After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 915

“No one in the Carter family really objects, except for Salome. Her problem isn’t that Isabella’s divorced, it’s that she thinks Isabella’s background just doesn’t measure up for Harold.”

The Carter family wasn’t as rich as the Adams family, but they were still a big deal in the city, with nearly a hundred years of history. Harold was their heir. In Salome’s eyes, the only woman good enough for her grandson was someone from a family just as powerful.

Natalie said, “If Salome doesn’t like Isabella, you should talk her ear off about Isabella’s flaws. I bet the other Carter elders would start to see her differently.”

“But Salome’s old. She doesn’t have much time left, so her opinion can only matter for so long.”

“Honestly, Isabella hasn’t even said yes to Harold yet. By the time she actually thinks about marrying him, a few years could pass. Salome probably won’t even be around then.”

Unlike Stephanie, Salome was always sick and taking medicine, in and out of the hospital. If the Carter family didn’t have money to keep her going, she’d have been gone a long time ago.

Counting on Salome to keep Isabella out of the Carter family seemed hopeless. Plus, Salome adored Harold. If he begged her, she’d give in and accept Isabella, no question.

“Whether she accepts her or not, that’s not the point. Step one is ruining Isabella’s reputation in front of the Carter family. She’s just pretending to be all high and mighty, but deep down, she’s scared of what people will say if she remarries right after her divorce.”

Natalie didn’t want Isabella getting back together with Ethan, and she didn’t want her ending up with Harold, either.

Those two men were Isabella’s biggest safety nets. If Natalie could take them both away, Isabella would finally crash back down to earth.
