After coming back to life, her attention finally shifted away from Ethan. That was when she realized Jesse’s feelings were all for Laura. If fate really wanted them together, she’d be the first to support Laura giving Jesse a chance. Jesse, as the next in line for The Mason Group, wasn’t exactly easy to handle either. If he could get along with Ethan and be his best friend, their personalities and abilities were probably pretty similar. If Jesse was truly serious about Laura and willing to fight for her, sooner or later the Mason family elders would have to give in.
A marriage between people from completely different worlds only works if both sides are willing to stick it out, face every challenge together, and find a way through anything life throws at them.
“I still turned Mr. Mason down,” Laura said quietly. “I don’t really know him, and I’m not looking to jump into anything right now.”
Isabella nodded, understanding. Her phone started buzzing just then.
She glanced at the screen. The caller ID said “Mrs. Adams.” It was Jennifer.
“Great, Jennifer’s calling,” Isabella muttered to Laura. “She probably heard Ethan’s sick and that we had a fight. I bet she’s about to chew me out. Mothers-in-law are impossible.”
Despite her grumbling, Isabella picked up.
Jennifer didn’t waste a second. “Isabella, what are you doing? Why did you take so long to answer?”
“You dare talk back to me?” Jennifer’s voice was icy. Isabella could practically picture her furious face, even if she couldn’t see it.
“Mrs. Adams, I have a voice, and I’m allowed to speak for myself,” Isabella replied, steady. “If you accuse me of something unfairly, of course I’m going to defend myself.”
Jennifer was quiet for a second, but then she snapped back. “It doesn’t matter if we accept you or not. You and Ethan had a wedding. Everyone in Cabinda knows you’re his wife. You’re expected to follow the Adams family’s rules. Stop putting yourself out in public. Do you think our family can’t afford to take care of you? Do you really need to go out and earn your own money when Ethan can support his wife?”

The readers' comments on the novel: After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan)
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...
