Get Rid of Him
Volume 5: The last volume for the main story (currently) Volume 6: Side stories (incoming) ---------- "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.

Her Good Relationship With Her Half-Brother
Whistling Creek, Tuesday.
Once Liliana and Lucas got out of the cab, she said to him, "I'll pay you the fare back."
Laughing softly, Lucas shook his head, "No need. I deliberately booked the cab before you did it so that I could pay for it. I'll enjoy the lunch you'll treat me."
Lucas' words prompted laughter out of Liliana's lips. The sound blended with the echoes of the rustling leaves around them.
"Hehe, if you say so."
Today was the day Liliana promised Dylan to meet over lunch. Lucas followed her after agreeing to come along. She told Cassia that she might go to the sanatorium again a bit later.
"Mom, once you're better, I'll take you there. I know you'll love that place."
Before Liliana left the sanatorium to go to the cafe, she didn't forget to say that to Cassia. Her mother smiled at her before nodding, indicating that she understood.
