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.

Two Requests From Him
Despite being surprised by Asher's appearance, Liliana quickly reminded herself not to act out of sorts. She calmly faced her former husband and nodded.
"Please lead me the way."
Asher was inwardly relieved to see that Liliana didn't show any disdain on her face or question him. He gestured in a direction.
"This way."
Liliana followed Asher from behind before he slowed down his pace. Side-by-side, they walked toward the hallway on the right side of the hall.
Half of the guests' attention fell on them. They exchanged whispers about the sight they were currently seeing right now.
"She gets special treatment until now?"
"Even the young master himself came to get her. Didn't they divorce in sour notes?"
"Hush! The old madam ordered him to go and fetch her. There's no other reason."
Liliana held back her smile. She was amused by these people's ability to keep paying attention to someone who was not related to them.
