After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 627

This time, she realized she’d been totally played by Natalie. Natalie hadn’t even bothered to tell her what the pills would actually do. She’d just believed it would make Isabella look ridiculous, nothing more. She never expected it was that kind of drug, or that Ethan would get hurt because of it.

“Mom, how’s Ethan doing now? He didn’t really sleep with Isabella, did he? What if she gets pregnant? I really don’t want Isabella to be my nephew’s mom.”

Jennifer shot her a sharp look. “Isabella took Ethan to the hospital. The only thing she cares about now is getting that divorce as soon as possible. She’s really done with him.”

Jennifer let out a heavy sigh, regret settling in her chest. If only she’d respected Ethan’s choice and treated Isabella better, maybe things wouldn’t have come to this. Maybe they wouldn’t be heading for divorce. And now, just as they’re about to split, Ethan suddenly can’t let Isabella go. What a mess.

“It’s good she’s over him,” Sophia said, sounding almost relieved. “Once they’re divorced, she won’t be able to cling to Ethan anymore. He can find someone so much better than her, like a hundred times better.”

Jennifer poked Sophia on the forehead. “With the way you act and think, if you really married Dylan, you’d be the one getting taken advantage of.”

Honestly, Dylan Main had no interest in marrying into the Adams family anyway. Sure, when he looked at Sophia, there was that flash of interest, but it was just a guy noticing a pretty girl. It definitely wasn’t love.

Dylan had never really loved anyone. The women around him changed all the time. The only difference was, after every breakup, he’d give them a generous payout, so none of them ever bad-mouthed him. Everyone got what they wanted. Those women were after money and the status of being Dylan’s girlfriend. Even after breaking up, the publicity brought them followers and opportunities. If they played their cards right, they could make plenty of cash.

Sophia pouted, her lips sticking out. “Dylan would look after me. He’s so capable. He’d never let anyone hurt me. I just like him, Mom. Please let me date him.”

Jennifer rolled her eyes. “Keep dreaming. I’ll never agree. He’s just not right for you.” Then she straightened up. “Sit up. We’re going to the hospital.”

Natalie made a sound of acknowledgment. “Okay, got it. I’m heading there now.”

She hung up, rushed upstairs to grab her bag, then came down for her car keys and hurried toward the door. But just as she reached the entrance, she ran right into Jordan, who’d just gotten back from a business trip.

“Natalie, where are you off to in such a hurry?”

Jordan dragged his suitcase behind him, looking a little dusty from travel, but his mood was upbeat. There wasn’t a trace of tiredness on his face.
