"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

　　No one ever takes you seriously until you become a threat, and that is what is happening right now.


　　Mr Anderson and I had rarely had a conversation before, but now he wants one with me. If this happened months ago, I would have been very happy and jumped at the opportunity.


　　I always wished he would just accept me then when I was with James but now it's too late. I'm not sure why he wanted to speak to me directly but I have to be prepared for anything.


　　"Nah, I'm not even going there. I am just going to keep calm in my office and let them be," I said to myself and proceeded with my work.


　　I was about done anyway, so I quickly rounded up and packed up. I left my office after locking up, quickly making my way to the exit.


　　When I boarded a cab to take me home, I thought it was due time I got a car; this whole waiting and looking for a cab felt kind of off.
