Natalie had always been spoiled by the attention of two men, and she wanted both of them to love her forever.
Adelina knew all about it.
She’d tried talking sense into Natalie before, but as long as those two men kept indulging her, there was nothing she could do.
“Mom, why do you always defend that woman? I’m your real daughter!” Natalie complained, clearly irritated that her mother always seemed to take Isabella’s side.
Adelina let out a sigh. “I’m not defending Isabella. I’m telling you the truth. Unless Ethan actually wants to be controlled, no one is going to control him. Not you, not anyone.”
“You’re already married, and the Lane family is no small deal. They’ve got billions. Jordan adores you, treats you well. Just enjoy your life with him and stop obsessing over Isabella.”
“No way. I won’t let Isabella have a happy life. I want her to suffer.”
Natalie’s eyes were cold. “Mom, I’m starting my own media company. I’ll make short dramas too. Whenever Isabella’s company puts out a hit, I’ll make my own version and rub it in her face. That’ll drive her crazy.”
Protecting creative work was almost impossible these days. People got copied all the time, and the best outcome was usually just getting the copy taken down or changed. Some people were so shameless, even if they were caught copying, they’d just deny it and even send their fans to harass the original creator. So many readers didn’t care about plagiarism, only whether the story was good.
Of course, they never cared because it wasn’t their own work being stolen. If they ever switched from reader to writer and got copied themselves, they’d finally know how painful and frustrating it was to fight for their rights.
Adelina was at a loss for words.
Her daughter wasn’t the same anymore.
Ever since Ethan started treating Isabella better, Natalie changed. Jealousy could twist anyone, and Natalie was living proof.

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...
