After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 1188
Isabella froze. As the horrifying reality of Samantha's words sank in, all the color drained from her face.
"Samantha? Didn't Barbara go shopping with her friend? How was she kidnapped?"
"Isabella? Where is Harold? I don't know what happened! I just got a call from the kidnappers. They demanded a hundred million dollars in ransom, or they'll traffic her to an overseas syndicate. They said a beautiful, wealthy girl like her would fetch a massive price in a place like that."
"They explicitly warned me not to call the police. If we do, they'll kill her. And they threatened to... to assault her first. I'm terrified to call the cops. Please, Isabella, tell Harold to get back here!"
"I tried calling Barbara's phone. It rang, but a strange man answered. He said he was one of the kidnappers."
"We managed to contact her friend. She just woke up in the hospital. She confirmed a group of massive, masked men in black grabbed Barbara right on the shopping street. They had just parked and stepped out of the car when they were ambushed."
"The friend was beaten unconscious, and Barbara was dragged away. She woke up in the ER."
Samantha broke down sobbing. "Isabella, is Harold with you? Tell him to come home right now. We have to get the money together. The Carters have never made any enemies."
"Why would anyone target us?"
And they had taken a young woman. The thought of what those ruthless criminals might do to her before a ransom was even paid was unbearable.
If a Carter daughter was kidnapped and assaulted, Barbara's life would be entirely destroyed.
"Samantha, please try to stay calm. Harold is turning the car around right now."
Isabella offered a quick word of comfort before urgently turning to Harold. "Harold, turn around. We need to go home. Barbara is in trouble."

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...
