. You will absolutely be there to see us get married."
The rest of the family quickly chimed in with their agreements, skillfully steering the conversation away from Salome's morbid comments. If Harold and Isabella tied the knot before the end of the year, Salome would undoubtedly be there. But if they waited a couple of years? Given her rapidly declining health, it was truly a toss-up.
Right on cue, Harold's uncles—Samantha's brothers—arrived with their wives.
Since Isabella had already secured the approval of the Carter elders, Samantha's family played their parts perfectly. Even if any of them still harbored private doubts about Isabella's worthiness, they buried them deep. Instead, they greeted her with overwhelming warmth and enthusiasm.

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...
