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.

Their Grandfather Was the Most Affected One
"Wow~ Did my cousin dream of a youth fountain last night? You look so glowing ah!"
Talia's teasing pinkened Liliana's cheeks into plum blossoms. Glaring at her second cousin, she swiftly extended a hand to pinch Talia's right arm.
"Look at the mirror! You're all dolled up too!"
"Hahaha! I'm telling the truth ah! I'll wait outside!"
"Talia!"
Bursting out laughing, Talia quickly freed herself from Liliana's crab claw. The echo of her giggles bounced off the walls, turning the quiet morning merrier.
Talia ran toward the main entrance, leaving Liliana in the hallway. They planned to ride the car together as the former would drop her cousin at the cafe.
Despite it being Sunday, Talia had something to do at the Sparkllure office.
Liliana pursed her lips. Narrowing her eyes, she stared at Talia's disappearing back. The heat that emanated from her cheeks flared to her entire face.
'Do I look that obvious?'
