After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 732

“Natalie, you and Jordan always stick together.” Ethan’s voice was soft, almost gentle.

Natalie fell silent right away. She wanted to say something, to stand up for herself, but every time she opened her mouth, nothing came out. The truth was, she and Jordan really did think as one.

“The three of us have always been close since we were kids,” Ethan went on. “But whenever it came down to a choice, you always picked Jordan, didn’t you?”

“Why are you blaming Jordan now? I’m not stupid. I see what’s going on. When I work with The Lane Group, or your family, it’s not just because of you two. It’s because those deals make sense for The Adams Group. They bring in real profit.”

“At the end of the day, I’m a businessman. I run The Adams Group, but it’s not just mine. I can’t put my own feelings ahead of what’s best for the company.”

As Ethan spoke, Natalie’s face lost all its color.

She’d always believed he did it for her. She thought he partnered with The Lane Group to make her life easier in the Lane family. Turns out, she’d only been fooling herself.

It wasn’t for her. It was just good business.

Jordan had warned her, too. Months ago, when The Adams Group had a project Ethan really wanted, he partnered up with Melissa instead. Jordan tried the usual tricks, using her as an excuse, but Ethan didn’t budge. He didn’t give The Lane Group the deal.

He didn’t even mention The Gates Group. He just went with The Mason Group, who had more power anyway.

“Natalie, I don’t know what happened to you tonight, what made you come here like this. But it’s late. Go home. Jordan’s drunk and he needs you right now.”

“Don’t do something like this again. Just live your life with Jordan. He truly loves you. What you two have is more than just love. There’s friendship, and family, too. That’s all I have to say.”

He turned and walked back to the villa.

This time, he didn’t glance back.

Natalie didn’t try to stop him, either.

He was stubborn. She knew he’d never betray his friendship with Jordan, no matter what.
