It's Payback Time Novels & Stories

I stood up, unable to sit still any longer. “Well, congratulations, Ethan. You’ve managed to do the exact opposite of what you intended. Now I have to worry about how we are going to fix this and avoid a lawsuit.” Ethan stood up as well, coming toward me. “l will find a way to pay back the money. I just need some time.” “You’ve said that before. You don't seem to understand that time is running out.”

I had to go back home with something. "Please sir. My father is sorry. He didn't mean to upset you. I promise we'll pay up every single dime he owes you sir." "What do you want from me?" I swallowed hard and spoke up. "Time sir." "Time for what exactly?" He asked. "Time to pay up sir. Two months is too short to pay back the money. I really need more time. Please....." "And how on earth do you plan on paying back?" He started moving. I heard the subtle sound from his shoes. Calculated, calm and stylish, the sound of the soles of his shoe told me exactly how he was moving.

"Now I have to repay the favor." "Wait a minute!"

After her working hours ended, Kathilyn was organising her desk before going back home, when she suddenly felt someone approaching her from behind. "So, are you going to have dinner with me?" She heard Benjamin's voice from beside her ears. "Dinner? Sure if it's on you. I mean you owed me for embarrassing me in front of everyone " Kathilyn rolled her eyes at Benjamin. "Isn't it the opposite? You're the one who should pay since I helped getting you out of trouble." Benjamin scoffed sarcastically. "Alright, I'll pay." He continued before walking out of the office. "I'll wait for you in my car." He said again and made his way to the door.

He wants to be double sure that everything is fine and alright. "Well, I have it done and settled. By 6pm tomorrow the party begins" Lanre assured him. Junxie thanked him and said he appreciates all he was doing for Theresa, the kids and himself. He would be able to pay him a token of the love and sacrifices shown. Lanre said not after he helped him get a double promotion at work. Junxie said that was a tip of the iceberg. He would see more favours when he finally settled down with his family.

"This is my way of payback, you shoukd be thankful enough that my payback is still your pleasure. Now, Are you ready to play again?" He nods.

"I just hate how I sit around doing nothing. I should just go back to work. Plus, nobody is threatening my life anymore. I think I'm safe and secure now..." I squint my eyes. "Are you sure that's the only reason you are going back to Kingswood?" She hesitates for a moment and sighs. "It's a deal." "What kind of deal?" "Someone is offering to buy Clarke!" "What!" I exclaim. "And you wanna sell Dad's company just like that?" "The deal is too tempting and too good!" I raise my eyebrow. "When the deal is too good?"

“You don’t have to apologize. What was bound to happen had happened, and there is no turning back time. We should just move on with our lives and forget about each other.” “Aria, can’t you come back to the company? Look, we will give you whatever you want, just come back, please.” “And why would I? Do you know how much DHL is paying me?” Mark looked at her with a blank expression. Aria did not show mercy as she raised her hand and started to count her fingers, “One, two, three, four, five… ten.” “What?” “Yes. And that was before I won the tender. I can ask for any amount of money I want and they would pay me without hesitation, but are you willing to do that?”

Ava was going to pay for everything she'd done. FLASHBACK ENDS
