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.

Put On Some Disguise, Shouldn't We?
Shouldering the backpack on his right, Lucas headed out of the small apartment. He made sure all electrical appliances got switched off before he locked the door.
Lucas glanced at his wristwatch while walking down the staircase. It was already a quarter to eleven. The summer sun was already high in the sky.
His brother and mother should already be on the train. Lucas' last contact with Kevin was when his brother boarded the bus. Then, he continued finishing his tasks at the cafe before packing his things.
Lucas' day off this week was actually on Thursday. But, he pushed it back to Sunday tomorrow because of his mother's matter. As for today, he simply clocked out early with his boss' consent.
Lucas brought out his motorbike from the annex used as a store. Turning his head around, he cast his eyes on the backdoor of the cafe.
