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.

That Person Wouldn't Ever Be Me
On a spring day ten years ago, her heart was enamored by the young man she crossed paths with. He was frigid from the start but, she loved to sneak glances at him.
Unfortunately, he was like a rare flower that grew on the highest peak. Someone who was so out of reach for her.
Once she knew who his identity was, she suppressed her feelings yet, they continued growing until the unexpected day she was offered to marry him.
But, before the tenth spring graced her life, she chose to end the bond that link them together.
It was painful. No one could fathom how much her heart ached because of her own choice but, she did it because she wanted to start prioritizing and loving herself more.
Liliana cast her eyes on Asher who stood a few feet away from her.
Somehow, he looked a bit different tonight. His usually stoic expression had a hint of anxiousness in it, something she had never expected to see.
