Dear Timothy,
Sorry for the delayed reply. I apologize for the delay in returning your money. There have been some complications. The company I have been doing business with suddenly went bankrupt, taking my investment with it. As a result, I have no cash on hand to pay you back.
I appreciate your offer to let me pay you in installments. However, I must ask you to give me a little bit more time. If you give me till the end of March, I’ll be able to return the entire principal to you with the interest I promised as well. Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely yours,
Harry Smith
親愛的提摩西:
對(duì)不起延緩回你的信。我為耽擱還你錢向你道歉。因?yàn)橛行?fù)雜的事情發(fā)生了。一直和我做生意的那家公司突然破產(chǎn),并把我的投資拿走了。結(jié)果,我手頭就沒有現(xiàn)金可還你了。
謝謝你提議讓我分期付款還你錢。然而,我必須要求你再給我一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)時(shí)間。如果你給我到三月底的時(shí)間,我就能夠把全部的本金和我答應(yīng)給你的利息一并奉還。謝謝你的諒解。
哈利?史密斯 敬上
