"I am sorry to disappoint you, Mrs. Wilson," I said, " James will be asking me to marry him soon and I plan on saying yes to his proposal and neither you nor anyone else can sabotage our happiness,"
"You must think you have a chance at happiness with my son," Mrs. Wilson sneered, "If you came here to see James, then where is he?"
My heartbeat increased as I stood there utterly confused while trying to grasp, "He wasn't aware I would be here, I came here to pay him a surprise visit so it's understandable if he is not here," I replied quickly.
"How stupid of you to think in that shallow way of yours Ellie, my son will never take you as a wife and that is why I believe he is out to pursue someone worth his time," Mrs. Wilson replied in a quick sharp tone.
"What do you mean by that Mrs. Wilson, what is going on, and where is James?" I asked angrily.
"I'm sorry, Ellie," she uttered in a voice filled with no remorse. "But James is getting engaged... to someone else."

***

Falling for Her Ex's Enemy

　　I was so embarrassed after I found out who he was. What was I thinking??


　　I covered my face in shame and wanted to leave. How could I have kissed a client to escape my ex?


　　How could I have kissed a stranger in the first place? I don't think I'm cut out for this.


　　If I cannot control my emotions how can I control this case?


　　A lot of questions popped into my head as I stood there speechless. Momentarily I summoned up the courage to apologize.


　　If I wanted to remain professional I have to show that now.


　　"I'm sorry for kissing you. It all happened so fast and I wanted to escape my ex. I never knew you were my client, I..." So many words flew out of my mouth uncontrollably.


　　I don't think I was handling this professionally enough.


　　After he cut me short, I felt like that was it, that I had lost before I started.
