After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 155
In front of everyone, Natalie slipped right back into her usual act. She was all gentle smiles and soft words, quick to take the blame for anything that went wrong. Every time she did this, it just made whoever she was setting up look even worse, while she walked away with everyone praising her for being so generous and forgiving.
Jordan looked at Isabella, his eyes cold and sharp. “Isabella, what did Natalie ever do to you? Why are you treating her like this?” His voice was icy.
Isabella stood up, her tone calm and steady. “She didn’t do anything wrong. I’m the one who messed up. I should have left when she came over. This is on me.”
But whenever Natalie showed up, nothing good ever happened.
Jordan pressed on, clearly not buying it. “You still won’t admit it? Why would Natalie pour juice on herself? Isabella, you’re always lying. Every time something happens, you push the blame onto someone else and never own up to your mistakes. And to act out like this, in front of everyone… Ethan has spoiled you too much.”
He went on scolding her for a bit, then turned to Ethan. “Ethan, she’s your wife now. You need to keep her in check. Tell her to stop picking on my wife. You were sick, and instead of taking care of you, she left home and made us all worry. Natalie just wanted to talk to her tonight, to ask her to look after you. It couldn’t have been more than a few minutes before Isabella lost her patience. Look, Natalie’s dress is ruined.”
People in the crowd started whispering. Wait, what? The newlyweds were already fighting after just a month? Ethan had a cold, and Isabella didn’t even take care of him? Wasn’t he crazy about her before, always showing off how in love they were? Their wedding only a month ago was the event of the season. Now it looked like their marriage was already falling apart. Guess the honeymoon phase really doesn’t last.
Ethan kept apologizing. “Jordan, I’ll buy Natalie two new dresses to make up for this. Natalie, I’m so sorry. I should have kept a closer eye on Isabella.”
She glanced at Ethan, almost pleading. “Don’t be so hard on her. She didn’t do anything wrong. It was all my fault.”
Linda walked over and said loudly, “The fake vibes in here are getting so thick, it’s suffocating.”
Harold and a few others arrived at that moment. They hadn’t quite figured out what was going on yet, so they just stood there quietly, waiting to see how things played out.

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