[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.

Stunned, Liliana dazedly stared at Talia. Questions rose in her mind.
Was Miss Ding really the CEO of Sparkllure?
She was not simply a representative?
Talia continued talking. She seemed to be at ease even though this was her first time at the Xin family's banquet.
"I was there when Miss Xin bought the jewelry set. She said it was for someone's birthday. The gift box is indeed the same one we issued to keep the jewelry pieces."
Thomas and Katherine looked at one another. They didn't foresee the appearance of this unknown young lady, claiming she was the owner of the jewelry brand.
Liliana smiled at Talia, "I didn't expect to see you here, Miss Ding. And, I never thought you're the CEO."
"I didn't see the need to tell everyone at that time. Miss Xin, seems like you're in trouble once again because of the Amethyst Lily set," Talia laughed softly.
