After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 687
“Exactly, young people should get out and explore a little,” Cynthia said. “How are things with you, Isabella? Has the Lane family caused any trouble? Did Natalie and Sophia get out already?”
Isabella hadn’t kept the whole drugging incident a secret from her mom.
She smiled. “Mom, just relax and have fun. I’m doing great. Ethan and I officially got our divorce certificate today, so I’m not Mrs. Adams anymore. He and I are completely done.”
“Things have been quiet on my end. The Lanes have so much drama going on, I doubt they have the energy to mess with me. Jordan did come by and yell at me when Natalie was detained, but I just ignored him.”
Isabella knew exactly what was going on with the Lane family. Harold made sure someone kept an eye on them, so she always heard about any little thing that happened.
“Those two were released a while ago. It was just a fifteen-day detention, so they were out in no time.”
Cynthia understood that Isabella had hoped Natalie would get a real sentence. But with the Lane family, the Gates family, and Ethan all protecting her, and since what Natalie did didn’t cause any serious consequences, plus the victim forgave them, Natalie and Sophia only got a slap on the wrist.
She tried to comfort her daughter. “Isabella, you need to let this go. There’s no point dwelling on it. People like her have too much power for us to do anything.”
“Mom, I’m not stuck on it. I knew how this would end. Ethan always takes her side. It’s not even the first time.”
Every time Natalie was involved, Ethan would bend over backwards for her, no matter how unreasonable it was. Even when Isabella was clearly right, Ethan would still expect her to apologize to Natalie.
Thank goodness all of that was finally over.
“From now on, as long as she stays out of my way, I’ll just pretend she doesn’t exist.”
“Just wait and see,” Cynthia said with a cold laugh. “If Deborah doesn’t turn that family upside down, I’ll eat my hat. It’s karma. Cheating men always get what’s coming to them.”
“Now that you and Ethan are officially divorced, don’t waste another thought on him. Live your life for yourself. And don’t let him make you give up on love or marriage. If you meet someone who truly treats you well, you should give it a shot.”
“Your dad’s side of the family can’t be counted on. If they don’t end up trying to mooch off you, you’ll be lucky. And I’m not much help, I’m getting older every year. I can’t be there for you forever. You still need to find someone you really love to spend your life with.”
Isabella shrugged. “Mom, let’s just talk about the future when it gets here. For now, I’m finally single again and I want to enjoy it.”
She leaned over to Laura and whispered, “Laura, let’s go check out a male host club tonight.”
She made sure her phone was held far away so her mom wouldn’t overhear.

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...
