“Okay, just come over if you’re free. If not, I’ll swing by your office this afternoon.”
Frank paused for a second, then said, “Ethan, I’ve got a lunch meeting today, so it’s not the best time. Why don’t you come by my office later? I’ll be there waiting.”
“Alright.”
Ethan ended the call.
Not wasting a moment, Frank dialed Jeremy.
“Jeremy.”
Jeremy picked up right away. Frank asked, sounding unsure, “Is Ethan in a bad mood today?”
“When has he ever been in a good mood since the divorce?”
“He called you too?”
“Yeah, wanted to have lunch. I told him I’ve got a meeting, so to come by in the afternoon. I wanted to check with you. Any idea what he wants? I’ve got a weird feeling about this.”
Jeremy replied, “Ethan’s lost all interest in the business lately. He dumps everything on me, doesn’t matter if it’s big or small. All he cares about now is winning Isabella back.”
They both fell quiet for a moment. Frank let out a sigh. “If only he’d seen this coming.”
“If it’s not business, it’s got to be about Isabella. I really can’t help him with that. I just hope he doesn’t ask me for something impossible.”
“Yeah, it’s definitely about Isabella,” Jeremy agreed. “He doesn’t care about anything else these days.”
“Harold’s going after Isabella hard, and Ethan’s already lost his edge. Honestly, I can’t even imagine what’ll happen if Isabella actually marries Harold.”
“He’ll probably end up like he did with Natalie, just watching over her from a distance for the rest of his life.”
Jeremy shook his head. “It’s not the same. He never really had Natalie, but he did have Isabella. That’s a different kind of pain. To lose someone you loved, because of your own mistakes, and then have to watch her marry your friend…”
“That kind of heartbreak is brutal. Ethan’s love life is a complete mess. We should learn from all this. Never fake a marriage, and never mess around with someone’s feelings.”
Frank laughed. “Jeremy, are you seeing someone?”

The readers' comments on the novel: After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan)
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...
