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.

After so long, the rumors began to fade, much to Lucas' relief.
The students were bored because Lucas didn't give them much reaction. Lucas' winning in the first round of Dewsbury Bake-Off also helped to deter their attention away from the rumors.
Lucas and Ethan won against the opposing team, allowing them to enter the second round. The next round was scheduled for next week on Saturday.
"If he has a rich sugar mom, why does he still wear worn-out clothes?"
"He's a talent ah. The judges are never biased. Didn't you see how he worked well with that Zu lad?"
"Tsk, I think Ethan who carries their team. He doesn't work much."
"Nonsense. You can't fake being skillful when everyone's watching."
They were people who still doubt Lucas' skills in baking despite witnessing him in the first round. He paid them no heed. They could talk and craft any speculations all they wanted.
