York.
In my life, I had only ever fallen for Michelle, and there was never another woman.
But things were different now, since we were divorced, I had the right to choose again. While netizens were buzzing about my divorce, we signed a new brand ambassador, Amelia
Unlike Michelle’s fiery and outgoing nature, Amelia was reserved and composed.
Ironically, she played the antagonist in Michelle’s hit movie back in the day.
It was strange. I used to grit my tooth in hatred watching her in that film, but as I’ve gotten older, she’s grown to look more gentle and kind.
When the ambassador announcement dropped, her photos were everywhere, and the comments started flooding in.
[Mr. Thorne, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Picking Michelle’s rival as your ambassador. Are you trying to get under her skin?]
[Let’s be honest, Amelia looks so elegant. Her natural aging without any work done is so refreshing to soo.]
[Exactly! Thorne Group’s products are all–natural, too; Amelia’s perfect for the brand!] [Mr. Thorne and Amelia would make such a good couple!]
Michelle never expected that a simple divorce would tank her public image so quickly.
Then those eight young men also came forward, recounting all the sweet nothings Michelle had whispered to them, along with her coy, girlish voice.
“Baby, you’re all mine tonight!”
“Baby, I miss you so much.”
“Baby, let’s go to the amusement park together!”
The thought of her putting on that flirty voice and calling all those young guys “baby” made my skin crawl.
I couldn’t help but shake my head in disbelief. Thank god I’d gotten out when I did. Who knew how things might have turned out otherwise?
Michelle’s name shot to the top of the trending list, and thanks to those eight guys coming forward and Harris‘ revelations, she stayed in the spotlight.
She didn’t seem to care and even started live–streaming to chat with her followers.
“What’s the big deal about dating? You’re all making a fuss over nothing! ‘Baby‘ is just a pet name! It’s a term of endearment. Don’t tell me you only call each other by your full names without any nicknames. So what if I’m in my sixties? Your sixties are the perfect time for adventure! Who says there’s a way you’re supposed to act at a certain age? I can still care about my appearance and pursue happiness at sixty! What’s wrong with having eight boyfriends? If I could handle it, I’d date eighty!”
Her comments left everyone stunned once again.
Some social media influencers even came out in support of her.
The gender war debate was dragged into it, and Michelle’s fame skyrocketed.

While she continued to milk the publicity, my company completed its transformation.
Before, when she was our spokesperson, I had to hold back on many products.
I was worried her tech–focused image would make clients unhappy and affect the
company’s future.
Things were different now. I could implement bold reforms. Natural and organic food products were trending, so I gave Madison the green light to push forward and transform our product line at the right time.
A month later, I got my divorce papers, and it felt like a weight had been lifted off my
shoulders.
Michelle showed up with her new boyfriend, looking smug when she saw me. “See, Eric? Plenty of people still want me, even without you!”
The guy was pushing fifty, with flowing hair that gave off this 80s hip–hop vibe.
His eyes were full of lust. He was Michelle’s type.
She was always chasing what she calls “freedom,” and men like him were her weakness.
I gave a slight smile. “I wish you all the best.”
As I walked away, I could hear Michelle’s scoff, but I couldn’t care less anymore.

I saw her again three months later.
