Get Rid of Him
[COMPLETED] ---------- "For ten years, I have loved you in vain. Now, my love has withered." Liliana Xin was treated like wallpaper in her four years of marriage with her CEO husband Asher Shen, despite her best efforts to build a happy home. She thought she could endure his neglect, but when a miscarriage got her nothing but a cold shoulder from her husband, Liliana decided enough was enough! "Divorce me this instant." What's the use of wallowing in self-pity? Shouldn't she be her own boss and lead a life without begging for a man's love anymore? It was time for her to squeeze out massive alimony from this apathetic man and leave to become a successful woman on her own! On her healing journey, Liliana crossed paths with Lucas Liu. The younger man had the same forlorn look in his eyes, reminding Liliana of her misery. "Join me. I'll make you more powerful." She promised, wanting to save him to repay him for his kindness. He was there for her at her lowest. With Lucas and her friends, Liliana continued moving forward. She didn't look back at the people who had never cherished her. They were no longer important to her. But there's someone that wasn't happy with this new development. Asher reappeared, his frosty cold mask was replaced with deep regret and longing. "I was wrong. Please, come back! I'll do anything!" Liliana scoffed, turning her back on her first love. She won't repeat the same mistake of loving him ever again. ------------ WSA 2023 Entry: Billionaire/CEO/Mafia Exclusive cover by @khaizusan (Instagram) Tags: slowburn, weaktostrong, boss-subordinate, divorce Please note that the characters are not OP from the start.

Don't Disturb My Peace
||Asher||
Because tomorrow was Saturday, Asher returned to the Shen family's ancestral home instead of his own mansion. If he had to say one reason, it might be to spend more time around the people who cared about him.
Asher's return today had been notified even before he left the company. The staff was aware that he would spend the weekend there.
"Welcome home, Young Master."
With a hand holding a flower basket, Asher walked past the two rows of helpers waiting for him at the entrance. He acknowledged them with a slight nod.
"Is my grandmother in the greenhouse?" asked Asher to no one in particular.
"Yes. The old madam and the young miss are there," answered the head housekeeper.
Asher swiftly made his way there. The sun was still high, it won't set any time soon. He deliberately finished all of his tasks today just so he could return earlier than usual.
