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.

Where Was Her Home Now?
"Ah, Miss Xin. Good evening."
Mrs. Li greeted Liliana the moment the latter stepped inside the ward. The middle-aged woman was wiping the cabinet put in a corner of the private room.
"Good evening, Mrs. Li," Smiling, Liliana greeted Mrs. Li in return.
Despite of what Asher did on the first day CafeOrama opened its door to the public, Liliana didn't hold any resentment against Mrs. Li and Ms. Li, the former's niece-in-law.
It was indeed shocking for Liliana to know Ms. Li was affiliated with Asher. He was also a customer of Bloom & Bliss, claiming that he personally made the glass frame art there.
Frankly, Liliana was skeptical of that fact.
The Asher she knew was not someone who would waste his time doing anything sentimental like that. He would rather order his subordinates to do his bidding.
But...
He was also not a liar. He didn't mince his words just to spare someone's feelings. It was how he had always been.
