----------
"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

Stepping quietly inside Cassia's bedroom, Liliana saw her mother sitting on the three-seater couch facing the open French doors. The curtains fluttered with each passing of the cool autumn breeze.

Liliana halted in her tracks. Staring at the back of Cassia's head, she recalled the eventful and enjoyable day they experienced on the farm earlier.

Cassia looked genuinely happy. The farm trip seemed to make her more joyful than the picnic at Whistling Creek the other day.

Liliana, Cassia and everyone else spent hours at Moo La Land Farm at the frail older lady's request. Cassia took a short nap in the room Liliana booked before continuing her adventure.

They didn't leave the farm without purchasing some goods from its shop, including fresh milk, cheese, cured meats, jams and various other items.

"Mom is so happy... Thank you, Lili..."
