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.

Among the Sea of People

Liliana witnessed the proudest moment for Lucas tonight.

After Chairman Xia and Alvin gave their speeches, they invited Lucas and Mr. Zheng to the stage. Liliana watched from a spot on the ballroom floor, her eyes twinkling with pride.

Stepping forward, Alvin introduced the two men himself instead of letting the emcee do it. His whole countenance beamed under the lights.

"For the first time ever, Queen's Crown Hotel organized a bake-off to celebrate its 60th anniversary. After several weeks of competing, we crowned Mr. Zheng and Mr. Liu as the ultimate winners."

Alvin explained the key points related to the bake-off, even bringing up the intention of Queen's Crown Hotel to nurture both talents. After concluding his short speech, he handed the mic to Mr. Zheng. 

Liliana didn't pay much attention to what Mr. Zheng wanted to say. Her whole focus was on Lucas. She could tell he was nervous inside despite showing a composed look on the outside.
