After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 329
Jordan nodded again.
“Ethan, I just need some time alone.”
“Alright. Take your time, but try to get some rest. Tomorrow’s Monday, so go to work. Don’t skip out. The Lane Group isn’t yours yet, and if you keep going like this, your dad might just replace you.”
It used to be that Jackson only had Jordan. No matter what he did, Jackson would always forgive him. The plan was always for Jordan to take over The Lane Family one day. But now, with an illegitimate son in the mix, Jackson had started putting all his hopes on Kevin. He actually thought Kevin might turn out better than Jordan. Who the Lane Group would go to in the future was anyone’s guess.
Jordan nodded again. He thanked Ethan, then asked Natalie to walk him out.
Natalie followed Ethan outside.
“Thank you for today, Ethan. I’ve tried talking to Jordan so many times, but he just doesn’t listen to me.”
“Don’t worry about it. That’s what friends do. The three of us grew up together. I can’t just watch Jordan spiral like this.”
When they stepped outside, Ethan paused and looked at Natalie, his eyes soft with worry.
“Natalie, you have to take care of yourself. You’ve lost weight. Jordan’s just struggling right now, but he’ll work through it. You need to focus on your health.”
It hadn’t been long since her miscarriage.
Natalie didn’t even hesitate. “Him? He falls apart over the smallest thing and gets drunk. If the sky really fell, he’d be the first to run. You’re not like that. If it were you, I’d never have to worry.”
Ethan pressed his lips together, looking like he had something to say, but in the end, he just stayed quiet.
Noticing his silence, Natalie’s eyes got shiny, and she put on a sad, wounded look. “Ethan, you don’t care about me like you used to, do you? Is your heart all with Isabella now? We’ve known each other almost thirty years. Does that not mean anything compared to your two months with Isabella?”
“Natalie, why would you say that?” Ethan sounded tired. “We’re friends. Of course I care about you. Every time you’ve had trouble, I’ve been there for you. We’ve got almost thirty years together. There’s no way Isabella could replace you. You and she are completely different to me.”
Natalie was his friend. Isabella was his wife. There was just no comparison anymore.

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...
