After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 1201
Despite her frantic protests and grumbling, the officer's unyielding glare left her no choice. Trembling, she unbuckled her seatbelt and stepped onto the asphalt.
The second her feet hit the ground, chaos erupted.
Officers swarmed the vehicle, violently yanking open the passenger doors. The thugs instantly went on the offensive, throwing brutal punches to break through the ambush. The confined space made it a chaotic brawl, but the mercenaries were ruthless.
Three officers were knocked to the ground in a flurry of blows as the four men scrambled out of the car and sprinted wildly down the highway.
The rest of the squad immediately gave chase.
Natalie stood frozen, staring at the chaotic scene in absolute shock.
The realization hit her like a bucket of ice water—the cop hadn't asked her to step out because she was under arrest. He had done it to prevent the thugs from taking her hostage.
He had literally saved her life.
Snapping out of her daze, she immediately played the role of a traumatized civilian. She turned to the officer, her voice shaking. "Oh my god, thank you! Thank you so much! I had no idea they were criminals. I was so scared!"
The officer looked at her, his expression utterly unreadable. He didn't offer a word of comfort, simply instructing her to stand aside.
"Can I go now?" Natalie asked, taking a tentative step back. "I'm terrified. I don't want to be in the way. What if they double back and grab me?"
The thugs were currently running for their lives from a heavily armed police squad; the chances of them circling back were zero.
"Not a chance, Mrs. Lane," the officer said coldly. "You're coming with us to the Eastside Precinct."
Natalie's face drained of color. "What are you talking about? Are you accusing me of being with them?"

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...
