His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Chapter 429

He mulled over a lot of things, the ones that made sense and the ones that didn't. But after a long hesitation, he still couldn't bring himself to sign his name. "Mr. Casper, is something bothering you?" Dillon asked, puzzled by the mix of emotions on Casper's face.

Casper, visibly irritated, tossed the pen onto the table. "Divorce isn't exactly a joyful occasion. Signing this feels like lifting a thousand-pound weight." Hadn't he already decided?

Why the sudden hesitation now?

"Mr. Casper, are you having second thoughts, or are you just conflicted? I can't figure you out."

Casper let out a bitter laugh, his smile tinged with sadness.

Second thoughts?

Conflicted?

Did he even have a say in this?

He could only go with the flow.

"Dillon, sometimes, life's just unfair to men."

Dillon: ...

What's with Mr. Casper suddenly waxing poetic?

Love... it really does a number on a good man.

"Mr. Casper, if she wasn't meant to be yours, forcing it won't make it sweet. Living in bitterness every day, isn't that worse?"

Casper got it.

That's why he chose to let go.
