By paying the fine, you have been convicted of a Class C Theft in Texas. Unless you are pardoned for this offense, it is on your criminal history for the rest of your life and you cannot expunge it. I would recommend speaking with a local immigration attorney to discuss how this will affect any future attempts to re-enter the United States and your visa/LPR status.
