After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 304

Ethan said sorry for interrupting, but he had no plans to leave. He just made himself at home in the office, waiting for Isabella. With him hanging around, there was no way Isabella could get any work done, especially with Harold and Barbara there too.

Eventually, the whole group headed out for lunch at The Cabinda Hotel.

At the table, Ethan, who was usually the one being waited on, was suddenly the most attentive person there. He kept piling food onto Isabella’s plate. When the seafood arrived, he actually peeled shrimp for her, even picked out pieces of crab and put them right in front of her.

Isabella couldn’t remember anyone getting that kind of special treatment from Ethan, except maybe Natalie.

She tried to protest, saying she could manage on her own, but Ethan ignored her, fussing over her like it was the most natural thing in the world. He looked like he would have fed her with a spoon if he could.

After lunch, Laura got the hint and went home to work on her writing. Harold and Barbara left too, but Ethan stuck close to Isabella, following her right back to the studio.

Harold and Barbara ended up sharing a car. Barbara drove, and as soon as Harold got in, any trace of a smile disappeared from his face.

“Harold,” Barbara said, “it’s just us now. Let’s talk honestly.”

“Do you like Isabella?”

Harold didn’t answer right away. He looked like he was trying to figure out his own feelings. After a long pause, he finally said, “I never disliked her.”

“Come on, Harold. I want the truth.”

“I don’t know,” Harold admitted. “I just know I don’t dislike her. When I found out why Ethan really married her, I felt bad for her. She deserves more.”
