After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 389

“Grandma.” Ethan called out again, gently tightening his hold on Isabella’s hand as a reminder for her to greet Stephanie.

Stephanie’s face lit up with a warm, welcoming smile. “You’re back.”

“Isabella, come sit with me.” She patted the seat beside her, her voice full of real affection. “It’s been a while since I’ve seen you. Have you lost weight? And those dark circles… are you staying up too late?”

She motioned for Isabella to join her.

Isabella echoed Ethan’s greeting, “Grandma.” She nodded politely to the others before walking over to Stephanie’s side.

Jennifer and Sophia had been sitting next to Stephanie. As Isabella approached, Sophia scooted over with clear reluctance, shooting Isabella a cold glare as she moved.

Isabella acted like she didn’t even notice.

In her last life, she barely had any contact with Stephanie. The old woman rarely left the estate, and since Isabella was never really accepted by her in-laws, she hardly ever got the chance to visit. Stephanie was the true authority in the Adams family. Even Jennifer had to show her respect and keep her head down in front of her.

“Ethan, are you not feeding Isabella? Look at her, she’s so thin,” Stephanie said, half joking, half serious.

Ethan let out a helpless sigh. “Grandma, it’s not me. Isabella works too hard, that’s why she’s lost weight. She stays up late and ends up with those dark circles. I’ve told her a million times she doesn’t have to push herself so much. It’s not like our family needs her to make money.”
