----------
"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

Half an hour before nine, a black sedan pulled up in front of the main entrance of Queen's Crown Hotel. The car signal light was still blinking, indicating the driver was just dropping off the passenger.

Grabbing her handbag, Liliana smiled at Mr. Chi, "You want to wait for me here, right? Mr. Chi, go and enjoy a good time somewhere nice. Maximize the company's credit card ah."

Liliana's words enticed Mr. Chi to laugh. He nodded once at her, "I'll surely do that, Fourth Young Miss. Contact me anytime you want to go back."

Liliana quickly alighted the car. She didn't need Mr. Chi to open the door for her. As she reached one foot out, her knee-length skirt billowed gracefully.

Even though Saturday was usually meant to laze at home, Liliana didn't want to miss watching Lucas competing in the first round of the bake-off. She wanted to show her support to him.
