After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 1180
"As long as you trust her, that's what matters," Amelia said with an encouraging smile. "We're all rooting for you, Harold. You've got this."
"Thanks, Amelia. I won't let you down."
Harold had driven directly up to the main entrance, deliberately beating Ethan, who was forced to make the trek on his own two feet. It was a petty victory, but Harold savored it. He was the one who arrived at the door first—the rightful boyfriend.
He had come prepared, bringing impeccably wrapped gifts not just for Isabella, but for Cynthia, Amelia, and Isabella's uncle as well. It was a habit of his; he never showed up empty-handed and always ensured the family felt respected.
"Good morning, Cynthia," Harold greeted her as he walked into the living room, handing her a sleek gift bag.
He passed another to Amelia. Isabella's uncle wasn't in the house. The older man was likely out in the expansive backyard, already hard at work in the vegetable garden.
Amelia and her husband had lived a quiet, rural life before moving into the sprawling mansion. The transition to a life of luxury, complete with maids and chefs, had left them incredibly restless. Eventually, they had dismissed the domestic staff, preferring to manage the household themselves. They tore up a section of the manicured lawn in the back, transforming it into a thriving vegetable patch. They grew so much produce they regularly shared baskets of it with Susan next door and sent Harold home with fresh vegetables.
For the older couple, waking up at dawn to weed, water, and harvest kept them grounded. If they weren't so fiercely protective of Cynthia and Isabella, they would have moved back to the countryside long ago.
"Morning, Harold," Cynthia smiled warmly, accepting the bag. "You really don't need to keep spoiling us like this."
"It's my pleasure," Harold replied smoothly. "I'm going to head into the kitchen and see if Isabella needs a hand."

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...
