If anyone could call their bullying a good deed, it’d have to be Berenice.
Natalie rolled her eyes at the old couple’s shamelessness. Still, if they were upset with Isabella and determined to squeeze money out of her, they could be useful. Allies, for now.
She reached over to the passenger seat and grabbed her purse. After a quick rummage, she pulled out a thick wad of cash. At a glance, it was easily several tens of thousands.
“Here, take this for now. Use it for the medical bills,” Natalie said, handing over the money. “As for Isabella, I’ll help you figure out a way to get her to pay up. You’re right, she’s your granddaughter. She’s got money—how could she just ignore you when you’re sick?”
“She’s really too cold-hearted,” Natalie went on. “Don’t worry, now that I know about this, I won’t just let it go. If she still won’t give you anything, just go straight to the Adams family and talk to the lady of the house.”
“That’s Isabella’s mother-in-law. Tell her everything. If Jennifer takes pity on you, she might give you some money. The Adams family is loaded. Even if they just want to get rid of you, they’ll probably hand over tens of thousands, maybe even more.”
The old couple’s eyes practically sparkled.
Peter took the cash, mumbling his thanks, but he hesitated. “But Isabella and Mr. Adams are divorced now, aren’t they? If they’re already separated, what good would talking to the Adams family do?”
“They want to get back together,” Natalie replied. “And if they do, the Adams family elders have to approve. You tell me, do you think it’s worth a try or not?”
Peter and his wife exchanged a look. Peter said, “We heard it was Mr. Adams who wanted to get back together. Isabella doesn’t seem interested.”
They’d clearly been asking around.

The readers' comments on the novel: After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan)
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...
