----------
"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.

Get Rid of Him

Accompanied by Lucas, Liliana went to Su Law Group shortly before noon.

Attorney Su was already waiting for them. Fortunately, he was able to free up his schedule today to accommodate Liliana's sudden request to meet.

This morning, Liliana had already sent a text to Attorney Su. She shared the little details she knew about Charlie Dai while asking whether Su Law Group could check if there was any buried news about the man or not.

"Good afternoon, First Young Miss Xin and Mr. Liu," Attorney Su welcomed both of them with a smile, "Seems like we'll only meet when you're having trouble, en?"

Liliana chuckled hearing Attorney Su teasing her. She playfully replied, "Isn't this such a good and meaningful meeting?"

Attorney Su helplessly shook his head. He gestured at the couch, welcoming Liliana and Lucas to sit down. A secretary came to deliver them drinks and snacks.
