I’ve thought it through, and I won’t change my mind. Don’t come looking for me again. Once I’m discharged, I’ll send the divorce papers. Just sign them and have Ronald return them to me. I don’t want any drama, and I’d rather we handle this civilly. More importantly, I don’t want Carol to be caught in the middle or made to suffer because of this.” Her words, though calm, pressed down like an unshakable weight.
