"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's been about a week since we rejected the offer from Ans Inc., and we sent them a counteroffer, which they are yet to respond to.


　　The court hearing is just around the corner, and if they want a settlement, they would have to make it snappy.


　　The situation between Ryan and me is still kind of shaky. We didn't talk after that day, and I want to find a way to do that.


　　In the meantime, I still have other minor cases to handle, so I have to give it some time, too.


　　One of which is a pro Bono. I decided to take one about to help some migrants. The essentials of the case are confidential, but doing this once in a while helps to boost confidence.


　　I needed it for now because I'll need all the confidence I can get when I face them. The hearing was in 15 minutes.


　　Which is more than enough time for me to get there and represent them. I left my office and headed to court. It's been a while since I last showed up in court. Let's see if I still got it.
