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.

They Would Be Her Weapon

The surprise picnic from Lucas helped to lighten Liliana's mood. She didn't drop by the cafe, instead, she immediately went home. Her body and mind were so exhausted.
Liliana had a good and long soak in the bathtub. She enjoyed the small peace offered by being in solitude. Occasionally, she played with the water, letting it ripple in the tub.
Before the water cooled down entirely, Liliana got out of the tub. She drained the water, wrapped her body in a bathrobe and stepped out of the washroom.
Her eyes were drawn to the brown box sitting on the bed. Next to it was her mother's diaries.
Inside them... would she find something new?
Shaking her head, Liliana went inside the walk-in wardrobe. She put on a cotton nightgown before applying a simple skincare routine. She was too tired to do the extra steps tonight.
