"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

　　Ryan and I said goodbye to some of the guests and his close associates at the end of the gala and it was time to go home.


　　He insisted on taking me home and I had no choice but to oblige.


　　We made our way to the hotel's parking lot and got to Ryan's car, he opened the door for me and I entered inside taking my seat.


　　He got into the car and fixed his seat belt, starting the car as we set them to leave.


　　He looked over to my side and noticed that my seat belt was not done and he leaned over to my side.


　　"You should always remember to use your seat belts, Miss," he said leaving over and helping me with my seat belt.


　　My eyes blinked simultaneously as I held my breath until he was done, I know I have seen him more often and I have gotten a lot more comfortable with Ryan but having him up close to me was something entirely different.


　　"Thank you," I said under my breath as he leaned over to the other side of the seat.
