I know what Alex was thinking. My wardrobe mainly consisted of formal suits, which did make me seem a bit old–fashioned,
But my mind was still young. I kept up with the times, learned new things, and knew my way around the internet.

I might be 70, but anything the young folks could do, I could do too.
So naturally, changing up my style wouldn’t be too much of a challenge.
Alex’s face lit up with understanding. “Mr. Thorne, you should check out some fashion influencers. Look how sharp this one dresses!”
He boldly recommended an influencer to me. When I clicked on the video, I saw the guy was even older than me. He was 78 years old!
He rocked a trench coat with perfect posture and clearly had quite a following, with people calling him the most handsome grandpa.
I figured I could do just as well. With my good health and circumstances, I could make any outfit look distinguished.
At the mall, I had the sales assistant put together a whole outfit for me. We took some photos, and I asked Alex to post them on our official blog.
Alex looked puzzled. “Mr. Thorne, what’s the point of this?”
“To prove them wrong, of course. Just post it!”
Alex caught on quickly. “Oh, this is about those online comments! Got it! Let me make sure to get your best angles!”
He took me to the shopping district, saying there were professional photographers there who could do an even better job.
As soon as I showed up, I caught the photographers‘ attention. They chased after me, snapping several shots.
They even asked me to model for them, and I was happy to play along.
Alex got the negatives from them and paid for the shots.
We posted nine photos on Instagram, and they instantly drew admiration from netizens.
[Mr. Thorne drops a nine–photo grid, and every shot is magazine–worthy!]
[First time seeing a billionaire throwing shade online! He’s so funny!]
[Mr. Thorne’s street photos are seriously professional.]
[Does anyone know who the photographer is?]
Just like that, the company’s reputation did a complete 180, with employees even jumping in to defend me.
[Mr. Thorne has always been kind and funny. During harvest season, he arranged a staff field trip and took us all to connect with nature.]
The netizens cracked up at this: [Making you work, and you’re not even mad?] [Mad? We got paid three thousand dollars for the trip! Would you turn that down?]
Netizens immediately flooded my official Instagram. [Mr Thorne Larowun in tho

[Mr. Thorne, do you need help harvesting rice? I’ll help!]
[Mr. Thorne, count me in too! I don’t care about the money. I just want to connect with nature.]Just like that, my reputation did a complete 180. Some even called me a sweet old man and claimed Michelle had taken advantage of me.
Some fans advised me not to give her a penny in the divorce.
I chuckled and showed them the divorce agreement, letting them know we were already divorced and I’d given her what she deserved.
[As a man, I protected her throughout our life together. Now that we’re older, she deserves money to live comfortably in her later years.]
My words made Michelle furious. She called me immediately.
“Eric, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? I’m not old at all! What do you mean by ‘later years‘? I’ve got plenty of money. I don’t need you to support me!”
I snorted. “Michelle, just keep that money safe. Don’t let those young boys scam you out of it!
I hung up before she could respond. I could just imagine how pissed off she must be.
Did she really think those guys were interested in her tech–enhanced face and bubbly personality?
Those men would only behave themselves if they were hanging on the wall!
