After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 866
Ethan was still in shock when Natalie stepped right up to him. She couldn’t help herself. She threw her arms around him, holding onto his waist like she was afraid he might disappear.
“Ethan, please, don’t leave me. Don’t go after Isabella. Can’t we just be together?”
She looked up at him, her eyes red. “Isabella doesn’t love you anymore, but I still do. I know you still have feelings for me. We love each other. Why can’t we just be together?”
“If you agree to marry me, I’ll divorce Jordan. He betrayed me. I can’t forgive him. If you’ll marry me, I’ll leave him. Is that what you want?”
Ethan couldn’t even process her words. All he wanted to do was pull her arms away. He kept trying to push her off, but she just held on tighter.
Then her last words hit him, and his whole face changed.
“Natalie, have you lost your mind?” His voice was low and angry.
“I let the last thing go, but I told you, I only want to get back together with Isabella. I’m not thinking about anything else.”
“We can’t go back to how things were.”
He remembered how, when he had loved her the most, she chose Jordan. And now, after Jordan cheated on her, she wanted to come back to him? He didn’t want to marry her anymore.
He couldn’t help but feel like she was treating him as a backup plan. If Jordan hadn’t cheated, she wouldn’t be here saying any of this. She’d still be happily with Jordan.
“Ethan, are you sure you really love Isabella? Or are you just feeling guilty and that’s why you’re so hung up on her? Are you really over me? You loved me for so long. There’s no way you could just let go in half a year. You must still love me. The only reason you’re keeping your distance is because I’m still married to Jordan.”
“If I divorce Jordan, and I’m free again, can we start over? I was wrong, Ethan. I never should’ve chosen Jordan. I should’ve waited for you to tell me how you felt. I should’ve picked you.”
Natalie’s regret was real. She wished she’d just waited a little longer back then. Maybe Ethan would’ve confessed his feelings, and things would be different.
If he had, her parents would’ve definitely wanted her to choose Ethan.
Ethan had always told her that after Jordan confessed to her, he just couldn’t bring himself to fight for her. He didn’t want to steal his friend’s girl, so he kept his feelings to himself. Still, he’d always been there for her. Everyone could see how much he loved her.

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...
