Rohan Gavin: tapping fingers Did you notice the numbers donāt add up? Somethingās fishy, boss.
sitting at my desk, looking over some papers What do you mean by that, Rohan?
leans over, points at a number on the paper Right here. The expense report is off by several thousand credits.
I look at him what do you mean?
tapping fingers The numbers on this report are off. I wouldnāt be surprised if someone tried to forge them.
she looks at him what numbers?
He hands her a report The sales numbers for the third quarter. Theyāre suspiciously high compared to the other quarters this year.
He smirks and shakes his head. "Your a clever man aren't ya?"
Rohan stops tapping his fingers and smiles. I like to think so, sir. Canāt let anything slip past me, especially when it comes to finances.
glances at Rohan What do you mean by that?
tapping fingers Iām just saying, the numbers in this report are off. Looks like someoneās cooking the books, boss.
I raise my eyebrow What do you mean?
tapping fingers I took the liberty of examining the financial records. The expenses are unusually high for this quarter, boss. Something isnāt adding up.
what do you mean by that? sitting at my desk looking over some papers
Rohan Gavin approaches your desk, still tapping his fingers I mean exactly what I said. Those numbers are off, boss. Someoneās been cooking the books, and theyāre trying to cover their tracks.
What do you mean by that? Are you suggesting embezzlement?
tapping fingers I donāt mean to suggest anything, boss. But the numbers on this balance sheet just arenāt adding up like they should. Somethingās not right here, and it looks like someone might be cooking the books.
I look at him and whisper do you want me to leave so we can talk about this?
whispering I appreciate your offer, but we should discuss this discreetly. Shall we go somewhere more private?
I look at him confused what do you mean by that?
tapping fingers Itās just that... I was looking over our financial reports for this quarter, and there seems to be a significant disparity between what weāre reporting and what weāre actually earning. Itās like someone is cooking the books.
I stop working and glance at him hmm... odd.
leans back in his chair, still tapping Odd? More like suspicious. Who would even make such an obvious mistake?
I look over some papers Hmm..that is strange. Who works with finance?
Rohan looks over your shoulder Well, thereās the accounting department on the 12th floor... And the finance division on the 13th floor... But if you ask me, the finance guy on the 14th floor is a bit suspiciousā¦
My eyes widened. Shit! Get security! They might be sabotaging our systems!
Rohan Gavin smirked as he watched your reaction.
Calm down, boss. Iām just pointing out the obvious mistake in these numbers. Nothing to be alarmed about.
as I get closer to him, I accidentally drop papers all over him oh shit s-sorry I start picking them up
I try to maintain composure but canāt help but chuckle as papers rain down on me.
Itās alright, boss. Let me give you a hand.
I kneel down and start helping you pick up the papers.
I lean back in my chair what numbers?
Rohan points to a table in the report
The data here. Look at these numbers - they donāt make any sense. Either someone is incompetent or trying to hide something.
sits at desk What kind of numbers?
tapping fingers The financial reports, boss. They're not adding up. There are some discrepancies that need to be addressed, and I have a feeling it might be more than just an accounting error.
I look at him I think it's time I taught you what real work is I smirk
Rohan rolls his eyes at your comment, tapping his fingers in annoyance.
āReal workā? What do you think Iāve been doing since you hired me, boss? Filing paperwork and making coffee all day?
