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.

Beneath The Lies
Lucas' countenance remained calm while facing his mother Linda, as calm as the distant sea. She was obviously displeased to see him right now.
But, he wouldn't be discouraged by her treatment. No matter what, he needed to achieve his goal today.
Of letting his mother know about what her husband had been doing behind his back.
Lucas also anticipated his mother Linda accusing him of trying to ruin their family. He was already prepared for that.
Speaking in a flat tone, Lucas said to Linda, "Mother, you can be mad at me. But, I'm here with Kevin to tell you something."
Instead of beating around the bush, Lucas immediately voiced his reason for being here.
Linda scowled. Turning her head to the right, she threw daggers at her beloved youngest son, "Why did you collude with your brother? Don't you think he'll speak nonsense to me?"
