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.

He could only go with the flow.
