After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 985
Jackson called for the housekeeper.
She had already set up Natalie’s room and wanted to come downstairs, but when she saw Deborah and Natalie arguing at the stairwell, she froze. The last thing she wanted was to get caught between them, especially now that Natalie could explode at any moment, cutting their pay or withholding bonuses for the slightest reason.
In her mind, the housekeeper blamed Mr. Adams for Natalie’s foul mood. He hadn’t come by in ages, and people were saying that he barely seemed to care anymore. Natalie had always been spoiled by both Jordan and Mr. Adams, but now Jordan was always busy and Mr. Adams was nowhere to be seen. To make things worse, she couldn’t stand the fact that Mr. Adams was treating the former Mrs. Adams so well these days. No wonder her temper was getting so bad.
When Jackson’s voice echoed again, the housekeeper jumped and hurried down.
“Go get some ice, will you? Deborah’s face is swollen on both sides. I’ll help her with it.”
The housekeeper glanced at Natalie, who was sitting there with a stormy face, and hesitated. But Jackson’s sharp tone cut through the tension and the housekeeper rushed to the kitchen.
Natalie didn’t want to stand there and watch Jackson taking care of Deborah. She got up and headed for the door.
“Natalie.”
She paused in the hallway when Jackson called. He looked at her and said, “I know about the trouble you caused today. You really need to start being careful.”
“The Gates family and the Lane family are working closely together. If you go running back to your family and say something that stirs up problems, think about the consequences. If things fall apart, both families could lose a lot.”
Natalie got the message. If she went home to complain and it turned into a real feud, The Gates Group would be hit just as hard as The Lane Group. She knew the stakes.
She turned to look at Jackson. “Dad, what trouble did I cause?”
“Haven’t you checked what’s trending today?”
Trending? Everything online today was about Isabella. What did that have to do with 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...
