After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 182
Ethan couldn’t help himself. He fired off a voice message, his tone dripping with disbelief. “Isabella, could you be any stingier? When I send you money, it’s always tens of thousands. And you? You send me two hundred bucks. What am I, a beggar?”
Isabella shot back right away. “I only give beggars a couple of dollars. Two hundred could send a hundred beggars on their way. Isn’t that plenty? Besides, how could I possibly compete with you? You’re worth billions, and I’m just scraping by. When you’re in a good mood, you give me spending money. When you’re not, you start talking about cutting me off. Living with my hand out like this feels suffocating. That’s why I’m determined to make my own money.”
Once she had her own, she could spend it however she wanted. Nothing beat having money of your own.
Ethan stared at her message in silence. His family had been pushing him to cut back on her allowance, but he hadn’t gone through with it. Was her life really that tough? She didn’t live with Jennifer anymore, so nobody was giving her a hard time. She had a huge villa, drove luxury cars, lived the kind of life most people only dreamed about.
To keep his blood pressure in check, Ethan decided not to reply. Isabella’s words were sharp enough to give him a headache.
Still, he accepted the two hundred dollars. No point in turning it down. At least she’d offered to buy him lunch. Maybe she did care in her own way.
He called his driver and asked him to bring over some takeout. Until the test results came back, he wouldn’t be leaving the hospital. The waiting was torture.
Was this Isabella really the woman he knew? If she wasn’t, how was he supposed to deal with her?
Ethan rubbed his temples, feeling the stress settle behind his eyes. He put away his phone, deciding not to message her again.
The two women with Linda were beautiful too. One of them seemed familiar, but he couldn’t quite figure out where he’d seen her before.
Dylan smoothly stepped in front of them, blocking their way.
They all stopped.
“Mr. Main?” Linda arched an eyebrow, a friendly smile spreading across her face. “Long time no see. Still as charming as ever.”

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...
