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.

She Was Not A Saint
"When I heard Second Uncle say you're my sister's pastry chef, I thought wow~ Was this fate ah? If it's someone else who heard those two men, they might do nothing next."
As they enjoyed the scrumptious dishes, Liliana and Lucas listened to Dylan narrating about what happened to him that night. The young man also told them what his parents did to Janice and the Tang parents.
"I told Mom and Dad not to go overboard. Especially, Mom. She actually wanted the young miss and her parents to issue a public apology to me."
Liliana could imagine Katherine suggesting doing such a thing. The latter wouldn't ever let her or her close ones be in disfavor. More so when the situation involved her only and precious son, the heir of the Xin family.
"Then, what happened?" Liliana clipped some shrimp and put them into her bowl, "I asked Second Uncle about it but, he told me to ask you myself."
