Rebirth In Divorce My New Mr. Perfect (by Summer Knowles) novel Chapter 826

He didn't want anyone to see him walking with these two people.

Sarah and Melvin exchanged glances. "Fine."

St. Ritz Restaurant.

In a corner private room, Sarah and Melvin sat on one side while Dr. Xavier sat across from them.

Without question, St. Ritz had the strongest confidentiality in all of East Coast.

After the dishes were served, Melvin had the waitstaff close the door and hang a "Do Not Disturb" sign.

"Dr. Xavier, can you talk now?" Melvin asked.

Dr. Xavier hurriedly grabbed the cup in front of him and took a heavy gulp of tea before speaking anxiously, "I can tell you what you want to know, but you have to give me back those files."

Those investigation materials worried him deeply—they could destroy him.

"Dr. Xavier, I think you've forgotten that you're in no position to negotiate with me. Now, tell me everything about Tina’s case, every single detail." Melvin's eyes erupted with endless coldness.

Dr. Xavier swallowed hard. How had he forgotten that this wasn't an exchange?

He'd already drained his cup, so he immediately picked up the teapot and refilled it. Only after finishing these actions did he speak. "Your suspicions are correct—that autopsy report was fake. When Tina Mendes fell from such a height, nearly every bone in her body was broken. So no one would notice the strange wounds. The fact that you even spotted the bruising on her back... Actually, even though I'm not a crime scene expert, I could tell that day on the rooftop that there were definitely signs of a struggle. If I could be bought off, it means someone from the investigation team was probably bought off too."

His thoughts drifted further away, as if returning to that day.

He recited these words mechanically.

After confirming these details, he didn't have much else to do. There were no professional tools here—the detailed examination would come later.

The police took the body away while he remained in a daze. Besides thinking about the heart situation, he was also worried about his loans.

To obtain that heart, he'd paid enormous sums. The surgery itself required money, and heart transplant procedures would cost even more.

So he'd been forced to borrow from loan sharks. Though the surgery was successful, he'd been dragged deep into the mud.

If the heart theft was discovered, he might go straight to prison. But even if it remained hidden, he was still trapped in the quicksand of high-interest debt.
