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.

On The Cobblestone Street
After having a light lunch, Talia brought Liliana to the nearby business district. Unsurprisingly, Old Master Ding wished to follow.
Thus, they rode a sedan car to get there before they started walking on the cobblestone streets.
"It's livelier than I imagined," said Liliana to Talia. She couldn't keep her eyes away from admiring the rustic buildings that stood proudly throughout the district.
The gentle summer haze shimmered on the buildings and streets, giving Liliana a sense of peace.
There were many passersby there, either locals or tourists. They ventured by foot or by bike, trying to get the most out of the district's charm.
Talia couldn't help but grin as she heard how the place enchanted Liliana. Glancing at the latter, she replied proudly, "It's good, isn't it? I always came here whenever I was bored at home. The bakeries and cafes here are good to unwind."
