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.

The Amethyst Lily
As planned, Liliana headed to Luxe Valley two days later. She wanted to invite Nancy and Nadia along but, both of them were busy with their respective jobs.
"The store... at the ground floor, I think."
Liliana glanced around the area, eyes darting from one shop to the next.
There were not many people here today, much to Liliana's relief. She headed in a direction, thinking that she would find the jewelry stores she was looking for.
"En?"
Liliana paused her steps. Her gaze was drawn to a store.
Countless gold and pastel purple balloons were hung at the entrance. A few elaborate flower stands were placed on both sides of the entrance with wishes printed on the huge ribbons and cardboard.
'Congratulations on the grand opening!'
Looking up, Liliana read the name of the store. Her eyes widened in recognition.
Sparkllure.
This was a well-known jewelry brand from abroad!
