The newspaper said the offer to return the money was made in a letter from Daniels' lawyer, Michael Avenatti, to Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen. Avenatti said Daniels would wire the money into an account of Trump's choosing by Friday, the Times said. Avenatti said last week that Daniels "believes it's important that the public learn the truth about what happened. It shows that Daniels received a $130,000 payment from a company known as Essential Consultants LLC in return for her silence. Using the pseudonyms Peggy Peterson and David Dennison, Daniels and Trump were to sign the agreement, along with Essential Consultants.
