After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 641
“If she starts steering things online again, I’ll get hit with another wave of hate. My life, my job, even my family… It could all get dragged down with me. It might have even pushed me over the edge. That’s what she really wants.”
Ethan started to say something in Natalie’s defense, but the words just hung there. He couldn’t bring himself to believe it was some innocent prank, not anymore.
His mom had said it before. Natalie just wanted to ruin Isabella, make Ethan stop loving her, so after the divorce, he’d never want to chase Isabella again.
He’d definitely spoiled Natalie too much before. He always gave her what she wanted, always let her get away with anything. She got used to being his favorite. Any time he was nice to someone else, Natalie couldn’t stand it. That’s when she’d start doing reckless things.
“Ethan, she wasn’t just after me. She went after Sophia too. Sophia is your only sister. She didn’t drug me herself—she talked Sophia into doing it.”
“If anything had actually happened to me, she would have thrown Sophia under the bus. Sophia doesn’t stand a chance against her. She’d have to take the fall.”
“Even if she was your wife—which she isn’t—you can’t just cover for her after she used Sophia like that. You should be standing up for your sister.”
Ethan looked pale. Before, he would have taken Natalie’s side without thinking. Now, he was hesitating, torn up inside.
After a long silence, he finally said, “Isabella, I’m not trying to protect Natalie, but this is about Sophia. She’s my sister. I just… I don’t want her to go to jail.”
“I just hope you don’t keep forgiving her at my expense.”
“We’re about to finalize the divorce. I won’t be your wife anymore. As long as you don’t come looking for me, I won’t bother you either. We can just live our separate lives.”
“I won’t be the third person between you and Natalie anymore.”
“Ethan, you know Natalie’s only hurting me because of you. She probably loves you, or at least wants you for herself. She’s greedy, sure, but honestly, it’s human nature. The real problem is you never set boundaries after she chose Jordan. You kept spoiling her, kept letting her rely on you. You taught her to expect your unconditional attention, and that’s why she turned out so possessive.”

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...
