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.

Money Makes Us Happy, Trash Won't

Liliana only slowed her steps when she entered the hallway leading to the elevators. Briefly glancing beside her, she saw Lucas' concerned look.

"...sorry."

Liliana slowly let go of Lucas' arm and walked ahead of him before stopping. Her expression carried traces of shame. Unshed tears pooled in her eyes as she held back from crying.

Lucas stared at Liliana's hunched back. He clenched his fists for a moment, his mind was trying to digest the incident that had just happened.

"Miss Xin, don't say sorry," said Lucas after a period of silence.

Liliana sniffled. She rubbed her eyes, still refraining from crying.

Without looking back at Lucas who stood behind her, Liliana answered, her voice was croaked, "I'm too... angry and ashamed. I'm exhausted. Just why... he can't understand? I don't want... to have anything... to do with him anymore."
