Harvey punched number one on his speed dial.
“Harvey Specter! I hope you didn’t call me to brag about your latest conquests.” The voice on the other end of the line said groggily.
“I wouldn’t dream about it Jessica, but I did call to brag,” he paused for a moment to add effect.
“Remember when you told me to butt out of the Martin Channing scandal? Well I didn’t. And as it turns out Martin Channing was innocent. Edward Luther framed him for the crime he committed.”
“And how do you know all of this? Wait! I don’t want to know. Just make sure you don’t drag the whole Pearson Hardman name through the mud. A lot of people lost money over this and are pissed at Channing,” She ended the call with that.
“That was pretty badass what you and Mike did over there.” Harvey said settling in the couch next to Max. Caroline was busy ogling her father’s laptop for clues. After all she knew him best.
“Someone had to do your dirty work for you,” Max teased.
“Nice stove!” Harvey said changing the topic as he pointed at the striking purple oven in the corner trying to make small talk.
“Harvey, I think I got something.” Caroline mused showing him the laptop.It was a visual map of all the clients and properties the Channing group managed. Caroline clicked on the unhide button and the list quadrupled in size. They had intel on the net worth of virtually every New Yorker and their respective fund manager/s.
The knowledge these firms held gave Harvey the heebee jeebees, but at that very moment Harvey realized that they had won.
“There’s an unofficial list of people who claimed to have lost money with Channing, let’s cross reference that with this list,” Harvey said.
“They’re Luther clients,” Caroline confirmed.
“So that’s why the Channing Group purchased Reger Investments Inc. from Luther out of the blue.” She added.
“Wow! Those bastards transferred all those accounts to Channing using a dummy corporation vindicating them and making Martin Channing look guilty,” Max summarized, Harvey and Caroline looked at Max quizzically.
“My brain is bigger than my boobs. So suck it!” Max said chugging her beer. They all laughed at the same time.Harvey looked at feisty brunette in front of him. She was far from the typical supermodel look he went for, but she was certainly a looker. Her body could stop traffic, she had curves in all the right places and he appreciated that. In all honesty, her eyes were what caught his attention from the very first moment they met. She was strong on the outside, but her eyes couldn't hide the truth. Those big beautiful blue orbs were filled with sadness and dreariness. All he wanted to do was to take the pain away.
