After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 537
“The day I woke up from my coma, you promised we’d get divorced as soon as I left the hospital.”
Isabella reached out, her fingers brushing gently over his face. There was a time she’d wanted nothing more than to kiss him, to really be his wife. That was a long time ago. Now, all those feelings were gone. She felt absolutely nothing.
“Ethan, I hope you keep your word. Your face doesn’t do anything for me anymore.”
If she was honest, money was a lot more appealing.
Ethan’s face drained of color.
Hearing Isabella say she didn’t love him, didn’t want him, hit him like a knife straight to the chest. The pain was sharp and overwhelming, spreading through every part of him.
That was when he realized he was really about to lose her. The wife he’d treated like a pawn was walking away. She didn’t love him, she didn’t care, and she wasn’t looking back.
“Isabella,” Ethan said, struggling to get the words out. “After we’re divorced, can I… try to win you back?”
Isabella pulled her hand away and sat down again, her smile sweet and calm. “Sure, if you want. That’s your business, not mine.”
He could chase her all he wanted.
She just wasn’t ever going to say yes.
“But I have the right to say no.”
Ethan went even paler. He could feel his hands and feet going cold.
She was telling him he could try, but she didn’t have to accept him. After the divorce, she wouldn’t look back. That was it. If they divorced, he lost her for good. If they didn’t, he lost her all the same. Her heart was already gone. She didn’t love him, so she wasn’t going to care anymore. No matter what he did, she wouldn’t see him.
He used to worry she’d never get over him, that she’d always love him, always want him to return her feelings.
Ethan, you really brought this on yourself. If you didn’t want the ending, you shouldn’t have started the story.
In the end, he had lost the girl who once loved him with everything she had.
His phone started to ring. He couldn’t bring himself to answer. He just let it ring.
But whoever was calling wouldn’t give up. The phone kept buzzing over and over.
Ethan, furious and at the end of his rope, wanted to throw the phone across the room. Who couldn’t take a hint? Couldn’t they tell he was falling apart?
He finally glanced at the screen and saw it was his grandmother calling. Without thinking, he picked up.
“Grandma…”
He barely got the word out before his voice cracked, and he just couldn’t say another word.

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...
