After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 894

“Natalie, you didn’t come all the way here just to fight over whether Ethan likes you or me, did you?”

Isabella honestly couldn’t care less. Ethan was ancient history. Whoever wanted him could have him. If neither of them could win him over, that was on them, not her.

“I want you to drop the charges against Nadine. Take the settlement, let this whole mess go. She’ll apologize, cover your repair costs, and that’s the end of it.”

Natalie pulled a thick stack of cash from her purse and set it on the table between them. “Lawer asked me to give this to you. It’s for the repairs. A new windshield for your car can’t cost more than a few thousand.”

“Ten thousand is more than enough. Lawer even said he could get you a new car, but I think just replacing the windshield should be fine.”

“Isabella, you’re running a company now. Sure, you don’t work with the Franklin Group, but we all move in the same circles. You see everyone all the time, so don’t push your luck. Know when to let things go.”

“If you really go after Nadine, and she gets sentenced, do you think the Franklin family will just sit back and watch? Your business is barely getting started. Do you really think you can handle their retaliation?”

“Don’t go overboard. You stole Harold from her, so of course Nadine hates you. With a face like yours, it’s no wonder you always attract trouble.”

Isabella’s voice went icy. “What if I say I’m not settling? What if I want Nadine to pay for what she did, legally?”

Natalie glared. “Isabella, don’t be stupid. Even if you press charges, the Franklin family will just get her the best lawyers. She won’t get a real sentence. She’ll be out in no time.”

“And when she’s out, you think she’ll just forget? You’re only making another enemy.”

“Even if Nadine ends up in jail, do you really think the Franklins will let you off the hook? It would take nothing for them to crush your tiny company.”
