[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.

Old Madam Shen's birthday banquet was always full of guests that came from the upper tier of high society.
Despite knowing that she would face unpleasant and cocky ones, Liliana didn't care about it. She wanted to be there for the old lady, spending more time with her as her days were getting numbered.
At the same time, Liliana also wished to have a private celebration between the two of them. Madam Ma might also be included if she didn't mind joining it. It should be a get-together that would allow them to be more casual and free with one another.
"Since it's your birthday, you can pick the place, Grandma," said Liliana, trying to pour more ideas into Old Madam Shen's head, "Be it during the day or night, just say it. Let's make it a blast!"
"Hahaha~ Of course! I won't say no to it!"
