"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

　　It was a brand new day and I was more than excited to get to work today.


　　I left the house early today since I needed to get to work early. I had tons of files I needed to review and a few clients to meet.


　　As I sat in the taxi, I thought of how my relationship with Ryan would pan out if I told him the truth about my feelings.


　　After my conversation with Ellie the previous day, I realized that I had to be honest about my feelings for Ryan, and having a conversation with him will help give clarity to our relationship moving forward.


　　Although winning the case is my top priority at the moment, I would love to explore my feelings with Ryan after the case is over.


　　"It's going to be okay Ellie, you don't have to be too hard on yourself," I muttered to myself.


　　After a few minutes, we arrived at my office building. I alighted the taxi after paying for the ride and headed inside the building.
