After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 125
“You can’t spoil a woman too much. Once you start, she’ll expect the world.”
Ethan’s face tightened. “Mom, the allowance I give Isabella doesn’t come from you. It’s my money.”
“It’s my money, and if I want to spend it on my wife, that’s only right. She deserves it.”
“By our family’s rules, Isabella should get eight hundred thousand a month from the family trust. But you’ve never let that happen. I haven’t argued or forced you to pay her. I just give her three hundred thousand from my own account. That’s half a million less than what she should be getting.”
“And you still have a problem with it? You want me to give my wife just a few thousand each month? If people found out, they’d laugh and think I can’t even support my own wife. Worse, they’d say our family’s gone broke if Mrs. Adams only gets a couple thousand for spending money.”
He looked at his sister. “Sophia, your basic allowance is a million a month. On top of that, Mom and Dad each give you another million. All of us brothers chip in hundreds of thousands more. You get millions every month and spend it however you want, but you’re still jealous of Isabella’s three hundred thousand?”
Ethan’s tone was serious. “If you really want me to cut Isabella’s allowance, then I’ll adjust everyone’s. Sophia, you live here for free, you have everything you need, you never want for anything. So from now on, your allowance drops from a million to twenty thousand a month.”
Sophia’s eyes widened. “Ethan, what am I supposed to do with twenty thousand a month? That’s not even enough for a handbag!”
The look on Ethan’s face stopped her. Jennifer let the matter drop, but inside she was even more annoyed with Isabella. She just couldn’t understand what Isabella had done to make Ethan so loyal. He supported her in everything, no matter what, and Jennifer thought it was all just too much.
Trying to lighten the mood, Jennifer changed the subject. “Ethan, you’re going to a business reception tonight, right?”
Ethan nodded, glad for the shift.
“Sophia wants to go. Why don’t you take her with you?” Jennifer suggested.

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...
