Office Play: Freaky Geek Series (27 page)

Epilogue

Adam and the rest headed to an onsite F.B.I office. It had been two days since they caught the Black-market Office Supply Gang, which Jeanette dubbed them.

Renee, Noah, Jeanette and Sam brought all the things they ordered off the online auction sites. It matched the orders that were placed recently. They also had office supplies from months back that they were able to confiscate in the past few days.

When all totaled going back a year and half ago, the company had lost over one million three hundred thousand dollars.

The only reason the missing funds where not caught sooner was because they found out that there were some vendors on the take also.

They were right, there were more people involved in this. Twenty-two people total. Laura, Henry and Miriam were flunkies compared to the others they caught.

He and Sam didn’t even want to see Laura. Miriam and Henry just arrived this morning from Alaska and Paris. They went straight to jail. They had nothing to say, except they wanted a lawyer.

What Doug and the other agents he had working on this concluded, was that this wasn’t a woman scorn type of thing that got out of hand.

Now it was fortunate that they could turn the attention to Adam and his IT crew, and made it look like him and the whole IT department, but they decided on this big time stuff on their own to cash in on some extra funds. Adam was just convenient.

Doug came into the room where everyone was. “Well, this was a very interesting case. I must say.”

“I have to give most of my thanks to Jeanette however,” Sam said.

“But Doug—”

“Doug and Renee and Noah never would have come into play, if you hadn’t thought of it. You knew there was something more to this. It wasn’t just stolen supplies,” Sam finished.

“She is right. You always had that women’s intuition,” Doug said.

“So what’s our next step?’ Sam asked.

“File the appropriate charges,” Doug said, taking out some paper. “And we have a lot of them. Embezzlement, wire fraud, grand theft, just to name a few. They will be going away for a long time and depending on what each person did and how deep they were in on this, we’re looking at between ten and thirty five years in federal prison,” Doug said.

“Wow!” Adam said.

“I want to bring all chargers.” Sam said, adamantly.

Sam was never one to pull punches, Adam mused.

“You got it. You know this would normally take months. But since it is a federal case, justice will be swift. The fact they were selling cars to Saudi Arabia has raised a lot of eye brows,” Doug said.

“And I’m sure some faces were made too,” Jeanette said.

Everyone laughed.

Adam passed Jeanette the humus, while Noah got up from his seat and allowed Renee to sit down after coming back from the restroom.

“I must say, this was more interesting than spying on cheating spouses through rose bushes,” Renee said.

Jeanette chuckled. “Hmm. I think that would be thrilling.”

“Nah, you see one spouse sneaking to meet in coffee shops, you’ve seen them all.”

Everyone at the table laughed.

“I’m glad that Jeanette decided to take Sam up on her offer. Besides, who knows more about our messed up books than the person that helped cracked the case of all the missing supplies,” Adam said.

“Hear, hear.” Everyone raised their glasses.

“I’m also taking Adam up on his offer.”

“Oooh,” Renee purred.

“So, you’re willing to give the relationship a go?” Adam asked.

“Yes. I can see for myself that the Strathmore brothers are men of honor and do good by their women. Besides, I know who to get to check on you if I have any doubts,” Jeanette said chuckling as she took a sip of her wine.

Everyone laughed and began digging into a well-deserved Mediterranean feast.
