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.

They Needed To Remember The Happy Times
Liliana brought Old Madam Shen and Audrey to the main residence after they spent quite some time in the yard. She led them to one of the drawing rooms where Old Master Ding was waiting for them.
Along the way, the three of them bumped into a few of the Ding family's relatives. Liliana just answered vaguely when they tried asking several questions. They looked oddly happy with the sight of Old Madam Shen.
"This is your first time meeting most of them, right, Lili?" asked Old Madam Shen quietly once they walked past the relatives.
Liliana nodded. She took a glance at the back. The relatives had disappeared at an intersection.
"Grandpa only introduced me to a very few before the banquet. He didn't want everyone to know about me."
Old Madam Shen hummed softly. She understood that Luciana's elder brother was trying to be careful. He wanted to ensure Liliana's first official appearance would not be tainted with unsavory remarks.
