Paid Payback Novels & Stories

“I did some quick math.” I lean forward excitedly again. “I used easy numbers, knowing you don’t know how much you can repay each month. It doesn’t matter to me if it’s a thousand dollars or ten thousand dollars. Obviously the more you can afford, the faster you can pay off the debt. I went with a split of five thousand a month. Based on the current return of investment in the plan where I intend to put your money, if you provided five thousand dollars a month, your first quarter’s dividend would be this. Fifty percent of that comes back to me, and the rest reinvests,” he says, showing me the numbers.

"That loan you gave me...." Will he be unhappy about this? He'll be making less out of the deal.... "Mmm? What about it?" "I can pay you back now." He pauses, beer can halfway to his mouth. "Already? A year early?" "Yes, a year early. Is that alright with you?" "Alright? Of course it's alright. Michael, I'm delighted for you. I know how much work you've put into making your business work. It's good to see you getting the payback."

There were gasps and murmurs as the investors leaned forward, evidently enthralled by the room. The voice of Lucas was stable as he described the financial breakdown. "The first investment payback is estimated to be two times after three years and it increases steadily every year thereafter." His claims were hollow, as were those of others, his eyes glanced quickly at Liam, "--our numbers are supported by data, checked reports, and sound prognoses."

Angela chuckled and replied, "You wish for me to solicit one million pounds from my boyfriend and then give it to you?" "I will repay you as soon as possible," Cynthia reiterated. "Let me pose a question: if I were to request one million pounds from my boyfriend to lend to you, how do you plan to repay him? Will your occasional hairstyling bring in that amount?" Angela countered. "That is not an issue; I will find another way to repay," Cynthia assured her. Angela hesitated to inform Cynthia that Ethan had not received a salary for the past two months. "Well, I understand your request, but the reality is that Ethan has not been paid for two months now. He has already invested a substantial a

But now he sighed and leaned one shoulder against the frame. “You’re not leaving,” he said. Mya blinked. “I… I can’t pay—” “I know,” Pike interrupted gently. “But you’re not leaving. You’ll pay me back once you’re on your feet.” Her throat tightened. “Pike, that’s—” “Don’t thank me yet,” he said, holding up a hand. “I need you to do something in return. Not money. Initiative.” Her brows furrowed. “Initiative?”

Gale said, " I borrowed twenty thousand dollars from you last time, and I said I would pay it back." He narrowed his eyes and said, "Where did you get the money?" "I only have ten thousand dollars now. The salary will be paid today. I'll pay you back half first, and I'll pay you the rest next month." "Either pay it back all at once or don't pay it back at all." Gale bit her lower lip. "Then I only have to return it to you next month." "Get out." Shawn pressed his eyebrows deeply. "Next time you interrupt my lunch break, I'll throw you out!"

"So much?" Jacob gulped. "John, I was just trying to avoid arousing Ms. Thompson's suspicion, that's why I charged her at the regular rate. But I'll figure out a way to pay it back." "Hmm." John's expression remained calm. "I've told you that you have to handle the intel part on your own. If you want to pay it back, do so." Jacob wondered if he wanted to pay it back. Alright, John said he wanted him to pay it back, so he had to pay it back.

Phoebe sighed, “you know that’s not what I mean.” “No, no, no, no, what do you mean then? Huh, telling me that I don’t pay back, what is that supposed to mean then? You are talking as if I won’t give it back if I have it. I haven’t paid back because I don’t have it and you know it.” “But when you do have it, Cal, you don’t give me, you don’t pay back. Rather, you will go out to drink with your friends.”

She could pay part of it back without hurting the company's cash flow. She sighed and said, "Alright, I'll pay back $750,000 now. That's okay, isn't it?" Grandpa huffed, "Fine, but you have one month to pay the rest of the $750,000. No mistakes." The other relatives piped up, "Right, nobody's money just blows in with the wind. She needs to pay it all back and fast." "We've got a big project coming up at Jones Real Estate. We need the money ready. A month's grace is more than fair."

Only the living do. “What does payback buy me?” “Half a million.” No flinch from him. No gasp from me. I did the math while keeping my face bored. “Half up front?” “No. Three parts. Signing. Six months. Completion.” “And the rules?” “No scandal. No leaks. And once you sign, you don’t go back to the stage.” I lifted my chin because the only thing I own is my body. “You think you get to tell me where my body goes?”
