"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."

***

Ellie's dream wedding crumbles when she learns from James's mother that he's engaged- to another woman. 

Heartbroken but determined, Ellie throws herself into her law career, vowing to rebuild her life. With her best friend's support, Ellie takes on a career-defining case: a lawsuit against her ex's company.
Can Ellie outwit her ex's family in court while healing her own wounds? And is there a chance for love to find her again in the midst of it all?

Falling for Her Ex's Enemy

　　I woke up early and started preparing for the day.


　　I wasn't determined to let the previous night affect my mood, as today I had a lot of meetings, and they were going to be tedious.


　　So, I quickly headed into the bathroom to get a quick shower before heading over to the closet.


　　As usual, I would go for a suit but with different ties or shoes or something.


　　I explored some options before deciding to go black on black.


　　I was ready to go in no time, so I bolted into my car and hit the road.


　　On my way, I stopped to grab a quick bite at a fast-food restaurant. I usually take it to go but that is when I'm going over to Ellie's to drop them off.


　　But since things are looking kind of uncertain giving her some space seems like the right call.


　　Judging by that fact, I just decided to have breakfast there.


　　I loved eating in the outdoors as it gave me a sense of nature. After I was done I headed into the office.
