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 Owe Me A Round Of Game
"Go and try to get some sleep. Do you have a class tomorrow? If not, let's meet at noon."
Lucas still tried to calm the distraught Kevin down. He reminded his younger brother not to overthink the matter until losing his sleep. They arranged to meet at Kevin's university tomorrow afternoon.
After ending the call, Lucas felt a void overtake his heart. He slipped the phone inside the pocket of his cotton pants. Its weight pulled the pants lower, revealing his two mermaid lines.
"What the hell..."
Lucas let out a sigh he tried to suppress. His mind was actually still registering the news coming from Kevin earlier. The look in his eyes darkened.
If this was true, how long had his father been doing this?
As far as Lucas remembered, his father Richard was not usually at home. He claimed that he was swamped with endless work but, with this revelation, Lucas wondered if this was the reason his father was always busy.
"Shit. I better sleep."
