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.

What Was Inside The Pouch
Being in a hurry, Liliana didn't stay longer at CafeOrama. She wished to get a glimpse of Lucas but, he had yet to return from the lake.
Then, Liliana rode her bike to get back to her apartment a little over seven. She still had more things to do before deciding on the day to meet everyone.
Once Liliana arrived at Spring Garden Apartment, she tried to destress by taking a long soak in the bathtub. She wanted to check the photo albums and the pouch she found in Cassia's brown box next.
Liliana was certain that she would see more of her mother's childhood photos with her parents.
"Hurm... I need to get a service to move Mom's items here," whispered Liliana with her eyes closed. She was enjoying the hot bath with her favorite bath bomb.
The blue storage boxes were left at Seanic Residence. Even though Albert had promised her that the place was secure, Liliana still wanted to bring them to her apartment. It was for her own convenience.
