After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 875

“Why should I apologize? What did I do wrong? Harold, are you telling me there are no other women in Cabinda? You’d really pass up someone young, beautiful, and from a good family like me for a divorcée like her?”

“What, does someone like her have more sex appeal? Is she wilder in bed or something, is that what you—”

The sharp sound of a slap cut Nadine off.

Isabella was already on her feet, shaking her hand from the sting. “Wow, that actually hurt my hand.”

Nadine stared at her in shock. “Isabella, you hit me!”

“I absolutely did.”

Isabella’s eyes were cold as she looked at Nadine. “Nadine, I know you like Harold and see me as your competition. If you want to play fair, I’m fine with that. But you don’t get to insult me.”

“Yeah, I’m divorced, but there’s nothing going on between me and Harold. If I hear you making up stories or talking trash again, I’ll slap you every single time.”

“Harold likes me because he chooses to, and honestly, that just means I’m pretty outstanding. So outstanding, in fact, that even someone like you can’t compare.”

Isabella was never one to back down.

“Oh, seriously? You just love bragging about yourself. What’s so special about you anyway? You think your business is doing well because you’re so talented?”

Nadine opened her mouth a few times, but no words came out. Her cheek still burned from the slap.

She finally found her voice and jabbed a finger at Isabella, but Isabella smacked her hand away.

“Really, Nadine? You act like you’re so high-class, but you don’t even have basic manners. Didn’t your mother ever teach you not to point at people? It’s rude.”

“Harold!” Nadine yelled, spinning toward him. “Look at her! This is what she’s really like! She’s totally shameless. You still want her?”

“Harold, you’re the heir to the Carter Group. How can you even think about being with someone like her? If you marry her, the Carter Group’s stock could tank. You could lose everything.”
