[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.

Focusing on Asher's out-of-character behavior was not on Liliana's mind right now. She fully ignored him as she was preoccupied with more important matters.
The 999 red roses were distributed to everyone in the apartment building. Liliana enlisted Mrs. He and the security guards' assistance. Throwing them away was so wasteful.
Today, Liliana headed to Arcane Business District, where one of the high-end commercial buildings she owned was located on Garnet Street.
The building named Crystal 12th had twelve floors; three basement levels and nine above ground. Because it was a stone's throw away from the bustling Arcane train station, it was among the hotspots.
"First Young Miss Xin, it's a pleasure to be of assistance to you."
Liliana's arrival was welcomed by the director of Crystal 12th, Mr. Shao. He waited for her in the lobby with two assistants by his side.
