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.

SS6: The Eighth Season When the Winter Returned
More months and seasons passed, eventually reaching the early February of the second year Lucas was in London. The wintry month marked the end of his service.
Throughout the two years, Lucas grew more as a person. He learned valuable lessons during his stay in the country far from home, including honing his skills.
The blood, sweat and tears he shed helped shape him into a more exemplary man.
The pale winter sun cast a soft, golden light over the city. Standing opposite the floor-to-ceiling windows, Lucas gazed upon the scenery he had familiarized himself with over these two years.
Lucas would leave London tomorrow. Most of his belongings were already packed in a few suitcases and boxes. He also deep cleaned the studio apartment, the place where he sought shelter for two years.
He would surely miss this city, the witness of his development for the past eight seasons.
