Rebirth In Divorce My New Mr. Perfect (by Summer Knowles) novel Chapter 571

At Troy's signal, his men immediately understood. They dragged Dan aside and gave him a brutal beating.

After they left, Dan collapsed on the ground, gasping for air, his face and head bloody from the beating.

The door was still open when a well-dressed man in a suit walked in, chuckling softly.

Dan startled, thinking it was Troy. "Troy, please... Wait, who the hell are you? Get out!"

The man smiled faintly. "After that beating, you still haven't learned? I'm here to offer you money. Interested?"

Money?

Dan sized up the visitor, his eyes fixed on the man's watch. He'd seen it on TV - worth millions, easily enough to clear his debt.

His demeanor changed instantly, putting on a fawning smile. "Please, sit down, Sir!”

Still covering his bleeding nose, he added, "Let me clean up first."

The man found a relatively clean spot to sit, drumming his fingers on the table. "Do something for me. Payment is one million."

Dan's eyes widened as he nodded frantically. "Anything, just name it."

...

After leaving the slum, Steven sniffed his clothes. Dan's apartment had reeked of every imaginable foul odor.

Moldy takeout rotting in corners, empty beer bottles scattered across the floor, dead rats and roaches decomposing in wall corners. He'd even found plastic bottles filled with suspicious liquids by the bed.

"Understood."

Steven's expression grew serious. Having been involved in the investigation, he knew what this meant.
