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.

The Night Before The Meeting

"Lili... what are... you thinking?"

Hearing the voice and feeling a soft caress on the back of her hand, Liliana was brought out of her trance. She blinked a few times before looking at Cassia. Her mother was leaning against the reclined bed.

"Oh, nothing, Mom," Liliana tried to reassure Cassia with a smile. She squeezed her mother's hand, "I'm just thinking how good the new place will be for you."

Cassia's lips slowly curled into a smile. Her eyes glinted softly, "Mom can't wait... too."

Liliana grinned. Joy overflowed from her eyes and lips. While adjusting the blanket covering Cassia's legs, she asked, "Grandpa will come tomorrow. Are you nervous, Mom? This will be your first time meeting him."

"A bit," replied Cassia with a faint laugh.

Liliana reached out for both of Cassia's hands. Her smile softened as her eyes were locked into her mother's gaze.
