After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 882

Nadine’s eyes went wide. If Isabella refused to settle, did that mean she’d actually get detained? Maybe even go to jail?

All the color drained from her face and her hands shook so badly she could barely speak. She grabbed on to Isabella in a panic. “Isabella, I’m sorry, I really am. Please, just forgive me this one time.”

“I’ll pay for everything. I’ll buy you a brand-new car. Please, I’m begging you, let’s just settle this, okay?”

“I’m still young, I can’t go to jail. I’ll buy you a new car, Isabella, please, can’t we just settle?”

Isabella pulled her arm free, her voice icy. “Nadine, you did this on purpose. You wrecked my brand new car. Do you know how much it cost? Over a million, at least.”

“Look at what you did to the windshield. You’ve caused over ten thousand in damages. That’s enough for a conviction.”

“Don’t think money fixes everything. Not every problem can be solved by throwing cash at it.”

She wanted Nadine to learn a lesson. Maybe then she’d think twice before acting like she owned the world.

Nadine usually stuck close to Natalie, who had two powerful men backing her up. In Cabinda’s high society, Natalie could do whatever she wanted, and Nadine just followed in her footsteps, acting just as entitled and never missing a chance to bully someone.

Isabella had always known, but since it never involved her, she’d stayed out of it. This time, though, Nadine had messed with the wrong person. Isabella had proof, the law on her side, and she wasn’t about to let Nadine off easy.

“No, Isabella, please, I made a mistake, I know I did. Forgive me this once, I swear I’ll never do it again,” Nadine pleaded, her voice trembling with fear.

She turned to Harold, desperate. “Harold, please, help me. We all move in the same circles. We see each other all the time. Can we not make this ugly?”

“Help me talk to Isabella. I’ll buy her a new car, whatever it takes, as long as she agrees to settle.”

Harold looked at her, his tone cold. “Nadine, you did something wrong. You need to deal with the consequences.”
