After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 788

Isabella gave a cool, disinterested reply. “That’s their problem. It has nothing to do with me.”

Ethan really was trying to move on from Natalie, but Isabella doubted Natalie would ever let go so easily. She knew Natalie too well. Natalie loved being the center of attention, loved having both men chasing after her. If either of them tried to walk away, she’d do anything to pull him back.

In her past life, Isabella never figured that out. She kept getting hurt, always at a disadvantage, and in the end, she died without even knowing why. She’d always suspected Natalie was behind it, but she never had any proof.

Ethan once had a dream about what happened after Isabella’s death in their last life. He didn’t see who the real killer was, only that Isabella’s mother was murdered afterward too.

Harold spoke up. “Yeah, whatever’s going on with them, let’s just stay out of it.”

A couple of minutes later, Ethan finally made his way over.

Honestly, the moment York started chatting with Isabella, Ethan wanted to come over right away. But Natalie stopped him, and even when he tried to come up with an excuse to leave, she wouldn’t let him go.

“Isabella.” Ethan called her name and sat down next to her, not even waiting for her to answer.

“What did York say to you just now?” he asked, trying to sound casual. Inside, though, he was a mess of jealousy.

He’d always known Isabella was beautiful. Back when she was his wife, nobody dared to approach her, even if they wanted to. Even Harold had kept his distance until after the divorce, when he finally started chasing her openly.

“Nothing worth mentioning,” Isabella answered, her tone still cool as she focused on her food.

Ethan hesitated for a moment, then tried to explain himself. “Isabella, there’s really nothing between me and Natalie now. I’m not the same person I used to be. I don’t feel the same way about her.”

All he wanted now was to win Isabella back, to marry her again.
