[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.

Liliana parted ways with Mrs. Fu and Harris at noon when the weather was getting hotter. She thanked the mother and son before riding her bike, heading to Misty Vale Sanatorium.
The air felt good as she glided through the wind. Liliana hummed to a song, her mood was really light today, unlike the previous ones.
Whether it was the weekday or the weekend, Misty Vale Sanatorium was always busy. Liliana immediately went inside after she parked the bike.
"Hello, Miss Xin."
"You look so happy today. Any good news?"
The questions came from the nurses who Liliana got familiarized herself with. She laughed softly hearing them.
"It's nothing much. I just returned from a picnic by the lake."
The nurses teased Liliana, asking if she actually went on a date. She gave them a mysterious smile before walking inside Cassia's personal ward.
