[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 getting the answer she wanted from her uncle, Liliana felt as if a huge burden left her shoulders. She didn't know whether Albert could really deliver his words or not but, at least she could be hopeful for now.
Knowing Albert, he always kept his promises despite how small it was. He would give all his might to realize them.
Liliana understood that the only obstacle right now was her father Thomas. As long as he didn't sniff anything suspicious from the activity, everything would be fine.
"Give me one week. I'll contact you later, Lili."
Those were Albert's words at the end of their conversation. Liliana was so relieved. She agreed with her uncle.
"Thank you again, Second Uncle. Please be careful."
That night, Liliana went to bed with a peaceful mind. She couldn't wait to get everything that belonged to Cassia back and go through them.
