Isabella stared at him for a long moment before replying, "I stopped caring a long time ago."
A sharp pain pierced Ethan's chest.
Her indifference meant she no longer loved him. He had personally destroyed the woman who had loved him the most.
"We've talked enough. You must be exhausted. Get some rest," Isabella said, standing up. "I'm heading out. When you're ready to be discharged, if I have time, Harold and I will come pick you up."
Ethan spoke quickly. "I'm not tired! I'm really not. How can lying here talking be tiring? Isabella, stay and chat a bit longer. Being stuck in this bed all day is driving me crazy."
"Your family is here. You won't die of boredom."
"They don't talk about the same things you do. I want to talk to you."
"But we have nothing left to say."
Ethan was silenced.
Isabella adjusted her bag. "Rest well. I'm leaving."
Having confirmed her suspicions about York, she truly felt they had nothing more to discuss.
Knowing he couldn't stop her, Ethan watched helplessly as she turned to leave.
Just then, Stephanie and Harold walked in. Harold had come to say goodbye.
"Harold."
Ethan called out, his eyes locking onto his former friend. When Harold met his gaze, he said, "Treat Isabella well. She's an amazing woman, and I dragged her down. I didn't cherish her, and I regret it every single day. Don't make my mistakes. Love her and take care of her."

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...
