“Isabella almost never changes clothes just to go out,” Cynthia said, her eyes twinkling as she looked at Harold. “But as soon as you said you’d pick her up for dinner, she ran right upstairs to get changed.”
Harold caught the hint in her words and smiled, a warmth lighting up his handsome face. “Isabella looks amazing in anything.”
To him, it didn’t matter if Isabella was dressed up or just in her most casual clothes. Even without makeup, she was the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen. Love really does make you see someone differently.
Cynthia laughed softly. “Of course. Our Isabella is gorgeous, and she has a figure like a model. She could wear anything and look great. Still, she wants to look her best for you.”
Women always want to look good for someone they care about. To Cynthia, it was obvious her daughter was crushing on Harold. Otherwise, there’s no way she’d have gone upstairs just to change.
A little while later, the sound of footsteps echoed down the stairs.
Harold turned, looking up to see Isabella coming down in a beige maxi dress. The dress was simple, but it fit her so perfectly that it showed off every graceful curve, making her look even more elegant and confident.
Harold stood up right away and walked over, waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs. As she got closer, he reached out his hand, and Isabella slipped hers into his without hesitation.
“Sorry for making you wait, Harold.”
She’d just come back from her hometown, and the moment Harold said he was coming to pick her up, she’d headed upstairs for a long, relaxing shower and put on a fresh outfit. The weather was still warm, so she chose a dress—something she hadn’t worn in ages except for fancy events.
“No need to apologize. I just got here myself,” Harold replied, his smile easy and bright, his eyes never leaving her. Even in a simple dress, he thought she looked like an absolute angel.
Isabella slid her hand out of his and they walked back to the living room.

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...
