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.

Thwarted His Plan To Interrogate Her
"Talia, don't stop me if I hit your dad with a cane next," said Old Master Ding out of a sudden while walking down the hallways with his granddaughters.
Talia squinted her eyes, "Don't worry, Grandpa. Just do it. I'm upset with Dad too."
Liliana didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was amused by their conversation.
From the moment the three of them walked out of the Chrysanthemum Room, Old Master Ding and Talia voiced out their discontent toward Alexander. It was so clear how dissatisfied they were with how Alexander reacted toward Liliana earlier.
"Your father... is something else. But, still better than mine," replied Liliana after a moment of thinking.
Old Master Ding scoffed while Talia rolled her eyes. Liliana held back from laughing.
Soon, they reached Old Master Ding's bedroom on the first floor. He planned to get some rest before dinner time. Liliana helped the old man sit on the bed.
