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.

Even If You'll Get Hurt By The Truth, You'll Still Want To Know?
What would be her choice?
Liliana recalled Lucas' question. In silence, she returned his stare, quietly taking in the little details of how somber he looked right now.
"What will you do if your husband cheated on you during your marriage?"
"Let's say that you're still married to him and he's actually cheating on you. Miss Wu and Miss Lin knew about it. Do you want them to tell you or... do you choose to not know about it at all?"
Liliana didn't know from where did this question come. She even had a guess that this was the thing that had been bothering Lucas.
"You want to know... what will I choose?"
Liliana tried to discern more from Lucas' solemn gaze but, she found nothing. He only replied to her with one word.
"Yes."
Liliana pursed her lips into a straight line. Instead of prying for more info, she only focused on the question, trying to put herself in that kind of situation.
