After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 363
Jennifer had made too many empty promises in her life for Isabella to believe her now.
“If I’d known what to do back then, I never would have agreed to let him marry you,” Jennifer said, almost on reflex. The only way out would have been cutting Ethan out of her life completely, and she wasn’t ready for that.
“You could help me catch him with someone else,” Isabella offered. “If I had proof he cheated, he’d have to agree to the divorce. He wouldn’t be able to argue.”
Jennifer just stared at her, lost for words.
“There are so many women who want Ethan. Just pick one you don’t mind, set things up, give her a chance. I know you could pull it off.”
“It doesn’t have to be anything serious. I just need to see him lying in bed with another woman. That’s all.”
“I’m sure some of my so-called rivals would love to make that happen. All they’re missing is the right opportunity.”
Jennifer stayed silent. She knew it was true. Plenty of women were obsessed with Ethan— even Sophia’s supposed best friends had stuck around for his sake.
After a long, awkward pause, Jennifer finally moved. She slid the two checks back into her purse, stood up, and slung her bag over her arm. “I’ve got the coffee,” she said. Then she left.
Isabella picked up her cup, took a sip, and couldn’t help mumbling to herself, feeling the sting of loss. “Two hundred million... I just watched two hundred million slip right by me.”
“I even touched it. And it still slipped through my fingers.”
Two hundred million. She’d never even seen that much money, not in her wildest dreams.
She let out a heavy sigh. Money she earned herself always felt more secure. Chasing easy money was just too risky.
After feeling sorry for herself for a few moments, Isabella remembered Cynthia was still talking things out with the mistress. She moved to a seat closer to them, close enough to catch their conversation.
She couldn’t stand beside Jackson in public, and Kevin couldn’t openly claim his place in the Lane family.
“You’d really go through with the divorce?”
“I’ve already moved out of the Lane house,” Cynthia said, firm and steady. “I’m not changing my mind. No matter what Jackson says, I’m leaving him.”
Deborah looked at Cynthia and saw how serious she was. A flicker of hope crossed her face. “I’ll try,” she said, her voice soft.
If Jackson did get divorced, she knew she’d be next. She already had his son. Jackson adored Kevin, always said the kid was just like him, even bragged Kevin would outshine Jordan in a decade or two.
Would he really let his favorite son grow up with that label, always left out?
She didn’t want to hide in the shadows forever.

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...
