After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 826
“Grandma, I really trust Frank,” Ethan said. “He knows what he’s doing. Just look at his track record. Almost every movie he’s backed has made money. Even the worst ones just break even. He hardly ever loses.”
Stephanie frowned. “That’s fine for us. Our family can afford to take a hit. But Isabella doesn’t have that kind of money. She put in eighty million. What if…”
“Frank told me Isabella agreed to invest the second she finished reading the script. Grandma, business is always a risk. You have to take a chance sometimes.”
“It’s the same with movies,” Ethan continued. “There are films nobody expects to do well, but when they come out, the audience loves them. And sometimes the ones everyone predicts will be a hit end up flopping. You just never know.”
“We’ll have to wait until the movie is done and released. Only then will we see if it’s a success. The audience gets the final say.”
Stephanie let out a sigh. “Isabella’s already invested, so it’s out of my hands. All we can do is wait for the premiere. If she loses money, you’re paying her back every last cent. That’ll be on you. But if the film does well and she makes money, that’s her own good luck. Whatever she earns is hers.”
Ethan grinned. “Grandma, aren’t you being a little unfair? If she loses, I have to cover her losses. If she wins, I don’t get any credit at all?”
Stephanie shot him a look. “Why should you get credit? You’re the one who let Isabella slip away. I told you to cherish her. She’s a lucky girl. But you didn’t listen. Maybe you two just aren’t meant to be.”
Stephanie kept her thoughts to herself. Isabella probably wouldn’t even take the cash, let alone bother to count it.
When Isabella got back to her room, she turned to Harold. “We should get to work.”
“Yeah, let’s go.”
They headed out together. Harold offered her a ride to the office. Isabella thought for a second, then accepted, but she still told her driver to follow along. Their commutes only overlapped part of the way.

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...
