After I Stopped Loving Him (Isabella and Ethan) novel Chapter 986
Isabella thought the entrance of her company would be swamped with reporters. She had braced herself for chaos, but when she got there, the place was calm and quiet. Not a single camera or microphone in sight. She let out a breath she didn’t realize she’d been holding.
Then she spotted Harold’s car in the parking lot. He was leaning against it, and when he recognized her car, a smile lit up his face. He quickly popped back into his car and emerged with a bouquet of fresh flowers.
So that was it. He must have come early and handled the press, making sure she wouldn’t be ambushed on her way in.
“Isabella.”
Harold made his way over, flowers in hand.
To Isabella, he really did look like something out of a fairytale. He was her Prince Charming, no doubt about it.
He opened the car door for her. As soon as she got out, he handed her the bouquet, his eyes soft and warm.
“Thank you. They’re beautiful. I really like them,” Isabella said, taking the flowers from him.
After everything that had happened lately, it just felt right. The paparazzi already had photos of them out shopping together, basically a date. So why not just give Harold a chance? They could try it out, see if dating worked for them.
Maybe after a year or two, if it felt right and their feelings grew stronger, she could let herself trust in marriage again.
It was true that Ethan had also spoken up for her, but if she was honest, most of her struggles these days could be traced back to him. If she and Harold became official, maybe it would finally convince Ethan to let her go for good.
There was no way she could ever start anew with Ethan. That door was closed for good.
And if Ethan was serious about staying single forever just because she wouldn’t remarry him, that was his choice. It wasn’t on her. He’d spent years single for Natalie’s sake anyway.
Harold smiled as she admired the bouquet. “I’m glad you like them. I can bring you flowers every day if you want.”
Isabella just smiled. She didn’t say no.

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...
