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.

In The Midst Of The Enchanting Bamboo Forest
Tomorrow's sun rose over the horizon, signaling the start of a brand new day. The outpouring of sunlight cast a glow all over the objects underneath. People began their day as usual.
Liliana slept so soundly. She only woke up once at six to use the toilet once before sleepily returning to her bed. It felt so good to sleep in after an exhausting night yesterday.
But, Liliana didn't forget her appointment to meet Talia for lunch. She decided to lay everything out in the open and present her choice to the latter soon.
At half-past ten, Liliana dragged herself out of bed.
After washing her face and brushing her teeth, she went to the kitchen. Still feeling sleepy, she poured some cold milk into a glass before heading to the living room.
Liliana opened the sliding door of the balcony. While sipping the milk, she feasted her eyes on the lake. The dazzling autumn sunlight cast a glow over the surface, resulting in tiny sparkles.
