After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 924

Natalie stayed silent.

Jordan gently took her hand, his voice soft but serious. “Natalie, I messed up. Just this once. I swear I’ll never hurt you again.”

“For the sake of everything we’ve shared over the years, can you forgive me? Just this once?”

He paused, searching her eyes. “But you have to promise me something too. Don’t go running to Ethan again. Honestly, I’ve always noticed how good you are to him. I get jealous, I really do, but I never said anything because I didn’t want us to fight. So I kept it in.”

“Natalie, you’re my wife. I want you to love me, only me. Please, let go of whatever you still feel for Ethan. He’s moved on now. He’s with Isabella.”

“So why are you still chasing after his attention? Unless you really want to leave me for him. But even if you did, Ethan would actually have to want to marry you, and he’s made it clear he doesn’t.”

Natalie finally spoke. “Jordan, this is between us. Why do you have to drag Ethan into it?”

The truth was, Ethan had already turned her down. He’d told her he just wanted to get back together with Isabella.

That special place she used to have in his heart felt further away than ever.

Sure, Natalie wanted to win Ethan back, and she was still trying to figure out how to finish the task York had given her. But deep down, she knew her real life was with Jordan. She didn’t want a divorce.

Staying with Jordan was her backup plan.

Of course, in a perfect world, things would go back to how they once were: married to Jordan, best friends with Ethan, Ethan doting on her and always there to protect her. If that wasn’t possible, then maybe she’d divorce Jordan and marry Ethan instead.

But if neither of those options worked out, she’d stick with the safest choice: stay married to Jordan and build a life with him.

She had her mistakes, and Jordan had cheated too. At this point, they were even.
