The system responded promptly, "There's no such thing."
"What?!" Liam exclaimed, genuine surprise coloring his voice. "How come? I mean, in this day and age, pay later is a thing. Everybody's using it. I think you should do the same," Liam said, trying to convince the system of the benefits.
The system fell into a brief silence, its digital gears seemingly turning as it processed Liam's request. After a thoughtful pause, it replied, "It seems it indeed gives so much benefit to the market. I will try to submit a pay-later proposal to higher-ups."
"Wait. Higher-ups? You have higher-ups?" said Liam, surprised by this revelation.
