After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 271

Natalie could see it so clearly. She knew Ethan was favoring Isabella, and that twisted something inside her. The only plan she could think of was to use her pregnancy, to turn Ethan and Isabella against each other. But Isabella refused to come back, and that ruined everything.

“I swear, the real problem is Isabella,” Natalie complained, pacing the living room. “She’s just not the same since she married Ethan. Remember that time we tried to mess with the DNA test? I was so careless, I grabbed the wrong hair sample.”

Jordan shook his head. “And you ended up with Cynthia’s hair instead. It was obvious what the results would be. Sometimes it feels like fate is just messing with us.”

Nothing seemed to go their way. Every scheme, every little plot, ended in failure.

Jordan let out a slow sigh. “The paternity test is done. There’s no point in talking about it anymore. Our only hope now is if the George family steps up.”

He paused, a sly look crossing his face. “But you know, this baby... If it won’t work against Isabella, we could always use it against her mom. Cynthia’s living right here with us. It’d be easy to pin something on her.”

Jordan’s mind was already spinning with possibilities. “My dad is obsessed with this pregnancy. He thinks this kid is our family’s future. If Cynthia was blamed for a miscarriage... Dad would lose it.”

“Even if he doesn’t divorce her, their marriage will never be the same. He’ll definitely cut her out of his will,” Jordan finished, a cold satisfaction in his voice.

Natalie sighed, her shoulders slumping. “I guess that’s all we can do now.”

They agreed on their new plan. They’d blame Cynthia if anything happened to the baby. Together, they headed downstairs, only to find that Cynthia was nowhere in sight. When they asked the butler, he said Cynthia had gone out to take something to Jackson at his office.
