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.

I Don't Want My Brother Die A Bachelor
During the time Lucas visited the Zhu family's cafe, Fresh Brew, he was introduced to Ethan's elder brother who ran the cafe. His name was Edgar Zhu, aged twenty-seven.
Edgar had been operating Fresh Brew from the first year he graduated from the university. Instead of entering the corporate field as how most of his friends were, he chose to be a cafe manager instead.
"I'm not interested to climb the corporate ladder. My job right now is less stressful. I even have my own small team to run the cafe."
That was what Edgar told Lucas when the latter asked about his interest. The older man was approachable, allowing Lucas to be at ease with him from the first time they met.
"Did you say... your brother Edgar likes Miss Lin?"
Lucas found the news so surprising. He knew that Edgar was single. His last relationship was more than five years ago. Ethan was the one who told him about the unnecessary information.
