After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 632

In her last life, Isabella had spent three years locked in a battle with Natalie. Three years of losing, three years of swallowing her anger. She honestly hated Natalie, even if she never said it out loud. Now, finally, she’d found proof. Even if it wasn’t enough to put Natalie behind bars, Isabella was determined to ruin her reputation, to rip away that fake, gentle mask Natalie always wore.

Harold spoke quietly. “Ethan, the real victim here, might forgive her. The consequences she faces may not be what you want.”

Isabella already knew Ethan would forgive Natalie. Honestly, Natalie might get away with nothing more than an apology and some money as compensation. Ethan’s patience with her was almost impossible to believe.

“This time, even if she escapes punishment, she won’t just stop. She’ll break the law again, I know it. One day I’ll have enough proof to send her to jail, and Ethan won’t be able to help her,” Isabella said, her tone icy. “Ethan can’t protect her from everything. We live in a society of laws. If she tries anything again, I won’t let her walk away.”

Nobody seemed surprised by the bitterness in Isabella’s voice. Jesse and the others probably understood the real Natalie even better than Isabella did.

After dinner, Isabella made several copies of the evidence. She took the originals to the police and handed them over. Then, turning down Harold and the others’ offer to come with her, she headed to the hospital alone, one copy of the evidence tucked under her arm.

Now that Ethan was awake, it was time for him to see who Natalie really was.

Even though Ethan always forgave Natalie, she’d crossed another line this time by involving Malvina. Once Jennifer found out, Isabella doubted she’d just let it slide. If Ethan tried to protect Natalie again, he’d only end up fighting with his mother and Sophia. The Adams family’s attitude toward Natalie would definitely change. They wouldn’t treat her so kindly anymore.

Isabella knew how much Jennifer loved Sophia. Natalie had dragged Sophia into this mess, and Jennifer would never go easy on her. At the very least, it would shake Ethan and Natalie’s relationship.

If Natalie wanted to make her life miserable, Isabella would give it right back. The only thing that would satisfy her now was seeing Natalie left completely alone, abandoned by everyone.

Back at the hospital, Jennifer and Sophia returned to Ethan’s room. Susan had already dropped off Ethan’s dinner, but there was nothing for Natalie.

“Natalie, let me walk you out,” Jennifer said, her voice calm but firm. “I have a few things I want to ask you.”

Natalie paused, her mind racing. Did Jennifer know the truth? Had Sophia told her?

She glanced at Sophia, but Sophia just focused on helping Ethan eat, refusing to meet her eyes.

“You can ask me anything, anytime,” Natalie said, staying put for now.

If Jennifer knew the truth, she’d definitely tear into her. But if she stayed, at least Ethan would be there to defend her.
