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.

Flowers Rot When Not Being Nurtured

His grandmother's question the other morning made Asher realize that it was really a sense of emptiness that haunted him.

It was something that he didn't want to admit but, her next words defeated him.

"Only yourself know what are you feeling now. How much longer do you plan to resist? Asher, your old grandma here doesn't want to force you on anything, but... the way you live saddens me. Can't you be true to yourself?"

All this time, Asher simply ignored what Old Madam Shen often advised him. He was good at filtering out what he didn't want to follow.

Yet, not this time. Even if he wanted to, those words kept stirring his heart.

The irritation that plagued him since before exploded like hot lava the moment he saw her alone with another man, out of a hotel room.

Her absence... affected him.

But, why?
