After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 876

Harold stood right next to Isabella, his voice steady and serious. “Nadine, this is between Isabella and me. It’s none of your business.”

“You came in here yelling at Isabella. She was just standing up for herself. I honestly don’t see how she did anything wrong. What, did you expect her to thank you for insulting her?”

The truth was, Harold really admired Isabella’s backbone. She never picked fights, but she wasn’t about to let anyone walk all over her, especially when she knew she was right.

That only made Nadine more upset. Isabella’s words didn’t bother her half as much as seeing Harold take Isabella’s side.

“Harold, what’s so special about her? Why do you like her so much? Tell me, what does she have that I don’t?”

At a nearby table, a young couple had been watching the whole thing unfold. The girl finally spoke up. “Honestly? She’s just a better person than you.”

“Yeah,” she added, looking at Nadine. “He’s right. You started it. You can’t expect her not to say something back.”

“And honestly, what’s wrong with being divorced? Why can’t a divorced woman find happiness again? She’s free now. She deserves a shot at love, same as anyone else.”

Nadine snapped, “She hit me! Didn’t you all see that?”

The girl shrugged. “Yeah, we saw it. And honestly, she was gentle. If it were me, I’d do worse. With a mouth like yours, you need someone to teach you how to talk to people.”

“Isabella, you don’t have to be polite to someone like this. If she mouths off again, just slap her. She calls herself some fancy heiress, but all I see is a spoiled brat who thinks she can do whatever she wants because her family has money.”

“Exactly,” another customer said, nodding.
