After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 563

No matter how many sides Natalie had, no matter what she did, Ethan always chose to forgive her. He loved her enough to cover up her mistakes, even going out of his way to fix things for her.

After a long silence, Isabella finally spoke. “Yeah, he really does love her.”

But in both lives, Ethan’s true love had never been Isabella.

“Isabella, you’re still young, and you just keep getting better. One day, you’ll meet someone even better than Ethan, someone who will love only you.” Harold tried to comfort her. “Ethan was never right for you. Your marriage was a mistake from the very beginning. Getting divorced is the best thing for both of you.”

“I know. I’m not even sad about it. If this had happened three months ago, I would have been devastated. I’d have cried nonstop and felt like my entire world was ending.”

“But now, I’m over him. I was the one who pushed for the divorce. He kept saying he knew he was wrong, promising to change, begging me to give him another chance.”

“He admitted he never loved me when he married me, but he thought we could spend a lifetime together.”

“So he didn’t love me, but expected me to spend my whole life with him, as if I’d just exist quietly while he stayed faithful to Natalie forever.”

“He made it sound like he was doing me a huge favor, as if I should be grateful for this kind of marriage, like I couldn’t possibly survive without him.”

Ethan, his family, even Jordan and Natalie, all acted like Ethan staying married to her was some sort of gift, and she should be thankful.

“I don’t want to talk about him anymore. We’ve filed for divorce. After thirty days, I’ll have the official papers, and we’ll go our separate ways.”

“I’m not even thinking about getting married again. I just want to focus on my business and making money. That’s what’s really important.”

Harold could hear the determination in her voice. He knew she wasn’t going to think about love again anytime soon.

“I knew Harold liked her,” he muttered. “But Isabella has no clue. She thinks he’s just a nice guy.”

“None of us, the ones picked as family heirs, are actually good people. She doesn’t realize that. Harold’s going to trick her.”

“Barbara acts like Isabella’s best friend, but she’s just helping Harold get close to her. Isabella’s walking right into the trap they set.”

“No. Isabella is my wife. I won’t let Harold steal her from me.”

“Even if we’re divorced, I’m going to win her back.”

Natalie crossed her arms. “You’re already divorced. Why bother? She’s over you. This divorce cost you hundreds of millions. If you marry her again and get divorced again, you’ll lose even more.”
