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.

"Change your day off from Tuesday to Monday? Sure. There's no problem."

Without thinking much, Nancy agreed with Lucas' application.

"Really? Thank you, Miss Wu!"

Lucas was delighted because his request was easily granted by the cafe manager. He happily returned to the baking kitchen. It was already a quarter past five.

Monday would come in three more days. It was among the busiest days of the week.

On those days, Lucas prepared more of the cafe's bestseller cakes and pastries, especially his spiced sweet potato cake with frosting.

If only the late Grandpa Chen was still alive, he would be happy to know many people enjoying his secret recipe. It had indeed enamored more customers of CafeOrama.

Knock! Knock!

The knocking sound attracted Lucas' attention. With one glance, his eyes caught the sight of Liliana standing at the door.
