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.

You're Hurt Because Of Me

"B-boss Xin!"

Lucas saw nothing but Liliana falling from the stairs. The breeze hit him hard, he charged forward and hastily grabbed her arm in the last crucial second.

"Ah! You're falling!"

"C-careful!"

The passersby yelled. They got caught in the shocking event. The person who bumped into Liliana earlier froze on his spot, unable to perceive what was happening due to his simple action.

"Ergh!"

Lucas tried to tug Liliana back but, he lost his footing to the clashing force of her weight pulled by gravity.

"Mr. Liu!" shouted Liliana, awake from her shock.

Liliana stretched out one arm, frantically seizing the steel railing. Her hand missed it by a tiny fraction.

Lucas did the same and managed to grab it. His palm skidded on the steel surface before a post cap stopped him.

Yanking Liliana toward him, Lucas twisted his body. His back crashed on the railing, breaking off the fall.

"S-safe!"
