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 Small Yet Uncanny Discovery
|-Talia-|
After parting ways with Liliana and Shaelyn earlier, Talia immediately headed home. An assistant of hers, Miss Tang was already waiting there with two more people. They came from a science institute.
"Welcome back, Third Young Miss," Miss Tang greeted Talia. Her action was followed by the two people.
"Wait here. I'm going to change first," said Talia to them. She hurried to her bedroom.
Once Talia was clad in her silk night robe, she immediately returned to where the three of them were waiting for her. She didn't have time to catch her breath.
"What do you need from me? My hair?"
Talia threw the question to the two women. They were wearing professional suits with the institute logo embossed on their left chests. One of them was holding a bulky briefcase.
"That will do. But, let us take a swab of your inner cheek too," said the one with the briefcase.
Nodding her head, Talia agreed, "Alright."
