Your hope now relies on the asylum filing. Apparently USCIS are convinced your marriage either wasn’t bonafide or your husband pulled the 130 or 864 so adjusting by marriage is dead in the water.

Why would you have asylum pending?  Are you referring to VAWA?

When I came to US, I applied to asylum. And it is till pending. I haven't applied for VAWA

And now you have been ordered to leave the US, it sounds like.  Do you have an attorney?

How did you enter the US?  How long has your asylum case been pending?

I sent this information to the attorney. But it sounds strange, that the order me to leave the country. Because I still have asylum pending which allows me to stay in the country

yes, it is. And it will be discussed with lawyer once weekend is over. But it is so scary to receive a letter that states we have to leave the country in 33 days...Even though we have asylum pending. Probably they have a certain pattern for such kind of denials (i485/i130) and they simply don't change the text.. Anyway, it was always hard to live through this weekend with uncertainty...
