Payback Novels & Stories

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."

Lia inquired “ I know that , but it would not be possible because the time on the contact already elapsed” he said stating his reasons “please, we really don’t have the money to pay right now” Kelly pleaded. After a while, Ryan spoke,“ Ok then, I’ll cancel the debt and the contract" " huh!” Lia looked at her sister, who also looked at her with confusion “I’ll cancel the contract but you’ll have to pay some other way” “ What do you mean we’ll pay some other way”Lia asked inquisitively

His eyes scanned back and forth between the optical material models and the electricity cost formula on the board, then locked tightly on the words "two-month payback" After a long silence, he slapped his thigh so hard that it made Avery jump. "Fine, Silas. You win! I'm convinced!" Then, he grabbed Silas' hand and shook it so hard it rattled his gold chain. "The designers I worked with always babbled about minimalist aesthetics and optical narratives until my head spun. You're the first person to sit me down to calculate utility bills and payback timelines! "Your math makes sense, and I respect that."

Still sitting there, still watching me with that same unreadable face, but the guilt was still there underneath. I picked up another piece of toast and took a slow bite this time, chewing while my mind raced. Last night I had asked for this. I had begged for a payback. I had spread my legs for his twin brother and moaned while my husband was on the phone. I swallowed and spoke without looking at him . “I’m still serious about the request. An Eye for an eye. I can pay somebody else.... if you don't want to.....

Seeing that, Sofia quickly added, "If you don't think that's possible, then at least let him borrow the money, Finn. Once the project starts making a profit, he'll pay back every penny-with interest." For the first time since the conversation began, Finn finally reacted. A slow, mocking smirk tugged at his lips. His next words, laced with sheer disdain, cut straight through her act. "Payback? Sofia, do you take me for a fool? Or maybe just an ATM that you and your father can withdraw money from whenever you please?" His voice grew sharper. "Do you believe he'll pay me back? Or is this just another 'investment' where I provide the capital, and he conveniently f

“It’s… a little much, sure. But I’m sure I can work it-” “You are mistaken,” Retchet interrupted. “This is what he borrowed. For this month.” He took out another slip of paper and handed it to her. “This is for last month.” Rebecca took a look, and was even more baffled by the amount. “He has been borrowing approximately this amount every month for the past ten years. And he was able to pay back the money in the first four years, and then paid back the amount in installments in the three years after that. Barely making the cut in the latter two of the three years. And up to today, he had been behind in his payments. Now, with the monthly late fee, this is how much he owes.”

I continued, trying to make Roby understand the urgency of this issue. I stared at my phone screen, hoping to sense a positive response from Roby behind my words. "I know this isn’t an easy request, but I don’t want to be stuck in an even worse situation. I’m confident that if I can get through this, I’ll be able to repay you as soon as possible," I added, hoping Roby could see the sincerity in my words. "Roby, I really appreciate all your help in the past, and I don’t want to ruin our relationship just because of this issue. I promise I will pay you back as soon as I can. I just need a little time to get back on my feet," I said hopefully.

I protest, defensive. "Believe who you want," Baekhoon said with a nonchalant shrug. "Now, when can I expect the compensation? Time is of the essence — I urgently need funds for new projects and employee salaries. My company teeters on the brink of bankruptcy, and my staff's livelihoods hang in the balance." "I'll start paying tomorrow," I assure him, trying to placate. Baekhoon's smile widens, his eyes glinting. "I appreciate your patience. You've got one year minus five days left, after all," he added, his tone dripping with sly satisfaction.

he answered agitatedly, his voice filled with fury and hatred. Subsequently, I fished out my own phone and showed him the chat history between me and Shannon. "This is the chat history between Shannon and me, proving that she contacted me before I left for my work trip so that she could borrow my account." The first message from Shannon read, "Rina, I've lost my job. I heard from Mark that live streamers are doing quite well these days. I want to give it a try too, but starting up an account of my own is just too hard! Could I borrow your side account to test the waters?"

Tristan pauses and smiles at Charlie before he darts his focus away from her. Tristan sighs and facepalms, "Is there no other option? A year is just too long!" He pauses. Series of groans and a couple of silence later, "Okay. Thank you, Sandra. I'll see what I can do. Yeah, how's everything at the office?" Silence, "Okay. I'll see what I can do. Bye." "Welcome back, Charlie." Charlie perks up from her spot behind the counter, "Oh, Tristan! When did you get back?"
