Luna Scribe

"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 have no idea what to think right now, After Ellie's behavior. But what did she mean by "What do I expect her to say?" I thought she said she wanted to keep things professional.


　　Then why is all this drama? There were more questions than answers. None of which I was certain I'd get.


　　Moments after my met with Ellie, I heard a knock on my door. "Come in," I replied, and Sandra swooped in with takeouts in her hands.


　　"No, you shouldn't have," I said as she approached in with them.


　　"I had to, you've been working all day and I know you need this," she replied.


　　"Okay then, let me wrap this up," I said and cleared some of the papers off my desk, creating space.


　　She handed over the paper bag and I got the package out.


　　It was fries and cola, not the ideal lunch but it'll get me through the day.


　　"This. This is very nice," I complemented the food.


　　"Are you kidding? It's great," I replied. Making her smile.
